The great thing about the Internet is telling people what to think. We fully support this wondrous new age of told-ya-so and were only too happy to discover the following:

Um, actually Carly with her then husband James Taylor!
Fair enough, fellow blogger! (Flobber?)
So we did some soul-searching, cross-talking, frog-hopping, and workshopping and realized that the picture I was talking about that Templeby (my co-editor, grape-peeler, and suitemate) miscombobulated and mistakenly ordered our tech team to track down was NOT the famous picture of Donovan and Carly sitting in Harvard Square (Don’s hometown and where he first learned to play drums) in 1977:
But wouldn’t you know: Our research staff soon informed us that this photo too has been incorrectly identified by the famous Phil Ochs archive!
Turns out that’s not Donovan, that’s Harry “Cat’s Cradle” Chapin Carpenter! And the loverly lady by his side? No, it ain’t future wife-of-Baby-St.-James-Infirmary but none other than Toxic Twin Steven Tyler!
Confused? You will be after this week’s episode of Laffzone!
