Video killed the radio star.

I was more referring to how expensive things are today compared to 20 years ago combined with the fact that I think the competition for getting into university and landing that desired job is much more intense that it used to be. Just my opinion.

Oh I know, I just figured the other comments were more geared toward the "kids and their words" crowd.

But I think it'll be fine in the future. I really do think universal post-secondary education is going to become widespread and we'll continue to build the infrastructure to teach. Job market is an issue though - we already don't have much of one to begin with in Canada.

Education is somewhat over rated. It helps to have some but in today's world it's who you know not what you know. The world needs ditch diggers too.

Classic.

It's easy to grin
When your ship has come in
And you've got the stock market beat

But the man worthwhile
Is the man who can smile
When his shorts are too tight in the seat

Love Judge Smails.

As for the next generation??

You'll get nothing and like it!!!

Happy retirement. I guess. Always found him kinda dirty but he was definitely an over-achiever.

Morrow retires after 15 NHL seasons

He was the Brendan Gallagher of his time, Kenny.

What you know definitely matters a lot. But the kicker of course is that what you know isn't necessarily a function of how much time you spent falling asleep in a college lecture hall, as learning can happen in lots of places and in lots of ways. Like sticking your dick in the vacuum cleaner for instance

Well, Crosby's having a pretty good game. Both of his goals were very pretty.

 

[Darkstone42]

The refs on the other hand, oof.

Staal speared Rust in the nads, which was ignored. Rust and Staal got offsetting minors. Shortly after that, Bonino got called for a pretty soft hold. Hagelin got tripped and called for a dive. I will never understand calling embellishment on a trip. Trips make you fall down, that's what trips are.

 

[Darkstone42]

Kessel has also been excellent today. Beautiful setup of Bonino, great patience to let the play develop.
