Our love shines.

The Stanley Cup has returned to Whitehorse YT for this year's Hockey Day in Canada.


I've been watching the festivities and highlights have included:
- A special feature about two girls from Haines Junction YT, the little town I lived near when I was up north. There were shots of the place I had soup each Friday, the place where we took hot showers, the junction where the Alaska Highway splits. Good memories.
- A story about an annual backyard hockey tournament in Cornwall ON. It looked like it was colder there than it was in Whitehorse today and I am not surprised.
- Ron McLean, sporting a Hudson's Bay Company wool coat with yellow, red, green, and blue stripes, and quoting Charles Schultz, "three things everyone loves to watch: a babbling brook, a crackling fire, and a Zamboni going round and round."
- Blue Rodeo!

I'm really glad I've got a lot of skating days scheduled for the next few weeks!

Blogging about La Blogotheque.

In the spirit of new blog posts, I bring you this:

Go here and waste the rest of your time reading about interesting bands and watching impromptu music videos filmed throughout Paris and New York. Et, pour mes amis bilinguale, allez ici. (I'm not sure if that was correct, I just made it up from what I've been picking up lately in Corntown).
