Gorilla prank on the ISS

There really should be extra charges for any adults involved if they use minors to commit a crime. Twenty year old mixed in with young offenders, extra 10 years for you for involving minors... Handler using teens, extra 10 years for you....

learns quickly from mistakes and never repeats them...

Odds are someone(s) went through the legit process and then someone(s) figured out holes. I know someone (friend of a friend thing) that did a no show electrical apprenticeship, similar to all this in concept. He paid cash to a buddy that is an electrical contractor. From the cash buddy paid...

Alternatively, she knew she was driving dirty and hadn't handed him her documents yet. So she rolled the dice and came up with a lame excuse when it didn't work.

My random thoughts pre-coffee... For us bottom feeders looking for cheap wall hangers but don't want what everyone else has. HomeSense/Winners will have some interesting stuff from time to time. More prints/manufactured items but at least they tend to be low volume in the stores per item so not...

Seems like a George Costanza dating move... Next time you talk to him tell him you signed with someone else as the entire briefcase fiasco makes you believe he is too scatterbrained to get the job/quote right. Bad reflection on the entire company...

There is a debt relief commercial I see on US TV. The dude looks like a stereotypical "hipster" HD owner and his message is after the debt relief he has more time to ride his motorcycle and then they show him on a big cruiser (can't see the brand but my guess...). Every time I see the commercial...

For pension, defined contribution is where many are these days. The big advantage here is typically the employer match. They will match up to a certain percentage of your income. Some are 1:1 some are 1:0.5, others the first ratio until a certain amount and the second to another number and no...

Not beyond grade nine econ... This conecpt is also US thinking with mortgage interest tax deductions. Real world, 100K room in TFSA???, maybe if someone never contributed to it otherwise investement is outside and not tax sheltered and taxes eat up profits. A real 10% YOY for an investment...

Once again, JT single handily caused global inflation! The western world must to so ****** at us.

Instead of expecting them to come and inspect your/our gas work and put their ticket on the line... How about installing the water heater and the water plumbing and having them come out and do the gas. Or come out and do the gas and then you do the grunt work (water plumbing etc.). If there is...

There will always be a need for unskilled TFW but it should not be retail. While there are problems with this as well, agricultural work is one case I know of. Sure people will complain that "lazy" Canadians should be filling these gaps BUT we are just too soft to do so. I know I would last...

Personally I would just split the difference and jack-up the entire house a 1/16" to fool the eye.

Try aluminum foil and water. Try/test a small sot first. The water is a lubricant in process and the foil is (usually) much softer than the fork material be it chrome plating or stainless but harder than the rust. Some people sub wd-40 or whatever for the water but water works fine as you will...

It is a super easy job, just take your time. The housings and cables are different between brakes and shifters. Just get the cables you need and measure out how much housing--add a little for good measure--and head to your LBS and the will sell housing by the foot. Most will toss in some...

Pretty much this. As noted they were likely making more (take home) than we were even at the peak of the dot.com. There is a reason Swiss Chalet (as an example) tends to have either very young or older wait staff. Young at the beginning of a career (and with experience may move on to higher...

Back in the late 90s when I was working downtown we went out as a group from work for drinks and steaks basically once per week, vendors picked up many of the tabs pre 2000 bubble but not always. One day somehow the discussion of how much the servers were making came up (sort of "arrogant" why...

Done I also had to give my cat a big hug.... so now he is really annoyed with me.

I agree but the counter argument is the potential for a slippery slope. 'they' being contractor What if they started the job but just didn't finish. What if they started and in the opinion of the homeowner did a scope bait and switch. What if they started the job and due to whatever legit...
