Today's Tidbit

I predicted in April that Vancouver would win the Stanely cup. In the back of my mind I was hoping they would and that maybe by doing so there would also be no stupid riot aftermath. Well, the Canucks lost and the rioting is still going on at midnight. It's pretty much a global embarrassment I don't have much to say about it. This is the typical scene downtown now. Image, thanks to ctv.ca. I was all ready to throw Luongo in the fire but the truth is whether he let in 200 goals or zero goals nobody on the Canucks could score a single goal game 7. The entire team stepped away from the plate.

Today's Tidbit

On this day in 1975 the band America reached No.1 on the US singles chart with "Sister Golden Hair". It's a song I haven't heard in a while but definitely did grow up listening to it and do like it a lot. Enjoy yet another trip down musical memory lane over dinner tonight.

Macaroni & Meat Sauce with Tossed Salad

Sharp cheddar cheese instead of parmesan and different spicing made for a more beefy macaroni then a typical spaghetti. I suppose the older we get the less pasta we can eat. We all may as well dig in while we can!

Today's Tidbit

The quality of the video helped me decide what today's tidbit would be. In 1959 Chuck Berry released the album "Chuck Berry is on Top". This is a clip from the low-fi movie scene from "Go, Johnny, Go from the same year. It was blended with an hq recording so it's not an original mix.

The reality is this was really only a compilation album with just one new single entitled "Blues for Hawaiians". I couldn't find a Video or mention of that song on You Tube. It must not have been one of his more popular efforts, I'd never heard of it myself either.
