My wife and daughter got into a bit of a tiff Sunday regarding the former picking up the latter early from a party to prevent her from lacking sleep and worsening a cold.
Which naturally reminded me of Jan. 5, 1972, when my mother would not allow me to attend a Rangers-Blues game because I was recuperating from a cold and she felt a cold hockey arena might be bad for me.
The Rangers won, 9-1. Jean Ratelle had a hat trick and two assists.
Still haven't forgiven her, may she rest in peace.

As an orange beanied vendor for Harry M I could have sold you an ice cream or a soda at that game and cured whatever ailed you.
(maybe the ice cream could have......not a chance on the soda).
Such is the dark side of serendipity.
