As you may have seen or heard on the Internet, I recently realized my months-long goal of playing the national anthem on guitar at an NHL hockey game, what critics are already calling the greatest national anthem playing of all-time basically. At least far as I’m concerned.

From the time I was 10, I’ve been obsessed with what it means to grow older. I’m curious about what it means to others, of all ages, and so I invite them to take “The Oldster Magazine Questionnaire.” Here, journalist, editor, and “global book ambassador”

The Great Paywall of Coochie To those who have followed this newsletter for a while now, this news may leave you feeling a bit aggrieved, and while I understand the sentiment, I hope you can understand that sometimes in life for things to continue they must change —- and this newsletter is one of such cases. Because despite my best intentions, over the p…

In Canada, Father's Day is observed to honor fatherhood every year on the third Sunday of June. Although not a public holiday, many Canadians celebrate this day to show appreciation and give respect to fathers and father figures. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau

When I first discovered NHL ice hockey as a teenager, I thought the fighting was kind of cool. These goons were willing to beat each other up and risk losing a tooth or ten, just to defend the honor of their teammates. Now that I’m a physician and public health researcher, it’s decidedly less charming to me. We’ve all learned about the

Saturday night, the University of Michigan men’s hockey team will take on the Ohio State Buckeyes for the fifth time this season. Ohio State has claimed three of the four previous meetings—one in a rout, one in a shootout, and one outside at Cleveland’s FirstEnergy Stadium.

For the past few games, the Montreal Canadiens have been icing 11 forwards, and while they sport a surprising 3-2 record in their last five contests, this is a situation that will soon become untenable. They can scarcely afford to lose more players to injury, and the constant double shifting is bound to take a toll sooner than later.

Let’s talk about plus-minus and Moritz Seider. I know, plus-minus is a flawed stat, there are much better overall metrics to judge a player. But when it comes to wins and losses, and a franchise defenseman, plus-minus can be a strong indicator of whether a team will make the playoffs or not.

Reformers and radicals on the American right have had a very tough time these past few decades, and have lost every single major battle that they have conducted against both Democrats and Republicans. One need only look back at the debacle that was the Tea Party, heavily libertarian and constitutionalist in orientation, only to be swallowed up whole an…

Exceptional times call for exceptional players. And that’s why Sean Day made his NHL debut with the Tampa Bay Lightning Tuesday night. You may remember when Day received ‘exceptional player status’ from Hockey Canada to…

Sugar Wafers. These are one of those snacks that everyone seems to forget about. But often when brought up, a chorus of “Oh yeah! I like those things!” can be heard from all directions. And it is true. There really is nothing like a sugar wafer. There are better snacks out there, sure, but they are one of a kind.

Friends, it’s been a disorienting few days in the human world. And the question that’s come up in nearly every conversation I’ve had recently about Ukraine is: What do we “do”? When I ask this question my animal body instinctively switches into fight/flight. Reflexively my pulse quickens, and I’m primed to leap into action.

Here it is, my attempt to recognize some of what encouraged, comforted, challenged, lightened and enlightened me in 2019. Hope you find a few that may be gifts for you as well. Movies & TV: Jeopardy (syndication), I couldn't quit watching James Holzhauer and his run of strategy and guts, all without any hint of second guessing.

Daddy died when she was a child. A sunny afternoon, not dark and drizzly like you’d expect. Soon her momma was gone; not dead, just gone. Years she can’t remember, or doesn’t want to. Sure enough, she married young and had kids quickly. When they were off to school, she’d stare out the front window into the unrelenting nothingness. Divorce shattered her…
