Did Canadian TV Hockey commentator Don Cherry go to far when he wore a crime scene to work?

The Don Cherry story revisited

The AwfulAnnouncing website said Don Cherry murdered hockey fashion, and wore its blood all over his white suit. He came to the game wearing the crime scene.

This is what you look like when you have a murder at 8:00 and scheduled for work at 9.00.

AwfulAnnouncing.com once said that Cherry often appeared on Hockey Night in Canada looking like he had just skinned a sofa.

Just who is Don Cherry, anyway?

He is a Canadian ice hockey commentator, sports writer, retired professional hockey player and NHL coach.

Eighteen months ago we posted a report about Don Cherry wearing a 'blood stained 'suit and also showed some of his other outrageous suits.

When he appears on Coach’s Corner on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, he really should provide his partner with sunglasses because of his outlandish wardrobe.

He wears suits that would shock the color scientists at Crayola.

Report: A returned chunk of Stonehenge solves long-standing monument mystery

From a Live Science report:

More than 60 years ago, a worker at Stonehenge kept a drilled-out cylinder from one of the monument's massive upright stones during a restoration project, and last year, on the eve of his 90th birthday, returned the stone. A new analysis of it has now helped solve the mystery of where the giant stones were quarried.

Stonehenge as it appears today

Chemical analysis has shown that the drilled-out stone — along with almost all of Stonehenge's most massive stones — came from West Woods in Wiltshire, just 15 miles (25 kilometers) from the Neolithic monument, said University of Brighton geoscientist David Nash, who led the study.

While many of the smaller "bluestones" that surround Stonehenge were cut in the Preseli Hills in the west of Wales, more than 140 miles (230 km) away, little was known before about the large sandstone boulders at Stonehenge, which are known as "sarsens."

Report: Black Lives Matter's anti-police brutality crusade obscures violent, Marxist agenda

From a report at the link below:

Beyond Black Lives Matter’s drive to eliminate police brutality is a far more extensive leftist ideology that would upend American economic and social life, according to an examination of BLM leaders’ writings and interviews.

BLM’s principal founders have sought guidance from Karl Marx, Mao Zedong and Venezuelan strongman Nicolas Maduro. One talks of the “psychosis of whiteness.”

BLM leaders say they want capitalism abolished. Sixty years since the civil rights era began, America is still a place where the state routinely oppresses Blacks, as the world seeks their “demise,” the group alleges.

“Black Lives Matter is an ideological and political intervention in a world where Black lives are systematically and intentionally targeted for demise,” the BLM website says.

BLM’s leader in Greater New York talks of pending violence.

“If this country doesn’t give us what we want, then we will burn down this system and replace it,” Hawk Newsome said on Fox News.

King Soopers grocery stores in Colorado are not giving change back in coins due to shortage

Customers who pay cash at King Soopers stores can’t get their change back in coins right now. Kroger, the company that owns King Soopers, said the Federal Reserve is experiencing a significant coin shortage during the coronavirus pandemic.

Customers who pay cash can choose to have their change loaded onto a customer loyalty card, and the money will be automatically applied to their next purchase. Or, customers may choose to donate the change to Kroger’s Zero Hunger | Zero Waste Foundation, an initiative aimed at eliminating hunger in the U.S.

Customers can still pay with debit and credit cards.

Kroger is the largest supermarket chain in the U.S. — with nearly 3,000 grocery stores in 35 states. There are about 20 locations in the Denver metro area.
