A Miracle Remembered


30 years ago today...a Miracle at Lake Placid occurred when the misfit, amateur hockey team for the United States beat the best hockey team in the world and heavily favored Soviet Union team, at Lake Placid. USA went on the win the gold the next day against Finland. But it was this game that punctuated a time when the world had changed.

About Me

My photo
Thank you for viewing my blog. I nearly wrote "weblog," only hesitating because I realized I would sound very un-hip....a word which inofitself is un-hip. Ugh. Such is my life. My 17-year-old son was once telling me a story about a school friend who was getting on his nerves because this friend was so emotional. I was sharing this story with a youngish co-worker recently, describing his friend as "emu." She looked at me with a puzzled expression and asked, "do you mean "emo?" Believe it or not, I used to be cool. Anyway, maybe that gives you a little insight into my life experiment, where everyday is a new challenge. I hope I won't ramble and that I'll bring you a little laughter in my attempt to be thought-provoking.
