The plan is 48 games....and that would mean 24 home and 24 away games....exactly half.
Hope you get to see a good game with your boy.
Best,
Rob

As I loathe and despise snow with all my being, I feel for those who even willingly choose to live in places where it is wretchedly common this time of year. So for those, here's one of my most guilty favorite genres, from a place where the music and the weather is ALWAYS hot! Don't know if any here have ever met Wayne Bergeron or Arturo Sandoval, but they are seriously class acts and two of the most fantastic trumpet players extant!
Recording fidelity is not that great, but these guys are just ripping holes in the stratosphere on this one:

Tonight I give you someone I was first introduced to at the Winnipeg Folk Fest a number of years ago. From Zimbabwe - Oliver Mtukudzi.

Rather appropriate, given the lyrics.
Murder by Death- You Don't Miss Twice(when you're shaving with a knife)

Can't stop listening to this; Angus Stone, Broken Brights, Aussie fellow. I got hooked on this song a few months ago, and now again. The lyrics are excellent 'is that the old man walking in the dark'. I imagine someone's dad, middle aged, maybe my age 50, walking home from the pub, or just out walking, and the son is driving down the road, and his lights illuminate his old man, walking home, in the dark, hunched and forlorn and sad looking, maybe the family is going through hard times now the son is all grown up. and the son feels he, too, will grow old as he sees himself as the the old man but young, and he's a little concerned about that. That's what I get from this song...

Cangooner exits stage left, filled with smug pride that he beat MLA to this one... :)

The song is great but my interpretation is nothing near yours. I will have to watch it a few more times but my first impression is an old man reliving his youth. Finding the key to his girls heart in the fountain of youth.
[QUOTE=32t;1093211]Oh right. I didn't actually watch the video. You know how sometimes you read something or listen to a song and you get an idea about what it's about? Ever learn later that it's not about that at all yet refuse to accept that; saying that it doesn't matter, for you it means what you thought it meant?
That happens to me a LOT.
I get a letter, open it, and it says I'm a valued customer and they love me. Not that I should pay x dollars by x date or else...
[EDIT]
See I'm thinking the line 'when we were young' IS about thinking back, but it's about the father son relationship; the son looking at the father and seeing himself as an old man and the father thinking back both at the same time. I think it's like a duel thing, a 'see both of them thinking at once' thing...
[EDIT] [EDIT]
I think the "we'll grow young" line (rather than the repeated "when we were young" line is that thing you say when you're young "I'm not going to grow old and look/get like that, I know better than that"....
