Question 1: Who scored the winning goal of the final game of the 1972 Canada-Russia series?

Question 2 (fill in the blanks): Bob and Doug ________ live in ___ _____ _____ _____ and are famous for the catch phrase ____ ___, __. Their "hit single" was highlighted by the vocals of _____ ___.

Rite of Passage: Get a hockey stick (a wood one) and a tennis ball (ideally it should be fuzz-less). Now go out on the street and stickhandle to the neighbour with the newest double garage door. On the way make sure the ball travels through multiple puddles and collected curb grime piles (ditches will also suffice). At the neighbour's (even better if they have a new car parked outside for rebounds) from a distance of not less than 15 feet, fire 10 shots while invoking the hockey spirits by using phrases like "HE SHOOTS, HE SCORES" and impersonating legends such as Howe,Orr,Beliveau, Hull, Richard, Tremblay, Keon...
Then run like hell. A passing grade of 6 distinct splat marks is required for honorary citizenship

Perhaps we might bestow an Honourary Citizenship, based
on her fine efforts to control this board. It's time a citizen of the basement portion of North America was
promoted to the main floor!

Great work, AW!

You've got my vote! We need lots more female officers,
especially in the Traffic Dept....gives us guys a chance at a reduced fine in the "rare" situation when we
get stopped for "alleged" speeding. Sometimes, we now get a chance to obtain nothing more than a warning. Vive la difference!

As far as I'm concerned, Deb has already been an honorary Canadian for quite some time now...and she didn't have to do any of those "hoser" things as a rite of passage...

Luck and Health
