The rest had previously passed on. Hope they are having a great jam session...
Love the band, got to see them in Burnaby park in the early 90's. : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyFRNr2IgxY

Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice. There’s a certain point at which ignorance becomes malice, at which there is simply no way to become THAT ignorant except deliberately and maliciously.

Regardless of who "wins" an election, they always are up against a Silent Elite. Do you believe the extreme poor who voted for Trump ever thought their non-profit support would be slashed right out from under them?

If there was no cause of death mentioned, it is very likely drugs or suicide. I was told this by the local coroner many years ago.Lady tehMa wrote: ↑May 3rd, 2024, 10:46 pmThere really does seem to be a trend of healthy young athletes dying :(Queen K wrote: ↑May 3rd, 2024, 8:21 am Because healthy sports stars die suddenly all the time, 20 year old Cricket player.

Re: Rex Murphy
Huge loss for Canadian journalism, and everyone who values commons sense over ideology. One of the greatest columnists ever. Always enjoyed reading his pieces.

Re: Rex Murphy
The last of the free thinkers/speakers. Always brought humour to the table when discussing the faux pas of politicians and their foolishness.
RIP Rex.
You are missed.
