    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    A guy I know has his investments spread over two or three advisors. When an advisor asks him why his reply is "You told me to diversify." Similarly, the only EV I'd go for is hybrid. I'm ICE now because the capital outlay doesn't let EVs work for me

    The meathead will not be down for breakfast

    All I've heard so far about Rob Reiner from Hollywood is positive. The scuttlebutt is his son did it. If he did, the "Why" is going to be the #1 question and speculation will be rampant.

    The Official Ongoing Kitchener-Waterloo and surrounding areas thread

    Anna Maes IMO was better before she sold it. Still good. Some Sunday morning I want to park by the Mennonite church in Elmira and watch the Mennonite squids tear off for home after church service.

    The Official Ongoing Kitchener-Waterloo and surrounding areas thread

    Skipping over the thread, but a member put us onto Bonny Lou's in Floradale, just north of Elmira. Good food, quaint Mennonite atmosphere.

    Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride

    I've often envisioned riding a vintage BMW airhead while wearing a suit and tie. Alas I don't have a BMW and my suit no longer fits.

    The Bad Drivers of Ontario Thread

    I wasn't aware of the fine. How does one pursue a settlement? Do fines from violating the HTA go to the government or the victim? Assuming they go to the government, how does the injured party get compensation and how long does it take? A lot of insurers don't cover glass anymore. Who is...
