keberoxu, I just noticed that your question about my member name and my response were deleted from where I first saw/answered it (the FAQ), so:

When I was a child in the 70s, we had an old timer family friend. We were all he had, so he was around us a lot, even going with us on our vacations (we always had my father, mother, two grandmothers, great aunt, and the old timer, Walt, usually going down to Panama City Beach, FLA back before it became a Spring Break mecca). Each year on the way down there, Walt, in the back seat with me, would look over from time to time and say "We are lost chickens in high weeds, ain't we?".

He also taught me what he knew of 'Old Dan Tucker' and would often sing it to/with me, usually several times each instance, he knew I loved it, and he did too. He passed while I was still a child, I think maybe around age 8 or so, but both of those things stuck with through now at nearly 50.
