By Aaron Holm -
Today of course, is Veterans Day. Today we honor those who are much braver than I could ever be, tucked away behind my keyboard in the security of my humble suburban home. It's a day that should really be celebrated every day of the year. There are Veterans everywhere. They are your brothers and sisters, your mothers and fathers, they are your family and friends. They do a job nobody asked them to do, but something they volunteered for. So, for myself, and for our family here at Hockey Wilderness, Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to those of you who serve our country.
It's been a rough year for the arts. Word started spreading around the web last night that classic artist and poet Leonard Cohen had passed away. I won't pretend that I was ever a huge fan. The most I ever really listened to his work wasn't really his work but the single lyric from Nirvana's song Pennyroyal Tea (Give me Leonard Cohen Afterworld, so I can sigh eternally). I do know however a lot of people loved his work. Here is some of it for you to enjoy.
