Nobody I know said Adam, Leo's baby, was the eldest.
That's for sure... I know it wasn't you. I didn't even notice the error

. Passed right over it; too busy lookin' at the kid

.
Somebody I know said he was the youngest with the hit "Cry, Ophelia," born in 1972.
To be sure... do know who that was

Lizzy, I do believe your mentor has made her own screaming error.

P.S. And you call yourself a fan!

So James Adams let the news out. He's an old Leonard Cohen journalist, he wrote some of the best articles about Ten New Songs, Dear Heather, and - we remember - was the guy who covered management's affair, and also recently was the one who openly asked GG Award's jury why they ignored Book of Longing.
I think this is all what we will get. Baby's name, height, or pictures are family's bussiness, not ours. Very nice news, and new beginning I guess (they do say that one generation is always skipped. If Adam was sometimes, as LC admitted, damaged by his father's career or break-up with Suzanne (unofficial mariage it was, ceremony was done without state/priests), I'm sure the grand-son will get too much love;-) As always by grandparents!

Subject: ... or could they not resist
... the double-entendre of James Adams being James, Adams's Cohen... Lorca will produce her own Cohen, but this one [James] is Adams's.
Or is it cuz it flows easier and is unique?

Mystery solved. Looking forward to hearing Leonard's grandson's name

He *loves* LC — they all do over there; and, they're all smokin' . . . cigars (or eating valentine-cigar chox). You're right, Tom; James is one of the best; nature of the medium, errors will be made; others will be blamed. La vie. I've only seen about a million of them; but, none so awful as the CBC information. I blame CSIS

.
Glad to see you around Forumtown with so many good images blessing our bettered selves with such an eye banquet, too.
L8R. Ed.'s back to scream-team time. L!
Love, BoSoHappyICouldCreamMyJeans
p.s. I agree with Jason and you both; we'll have a veritable feast of Coheniana (after twenty years of heaven, I guess

)
p.p.s. Abso-right-o about keeping distance and respecting privacy; some things are simply not for sharing; and, The Globe knows that; this is a time for distance, circumspection, and caring (or, IOW, class, elegance, grace, and morning-glorious joy a.k.a. It Ain't About Me-Me-Meanderthals)

Erratum: for "oldest" read "elder".

Fantastic news! Congratulations to the whole family, and to the newborn who is the first grandchild of Leonard Cohen.
