Do or die time for the Leafs. Having the immediate family gathered to cheer them on meant explaining the difference between offside and icing more times than I would care to, but how often do you get to have that family quality time together for a Leafs game 7?* As...
I’ve seen a few salt docks in my days. Isles de la Madeliene for one. Then there was Windsor Salt and of course Goderich. But the Parry Sound salt docks?* What’s that all about? The things you learn while drinking beer. Then I got thinking about the expression “salt...
There was Uncle Al, the Kiddie’s Pal, always suffering a bit from the 40-ounce flu. The McCartney’s Uncle Al was hands across the water. Weird Al might be a fun uncle, and of course a bedtime story from Uncle Alice may invoke nightmares.* Or our favourite history...
