Two Things - Not Related in the Least

My boys, the Calgary Flames, are on a big roll in the NHL. In the month of November, the team has been on fire, winning 10 of 11 games. This puts them in a tie for first in the Northwest Division of the Western Conference. Last month, I was worried because the Flames were playing terrible.

On a completely unrelated note, I just heard that Britain and Wales have introduced 24-hour drinking (AFP).

"Those in favour argue it will usher in more civilised, continental-European style socialising -- while those against fear a tide of vomit and urine as booze-fuelled louts become free to binge-drink and cause mayhem around the clock."

Yikes. From what I've seen from my British friends, this can only mean mayhem. Then again, it doesn't matter how late you can drink if you're passed out at 11 PM.
