They say that no two snowflakes are alike, but I’ve noticed that you don’t seem to find many identical potatoes either. Or meatballs, unless they’ve come out of some sort of meatball factory. A good, homemade meatball will bear minimal resemblance to its neighbour, in a steaming pot of spaghetti sauce.

Where was I going with this? Probably nowhere, but now that I’ve squandered my opening, how about those Pennsylvania hockey teams – two of them no less –still standing in the NHL playoffs. I wish I could have seen a Flyers game while we were in Philly last year, but it was summertime, and aside from NHL playoff games, there’s just not enough ice left over in rinks to be playing a lot of hockey.

Or snowflakes, for that matter. Even if there had been snowflakes, statistically speaking, none would have been identical.

And now I’ve just realized that there’s one more thing to add to my “every-one-is-different” list: hockey players.

Although, I have to assume that the same thing could be said about basketball players, jockeys, and professional landscapers.

And lawyers, accountants, plus even Las Vegas magicians. And rodeo cowboys.

Sheesh – even the actors that play Ronald McDonald on TV commercials don’t look all that similar to each other, aside from the red hair and clothing.

I think I’ve just turned my world upside down…

Chow for now!
