Brave Little Liars

Hi.

I just got out of grammar class today and now I feel as if I lost some intelligence. You know that feeling that you get when you're going over a lesson you already know and (I'm sorry, I'm just really amazed at all the traffic going by outside my room.) once the teacher explains it in greater detail, you forget what you already knew, and learn it all over again as if you didn't know anything at all. I hate that because for me, it's like having to go over so much information in my head that it's basically crammed all into one small little pea-sized brain. And now I can't go back to how I knew that rule in the first place, I just have to stick with what I've learned from today's class. And that's where confusion comes into play because one side of my brain thinks from the past, and the other side thinks from the present perspective. I know both sides are right, but it doesn't tell me the reasoning behind the choice. You get me? Actually, I'm just satisfied with the fact that the dog who got stuck in the well WAS fat and he'll be down there for a long time.

Over the past week, I never thought I'd be so attached to politics, that possibly becoming a politician could become a decision I throw up in the air, (hence the title of this post). Because after all, I will have a Journalism background and many politicians DO get started off with their public messages on TV, well...I'm just saying. But hey, I'm smart and I think I know the process of listening and not listening and talking when I'm not supposed to. But running a country? Nah, that's not like me at all...(wink wink)

PURPLE MONKEY DISHWASHER

I'm really sorry. I apologize for that nonsense. My roommates forced me to type it on here and post it so everyone (one person) could see.

I'm doing great up here in the north. I mean, what do you want me to say? I'm irresponsible, I live off of Twizzlers and Pop Tarts and I'm getting my arm removed from a tattoo. That may seem like lies, but I tell you my good friend, believe only what you want to believe and the rest is simply up to you.

So for your information, I'm in Toronto next Thursday for a dentist apt. and then I'm off to the cottage to spend Thanksgiving with my family. Now I got to study for a test, a quiz and a possible excuse on why I need toilet paper. I'm off. Byee.

Oh, to own the Olympic podium again ...

Congratulations, Canada’s Olympic team! You just followed up your country’s greatest sporting moment, the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, by finishing tied with Uganda, Uzbekistan and Grenada in the gold-medal count at the 2012 London Games !  The greatest reality show in history closed yesterday  with all the drama one could imagine. (I really hope they book it for another season). Canada at this Olympics did itself proud in winning medals with humility and losing medals with grace. But here's the thing. Canada would never amount to much knowing we don't have the same advantage as we do in the Winter Olympics. The summer Olympics has a lot more competition and makes it a little harder to qualify knowing we're not on snow or ice. The fact that we won more bronze is a bit heart breaking, but we can certainly do better than one gold. If Canada stays committed to the cause of building a better elite-sport infrastructure in the four years until the Rio Olympics , the likes...

Blue Jays: The Worst Start in Franchise History

Photo: MARK BLINCH/THE GLOBE AND MAIL HAVE U TRIED UNPLUGGING THE TEAM AND PLUGGING THEM BACK IN @bluejays — Emily (@emilydawnlove) April 15, 2017 36-11. That was the Texas Rangers’ record in one-run games last year. Now look at the Blue Jays. With the exception of one or two games, they have had the winning or tying run at the plate in the 9th inning during every loss this season. They’ve made the best reliever in baseball sweat more than any team did during all of last season. Yet they’re 1-9 to start the year. No one could have predicted this. A team who is coming off of back to back ALCS appearances, who had sky high expectations have now lost 7 games in a row to start the season, and the only team in the MLB without two wins. The Jays start to the season is the worst in franchise history and although it is still very early, the Jays will need to stir together some wins soon, or it may be a long season. The start to the season is a huge shock, they started off by g...

Give Me The Cutter, Good Doctor

(Image via MLB) You never forget the players that made you fall in love with the game. It's a sad day for baseball, and for the Toronto Blue Jays, and his fans. More importantly though, he was a husband and father. As much as we will miss him, it pales in comparison to the loss his family has suffered. He pitched for the Jays during so many losing seasons but remained a role model to so many of us. Roy Halladay had a 203-105 career record. He went at least seven innings in 40 of those losses and had fifteen career complete game losses. A true professional. He left Toronto after giving us everything he had. He has left this life with so much more to give. I know the Jays were waiting for him to appear on the Hall of Fame ballot to see if he got elected (and therefore retire his number), but I have to assume they'll put him on the Level of Excellence and retire his jersey number this season. Halladay was the lone bright spot for me when I first started watchi...
