This last week was a very busy one, a very demanding one. As I neared the end of my work on Saturday, I looked ahead to finally getting some time off and watching some hockey.
The hockey season started on Thursday night, but I was covering girls volleyball. More games Friday, but I was gone at a football game. I finally had a chance to enjoy some hockey Saturday night.
I watched the "Hockey Tonight" pregame show on CBC while my wife prepared dinner. Then, two things happened, seconds apart: She called me, saying it's time to eat, and CBC started showing a video piece at the start of the actual "Hockey Night in Canada" telecast.
I knew what was waiting for me on the table, nice and hot: chicken parmigiana. It's a tasty meal. But I couldn't get up from the couch: The video piece that started was just so mesmerizing, so outstanding for someone who loves hockey.
Today, I found a video link to it. Take a look ...
Wow! What an outstanding way to show that the new season has begun!
Sometimes I think that if I were a young person just starting out now (in other words, if I weren't an old coot), I would really want to get into video production and learn how to make pieces like that. Who knows, maybe someday I'd get really good at it.

This week will be easier. It should be. It can't get harder, can it?
