    COVID and the housing market

    Nothing says more than love than a prepaid funeral plan. I had never heard of such a thing before. I know someone who died last year at 97. They had bought this plan decades ago. Nothing like pre-planning your whole life based on the inevitable. Wise investors who get what they paid for. Or you...

    The Bad Drivers of Ontario Thread

    My son will be retiring to Wendake Beach and get out of the insane rat race. Why would you move from God's country into the over-crowded city. GF I gathered? Even for twice the wage it's going to get eroded by higher stress, insurance, rent, wasted time in commuting, oh and did I mention stress...

    Tim's Credit Card

    Ever since the franchise was recently under new owners, the menu has deteriorated. As a formerly loyal regular customer I don't buy there anymore, this inflated interest charge on their cards would definitely be another log on the fire. There is profit which is good, and then there is unashamed...

    The "Official" Watch Thread and all Things Horological

    Ya, you can pay too much at an auction if you don't know the value of the item. Case in point, I had a friend who went to a farm estate auction once. He noticed a parrot up for auction and decided he'd like to bid for it, in hopes of getting it cheap. His opening bid was for $50 but...

    Stop the War of Drivers Caroline Mulroney

    With so many nuts on the road already with no physical disabilities, tell me, is it better to ere on the side of caution or just be loose with objective reasoning? Better that it is harder to get it back than easier. I was out for a year and never complained because I let my issue work through...

    Any Spyder owners here? On the hunt for my wife.

    Quebec has always been different in that it is very European. Montreal was my favourite city in Canada because of the cuisine, beautiful women (is it okay to say that?), fashion... you name it. They speed and drive much more aggressively and they tend toward driving European cars a lot more like...

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Back to my point about the beginning of any new technology. The Atlantic article on the madness of ridiculous equivalent horsepower needed to pull (from light to light) a 3 ton vehicle all to get a 70 kilogram person to their destination. EVs Bringing Out the Worst in Us . We still have a long...

    Speed camera threshold?

    Camera's can't negotiate. A policeman neighbour told me any thing over the set speed limit is speeding to the camera. AI will rule the world one day and we will be its slaves, according to Elon Musk.

    Motorcycle Supershow - International Center - Jan 6-8

    What did I buy last year? Crotchless chaps. And now my son won't ride with me nor be seen with me. Might turn them into a leather seat or custom mud flaps.:love:

    Got a ticket from a camera. Defense?

    Some whiners are pretty disagreeable and stubborn. But that's life and we need to live with it. I agree that some radar traps are set up where there is opportunity, there are no houses or pedestrians in the suburbs and the posted speed is ridiculously low for conditions, like Dufferin north of...

    Pics from my '22 Southwest Bike Trip

    Great pictures. On the first pic I momentarily thought it was Million $ Bogan who thinks his HD is an adventure/dirt bike, but I quickly surmises that it wasn't him because it didn't have scratches, dents and a windshield held in place by bungee cord.;) I can appreciate the horseback riding...

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    We are at the Model T stage. I'm expecting huge increases within the next 10 years, or the whole thing will fall falt on it's face. I salute and encourage all the pioneer EV owners in building knowledge and real world statistics for the manufacturers to make in future improvements.. When it's...

    Got a ticket from a camera. Defense?

    Wise words...ahem..., avoid a small ticket in exchange for a thousands of $ accident and inconvenience (speaking from experience driving behind guys like you). They only put the speed cameras in places which are highly sensitive to speed, usually because that stretch of road has a history of...

    Burning Man

    Hmmm...desert in summer, no water for bathing or drinking for one week? Regular camping looks like nirvana. Empty the bucket before you kick it.
