3” schedule 40 pipe is about 8 pounds per linear foot so if that is what it is the hundred pound value has to be seen against the removal effort. $25??? The more plumb the pole the more likely the concrete base will be substantial. I’ve pulled a few similar bases and it was a lot of work and...

Want to find a group needing to learn focus and organization?? Go to a fast food joint near a high school at lunch time when the cell phone zombies come in. “217, your order. 217, 217 your order. Meanwhile 217 has stepped outside to make a phone call, eventually coming in to get their food and...

Would it be right to say there are problems in certain racial communities? Would it be reasonable to expect a negative mind set from officers constantly seeing the problems repeat? Could that taint the judgment of others in the force? Being "Colour blind" isn't as easy as the theorists imply.

The company booked a one day time management course for the sales force and we expected the usual blah, blah, blah. The guy started off by saying when he sets his goals for the year the first thing he does is book his vacation. WHAT??? He had our attention and I still refer to his comments...

I'm a blind man. Did you want horizontal or vertical slats?

I could get a box shipped to me from Trenton for about $7 prepay and charge. It would cost me about $35 to ship the same box to Peterborough.

Cheques to on line universities for wallpaper with gold seals and calligraphy is a start. I don't think turtle neck sweaters are mandatory anymore. I apologize to the OP for my sarcasm Life coaching is not easy. I don't have any certification in medicine, marriage, psychiatry, physics, law or...

The cost of staff and equipment required to scramble like a WWII air attack would be mind boggling. A bit like a fire department. Using fire as an example the cost per blaze is enormous. If it wasn't for the risk of spreading it might be cheaper to let a lot of the fires burn themselves out...

Name one thing where the powers that be will take a stand and do the right thing.

When my brother was a Toronto motorcycle cop, he asked a mechanic about getting his bike washed. The mechanic replied "What do you think's holding it together?" I watch snippets of the Trump trial and wonder what's holding their economy together. Biden would look a lot better with more...

I can't recall who found some dirt on PM Jean Chretien, IIRC it was Clark or Manning. Chretien was given the documents and turned them over to the RCMP. The RCMP found the documents invalid and they were destroyed. The commissionaire of the RCMP is appointed by the P.M. Hmmmm I don't know...

I'm happy with the level of service I get but parcel post rates are often nuts. If they put rates up to theoretically make more income, they will lose more customers.

GovernmentS Municipal wants more density which means more mail per route. Grid lock from bike lanes will make delivery slower. Provincial wants to open up more rural land which is more expensive to service. Federal picks up the tab for the above changes. I don't know who picks up the tab for...

Perspectives: If JT stopped spending the savings would cover the $748 million in a week.

I think it was at Carters Marine in Port Credit that the owner told me of a propeller he brought in for a guy's outboard. When the guy came in he opened the box and pulled out the prop. As he was handling it one of the blades broke off. Can you imagine if he put the thing on the boat and the...

After the cop gave me my last speeding ticket (Marked down) he told me some naughty bike stories.

I thought about drivers submitting dash cams but to be effective in court the cameras would need to have some sort of certification and the recording driver possibly the status of a notary. More than one person would volunteer. Free policing. The bad part is the recording driver would have to...

Don't they show them Road runner cartoons. Cop seems to be OK but will be sore for a while. Attempted murder charges pending ??

Smurficide?

Wouldn't it be a good idea for them to make some laws first. Pavement lines are suggestions and cautions. Obedience is not mandatory. Same for turn signals. Has anyone asked Dougie if they're planning massive retesting considering the written and road test scams?
