@Willie Oleson is my #1 suspect. Some of those videos scream Little House. Unless of course you are in cahoots with @Ome. But I still think it was Willz.

Winning song nominated by @Emelee


But…?

Who suggested this theme? Willie? Emelee? There's a bit of a battle going on between the two, but which one is correct?

Whoever this turns out to be, it won't be difficult to guess correctly when we do the Sea Shanty songs.

If it wasn't Emelee then it was Richard but he didn't play this round (he also hasn't been online for a while so that could be the reason).
Ome had great folk songs in his list but somehow I can't see this being his idea. No. It just can't be.

I thought maybe Willz had asked Omie to say it was Omie's idea but that it really was Willz'. A plot like that would have been more believable than it actually being Omie's idea.
