Say it isn't so....

So who said it best?? Bon Jovi or Gareth Gates?? Does it really matter??

"Say It Isn't So" - Bon Jovi

I just can't believe

It was all a lie

No man in the moon

Just a big light in the sky

I hear Disneyland

Might lose Mickey Mouse

In some giant hostile corporate shake-up

Tell me it's a nightmare

Please wake me up

(Say it isn't so)

I found a book of matches

From someplace we've never been

How come you hang the phone up

The minute I walk in

Last night I had this dream

That I was losing you

I woke up in a cold sweat shaking

Rescue me my heart is breaking

Say it isn't so (tell me it's not true)

Say it isn't so (I believe in you)

Tell me it's a lie (I don't need no proof)

Say everything's all right (couldn't be, not you)

Say it isn't so

Superman don't fly

They did it all with strings

Elvis Presley died

They deep fried the king

Like some tacky cheesy bathing beauty

Dancing on the beach in a bad b-movie

Say it isn't so (tell me it's not true)

Say it isn't so (I believe in you)

Tell me it's a lie (I don't need no proof)

Say everything's all right (couldn't be, not you)

Say it isn't so (don't give up on me)

Say it isn't so (don't give up on you)

Get me through the night (we'll make it through)

Make everything all right (couldn't be, not you)

Say it isn't so...

Say it isn't so (tell me it's not true)

Say it isn't so (I believe in you)

Tell me it's a lie (I don't need no proof)

Say everything's all right (couldn't be, not you)

Say it isn't so (don't give up on me)

Say it isn't so (don't give up on you)

Get me through the night (we'll make it through)

Make everything all right (couldn't be, not you)

Say it isn't so

"Say It Isn't So" - Gareth Gates

Skies are dark its time for rain

Final call you board the train

Heading for tomorrow

I wave goodbye to yesterday

Wipe the tears that hide your face

Blinded by the sorrow

How can i be smiling like before?

When baby you don't love me anymore

Say it isn't so

Tell me your not leaving

Say you changed your mind now

That I am only dreaming

But this is not goodbye

This is starting over

If you want to know, I don't want to let go

So say it isn't so

Ten to five at least we tried

We're still alive but hope has died

As they closed the door behind you

Whistle blows the turns of steel

Shake the ground beneath the wheels

As I wish I never found you

How can I be smiling when your gone?

Will I be strong enough to carry on?

Say it isn't so

Tell me your not leaving

Say you changed your mind now

That I am only dreaming

But this is not goodbye

This is starting over

If you want to know, I don't want to let go

So say it isn't so

Miles and miles to go

Before I can sing

Before i can lay my love for you to sleep

Oh darling, no

I got miles and miles to go

before anyone will hear me laugh again

Say it isn't so

Tell me your not leaving

Say you changed your mind now

That I am only dreaming

But this is not goodbye

This is starting over

If you want to know, I don't want to let go

So say it isn't so

Say you changed your mind now

That I am only dreaming

But this is not goodbye

This is starting over

If you want to know, I don't want to let go

So say it isn't so

If you want to know, I don't want to let go

So say it isn't so

I heard another rumor today. More bad news. Just say it isn't so!!!!

Is this really the last year for the Kananaskis Indoor Pro Rodeo?? Really??? It can't be!!!! Yet another casualty in this community. Whether it is a casualty of apathy, lack of volunteers or council's recent actions and decisions, does it really matter why?? All that matters is that it is happening all over the Pass.

Once again it looks as if we will be losing another big attraction here in the Crowsnest Pass.

In fact, other than local historical sites (like the Frank Slide, Leitch Collieries - which has been closed for a year, and the Underground Mine Tour, etc.) the Rodeo was the second biggest draw to bring in crowds to the Crowsnest Pass, next to Thunder in the Valley.

So what does that leave us with??

I really hope this is just a really bad and really late April Fool's joke. Either way, I'm not laughing.
