New Thunder season approaches, Thunderstruck gets queued
I’ve purposely not listened to AC/DC’s Thunderstruck all summer long. Great song on a great album, don’t get me wrong, but I heard it enough all winter at Airdrie Thunder games that it has lost some of its lustre.

Travel is one of the best educators

What's in a name? A rose by any other name would smell as sweet
Better half, little Mrs., ball and chain, old lady. Call me what you want, I’m married, hitched, the knot is tied and I took the plunge.
