It's a Cinderella story...
Colleen Jones would have loved this.

And I believe she watching that last shot and yelling hurry hard… hurrrryyyyy haaaaaard.

Her Nova Scotia Team Black is into the playoffs at the Olympic Curling Trials.

Colleen Jones asked me to interview her a couple of months ago during a chemotherapy appointment.

She told me to write one heck of a story. I hope I did her proud.

About always believing something wonderful is about to happen.

My tribute to Colleen: www.cbc.ca/sports/olymp...
Colleen Jones was something wonderful to happen for anyone who knew her | CBC Sports
Colleen Jones was a tour de force. When you were with her you felt invincible and that anything was possible. She made you a believer.

Did this happen? 20 minutes into the broadcast and not even an acknowledgement of her passing.
There will be a moment of silence for Colleen Jones ahead of tonight's women's draw at the Olympic Curling Trials.

Many of her family members, former teammates and friends will be here.

High emotion in her hometown and home province.

LEARN how @loevy.com’s Matt Topic used FOIA to uncover Mueller Report redactions about Don Jr and why FOIA and Congressional subpoenas should have gotten us Epstein files without needing a new law. Shocking info (what else can explain my expression).

I got cheese out of the fridge. Set it down on the counter & turned around to find a golden retriever had appeared out of thin air.

Many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find my way over
Wandering I am lost
As I travel along the white cliffs of Dover
Many rivers to cross
And it's only my will that keeps me alive
I've been licked, washed up for years
And I merely survive because of my pride

Someone complained that I've been talking about fascism too much lately. So, naturally, today's Low Quality Ad is for this No Gods, No Kings pin. Keep the complaints coming, pal.

These must be the people who keep saying, "I didn't vote for this."
Again, to the people who didn’t vote because of laziness or put Harris against an unrealistic purity test.
A BIG fuck YOU.
