    Winter storage with no garage

    I actually just ordered one of these things: http://www.motoshell.com/Features.html Looks interesting...thought I'd give it a shot. I'm a renter so a huge, semi-permanent shed is out of the question. I'll let you know how this turns out. Does anyone have experience with this, or it's more...

    Working out! Fitness! Nutrition!

    I use to train muay thai concurrently with a fairly intense weight training routine. Recovery becomes a huge issue after you're past the beginner phase...especially if you have a job. I miss the martial arts but I've since given it up to focus on pure weight training with a bodybuilder style...

    Working out! Fitness! Nutrition!

    That's impressive man. Congrats! I haven't done super heavy squats in a while. I've been experimenting with lighter weight and higher rep/volume squats lately. It's horrible...I don't recommend it. My legs seem to like them, though. :(

    safety stickers on a car

    What was this sticker for? Was this a business vehicle that had a speed limiter in it, or is this the new "baby on board" sign that people put up on their cars so that they can drive like tools? Regardless, as mentioned, you can't really hate on a driver doing the limit so long as they're in...

    Well "exciting" means different things to different people. And in this day and age, you can find a lot of really good deals on the used market. You can probably find a used 2002 wrx for under $7000, and that will get you a car with a huge array of capabilities (provided the damn thing hasn't...

    All of your regrets will disappear the moment you take that thing out into a blizzard. I LOVE driving in blizzards :D

    I love my subaru. It's not easy on gas, and the maintenance is a little more expensive than typical japanese....but you may be able to remedy that by not getting a WRX. :p Good bang for your buck if you buy used.

    New Stats about Canadian Households/Families came out - Pretty Interesting Stuff

    This. It's really strange, too. I'm on my own now, but I only moved out recently, and I'm 30. I get the impression that my mom still thinks I'll be coming back home at some point, and all of this "moving out business" is some kind of temporary experiment. It's not like my parents are out of...

    New Stats about Canadian Households/Families came out - Pretty Interesting Stuff

    I agree with this. Debt racks up at an alarming rate if you're not paying attention. And paying that off is a massive burden.

    New Stats about Canadian Households/Families came out - Pretty Interesting Stuff

    The more I look at the "traditional" model of north american life, the more convinced I am at how unsustainable it is. Going to school, spending thousands on university, spending thousands to get married, spending thousands to buy a house and a car, spending thousands to raise kids and put them...

    +1 I didn't even know this was a thing. I like it!

    Recent movies you saw - recommend or no

    It kind of is but it's very well done. It's the polar opposite of the dark knight rises in that it's quite a bit more surrealistic....and colourful. Watching all of those characters together on screen at the same time made me very giddy, though. The only thing I didn't like was Captain...

    GPZ 900 or some such thing. Ownership of one requires you to play oiled up, topless volleyball with your homies on a weekly basis.

    No Asian women on money please...

    That's a good point too, actually. I wouldn't put it past some dipshit hack author to sensationalize this to help his/her career. Also there was this nugget: Awesome!

    No Asian women on money please...

    It's not even really the journalist...even though I hardly think this qualifies as news. What the hell is up with these focus groups, though? LOL. People getting uppity about a pseudo-asian looking woman looking through a microscope on a $100 dollar bill. Fantastic.....[/LEFT]

    No Asian women on money please...

    Agreed...they should make the woman latina then. It would benefit humanity. It's also convenient as those new bills are stain proof! ;)
