Glad you guys enjoyed it. :) I half expected a bunch of crusty, jaded "Seen it before" responses.

And I live where it almost never snows.

Well I come from the same place Geddy does, where there is snow on the ground as we speak (and ice - it was a treacherous 24 hours actually!). In fact, my Dad grew up on a street called Kings Park Boulevard, smack dab in the Danforth and Pape area of Toronto ("La Villa Strangiato" fans take note). Tobogganing was a part of childhood for me and everyone I knew. :)

We really need a video of the Rush crew playing hockey. Way back circa Hemispheres I read in a music mag that they would rent the ice at a rink in whatever city they were playing in and have a game of pickup hockey after the gig. I even wrote them a fan letter urging them to rent the rink only five minutes from my house when they came to play Long Island, and of course asked if I could join them.

LOL! I love the Rick Mercer Report! I'd heard about that clip but never seen it. Thanks for posting. Hubby and I got a good laugh out of it.

Nice! Thanks for posting. No snow here yet but there will be soon enough here on the doorstep to the Great White North.

Well it all melted already, and the last two days have been so mild that nobody is even wearing jackets. Long gone are the winters of my youth, that's for sure.



Pfft! Seen it before!

:D

D'oh! ;)

Yesterday was the first snowfall of the season here in the GTA, and while it wasn't much, it was enough to prompt a bump of this thread!

I never got a reply! I so badly wanted to strap on my goalie pads and stare down Dirk, Pratt and Lerxst!!
