Ick. I’ve had a cataract in my left eye for a couple of years now. Went to the surgeon here for a consultation and he recommended either one eye similar to my current vision or both with the trifocal lenses. After 60 years it would suck to switch from nearsighted to farsighted.

Bell doesn't make it super easy to cancel. You need to call the number, and cancellation isn't readily labelled in the early options. My concern now is that to get the shipping label to send them back their stuff, you need to put in an order number under the label Internet - Disconnect...

Only took me a couple of hours to get this computer back onto the internet. Some of the hard connections no longer wanted to operate. We'll see how long it takes to get the rest of the house up and running. Will start the cancellation process with Bell tomorrow.

Did Sam finally leap home after the end of Enterprise? What happened to Al?

It’s almost half the price of Bell. For now.

Just switched over to Primus today through Costco. I’ll see if they use the existing Bell infrastructure. We kept Bell through Covid, because Sue was working from home, and the reliability was 1,000 times better than the cable lines. Now we’re going to cut the price almost in half. Did anyone...

This. If there’s a frozen link or two it can end up super tight in one position and super loose in another.

Is there a limit as to how much the speed can drop on local roads? Practically it’s been in 20 kph chunks, most places I’ve seen, but I don’t know if that’s because of a regulation. One place it dropped from 80 to 50; people complained and the 50 sign was eventually moved to the other side of...

I’d be a little upset if they were still negotiating locations and revenue with a U.S. company. I favour red light cameras, over speed cameras, in the sense that you either did it or didn’t, and many of the dangerous situations are at intersections.

How many motorcycles have you passed that were in the right hand lane? I’d have put it in bad drivers, but I’m lazy today. I leaned the wrong way and put my lower back out.

I got a booster vaccination yesterday for shingles. Anyways, the muscle the put it in started cramping and that worked itself down to my baby finger, and down my back. So at the moment a have a really sore spot on my shoulder blade, that seems related. It can’t be getting out of bed the...

I lied, or typoed. It’s 12 separate 15 amp circuits, so only six split outlets. Three are on the back counter with the stove, one on each side counter, and one on the island. Eight circuits are on a 40 amp pony panel along with the pool stuff, the fridge and an unknown (so far) kitchen light...

Started going through my electrical panel to check where each switch/plug is wired. What a complete dog’s breakfast. There are supposedly two spare circuits on different sides of the bus, and none on the pony panel. Who needs nine split kitchen outlets? We’re thinking of getting a hybrid...

That was how my mother in law died very quickly. Not the best way to go.

Dirt bikes are dangerous! You all ride, so you should know better. We had a really old 40 hp mercury, that was perfect for tubing. You could hit the wake just right and it would land the tube upside down, but not at a flesh torturing speed. Tried it later on a more powerful boat and it was...

That seems to be all of Toronto, and the surrounding area. I love going under 60 in a 100 when there’s nothing in front of you. Remember when those guys were charged for going the speed limit?

Sorry to hear that. R.I.P.
