Like the song says, it’s a long, long while
from May to December. Of course, right
now it seems like a long time from May
to mid-June for all the temporarily single
people suffering through hours of hockey
nightly during the Stanley Cup playoffs.
The INside Zone strongly recommends
three options for you at this time: become
a hockey fan; become a hockey fan; or,
become a hockey fan. Despite what the
federal politicians say, it’s the only thing
that truly binds Canada together. The two
official languages would speak together
loadest if Toronto met Montreal in the
Cup final; the Zone suspects that would
do more for national unity than any old
Accord. If you need a break ...check out
the latest on your college colleagues.
