Carrie Hunt? Ummm...

"Sea Hunt"?

Look, that's unfortunate, but "Mike Hunt" is far more unfortunate...

So is "Don Duck", and I knew a guy in Scarboro with that name in the early 70's. He wouldn't let anyone call him "Donald" for some reason... :-)

Speaking of which, there was a real live folksinger named "Duck" Donald. He used to play with Cathy Fink. No joke.

There's also the famous Toronto musician/painter Joe Mendehlson, who changed his name to Toronto Joe Mendhelson, then Sophisto Joe Mendehlson, and finally Mendehlson Joe! And no, I don't know where the damned "h" goes in "Mendehlson". I'm not even sure if there is an "h". His art stinks, but it's better than Bob Dylan's...at least I think it is. Well, it's almost a dead heat.

Dylan's a way better songwriter.
