    Just installed my 65,000.00 TV

    Not mine, but I owned it while I was installing it! Reference quality 98" NEC built to order and carefully shipped from Japan. I wish that I could show you the room that I built around it. I went online, because I felt that number somewhat embellished: I see a lot of IT bravado in my line of...

    Modern VW owners and the sense of entitlement?

    I haven't noticed. But I did have a guy on my last site that thought his new GTI was the Bomb and he let everyone know it. I usually drive my Tundra to work, but one day I parked beside him with my wife's new 335i, then the next day as he was parking I pulled up beside him with my 911. I can't...

    TO's Olympic bid - please say NO

    I'm torn. Being in construction, I'm sure that my wage will go up because it will be harder to find guys like me with experience to manage construction projects. Also, I could AirBnB my downtown house both upstairs and downstairs and make a fortune. I have a friend in Vancouver that rented his...

    Who parks like this?

    Ya. And they're probably in that store checking out antiques and collectables. I don't know which is worse.

    Ram 1500 Eco Diesel Review

    One time I accidentally toggled onto the real time gas mileage indicator in my Tundra. It was crazy. 20L/100km minimum and it would jump to 30 when I stepped on the gas. I'm lucky that my employer pays for the fuel. I'm not sure that I would own it otherwise. That being said, the truck is a...

    France train shooting: Americans overpower gunman

    I must have taken that route a dozen times, back and forth between Amsterdam and Paris. I'll be a little more apprehensive next time.

    No Toronto locations. Dang. Maybe we can get a franchise of the cowgirls coffee.

    Guardian Bell Thef.

    Huh. Now I know what that little bell that came with my bike is about. It's mounted to the front, near the bar clamps.

    Tyson Laing of Peterborough - you made the headlines!

    One thing the guy should keep in mind is that if convicted, he won't be allowed into the USA for some time. Some people may not care, but a necessary trip for work or a buddies vacation wedding will be problematic. Something to consider.

    CBC news

    A lot of the trades that I work with (especially Union ones) work a nine hour day, four days a week. Every Friday off. Pretty good.

    CBC news

    I wish I could work a 40 hour week right now. I've worked every weekend and holiday to get my current project complete. I wouldn't say that we're conditioned by any entity to work eight hours a day. It's natural (for me, anyway) to work in prime daylight hours between getting up and going to...

    Three topless ladies riding bicycles @ Kitchener... and then...

    It's going to be a hell of a long time before a woman with her breasts exposed on the street will be no big deal with men who are attracted to them.

    This grinds my gears

    Trolling for attention. Simple as that. I'll tell you one thing, though. There's a lot of obnoxious people in Texas. It's hard to believe that a place as cool as Austin, with it's SXSW music festival, is in the same state as Houston. Anyway, the guy is forgettable.

    AWD Hydrostatic Diesel Motorcycle

    Hydraulic drive might be a better description. The wheels are driven by fluid pumped through a drive hub, rather than a direct power unit/gear connection. It's expensive to build and maintain. Another drawback is that it's better suited to low speed, pure torque situations. But for...

    Your favorite things while riding

    Leaving for work at 5am, not many people on the roads. I set my pace at whatever I feel like each morning. Pure freedom.
