“Gentleman Jim”

Former boxer/streetfighter John James (AKA “Gentleman Jim”) strikes a pose for the camera on whyte avenue. He is fifty years old, and a passionate preacher of racist humour. Can you guess his age?

I wanted to steal that book

I read a great book at my catering shift today (it was in some atrium of the Glenrose hospital, which housed a very small library). The book contained the memoirs of some Canadian journalist called Charles Lynch who had among other things, such as following Che Guevara as he stomped out of a speech by the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury right into the bathroom where he relieved himself and gave a hearty “LIBERDAD,” been a war correspondent during World War II.
