It's a small world!

I own that LP also and it is one of my most prized possessions. This record was pressed just three blocks from where I grew up. At the Fleetwood Recording Studio in Revere. I used to walk behind there all the time and pull "defective" pressings out of the dumpster.

My father worked at Logan Airport and some of the Bruins were semi-regulars at a bar in East Boston that he used to go to. John McKenzie, Don Awrey, Carol Vadnais, they'd often show up there after games. Sometimes even BEFORE games. Those were definitely different times.

Wow! I lived in Saugus for a couple of years after college. I went to a lot of movies at the Showcase Revere with girls from Malden and Everett (easy Everett!).

No question, those were different times. More like "Slap Shot" than today's world.

Out here in Ohio we've embraced the Jackets in a huge way, but this foolishness is killing the league.
