    Stupid speeding ticket, 48 km/h over

    I will be in Sarnia this week, probably Wed or Thursday. Could I pick up the disclosure for you and than fax it to you from my office? PM me and let me know either way.

    Been thinking..

    Well I just sold my 100+ hp Triumph Tiger 955i and am going with something smaller and less power. While it isn't an SS, it is way too much bike for me, and way too big to boot. Right now thinking Versys, but not sure. Having all that power isn't all it's cracked up to be.

    Importing a Motor Vehicle To Canada (the be all end all)

    For God's sake it is border, not boarder - unless of course you are faxing all the information to someone who rents a room from you.

    Out of jurisdiction police

    This sounds more like the case where the officer wrote a ticket with a wrong court on it. If he was in Toronto but gave a ticket that required the person to appear before the court in Peel, there could be an issue. As for the police officers themselves, all Provincial Constables are police...

    What's with mutts costing big bucks?

    Like another poster, I also did the foster program for a while. It was through the Toronto Humane Society. Rather than take dogs that could be adopted out, I took in dogs who needed a warm bed and TLC until it was time to die. Yup I was palliative care. Incredibly heartwarming to say the...

    Recent movies you saw - recommend or no

    I saw 2 movies last week, both very good. First one Bully - showed me how much high school has changed since I went. It is a very emotional movie but well worth the watch. The second was The Most Exotic Merigold Hotel. A bit whimsical, had some hilarious scenes and also some realisations of...

    What a double standard.

    I had a noisy neighbour a few years ago when I lived in downtown TO. She would play loud music and party until 2 or 3 on a semi-regular basis. Talking to her didn't help so I returned the favour. Knowing she was up until 3 or 4 partying, when I got up at 7, I turned my stereo speakers towards...

    I'm giving away money

    Can't help you there as my last church was in California. I don't know Newmarket that well, is there a neighbourhood that is lower income? Best bet would be to call a school in an area like that and get their guidance. The agency we used was one who assisted low income people on the road out...

    I'm giving away money

    Hi Sonny, As I see the back to school ads, a thought entered my mind. At my last church we were in a very low income neighbourhood, complete with a school filled with children that couldn't afford supplies. As a congregation we filled back packs with school supplies, pens etc. and distributed...

    Funeral Convoy: What to do?

    As one who has been part of many funeral processions, including 2 this past month, I want to chime in. Funeral processions do serve a purpose, they serve as a reminder to the family how much the deceased mattered. Being at the memorial service is one thing, being there when the person is...

    Cdn Credit card to pay for US fuel that requires ZIP code.

    90210 is suburban Beverly Hills. The school where the show was to have taken place, wasn't actually in 90210 - guess it didn't sound as good for a TV show title.

    i got a nail in my tire.

    I have one of those. I get everything hooked up, then start the bike and let it idle while I fill the tire.

    Funeral Convoy: What to do?

    In some jurisdictions, particularly in the U.S. police won't do escorts for funerals. If something happens during the funeral procession, the responsibility then falls to the police - as in they get sued. A number of departments have determined it isn't worth the risk, so no escort.

    How to buy a helmet - one persons opinion

    Some modulars, like the Shark Evoline 2, are certified to meet DOT and ECE regulations. If they are good enough for the OC Sheriff and CHP, they are good enough for me.

    Hells Angels pick Saskatoon for national rally

    Actually Saskatoon has some hills around the river valley. For the truly flat experience, they should have gone to Regina. Of course they would have died of boredom the first night, but I digress.

    Accepting payments for bike sale?

    Thanks for the replies. OpenGambit, after being hit with emails from purchasers "overseas, families of military folks etc." my scam detector moved into high gear. The guy I am dealing with wants the bike, but doesn't have all the cash right now. As there are not a lot of them around (only 1...

    The low Km game-Top this ad--- A 2009 Ninja 250 with only 298kms

    My neighbour has a Yamana Cruiser, 2007 with 1759 km's on it. To say she never rides it is a bit of an understatement. A friend of mine has a 1967 Chevy Camaro with under 500 miles on it. He trailers it to shows now as it is worth a bunch of $$. GM wanted to buy it from him, but he declined...

    Accepting payments for bike sale?

    I have listed my bike for sale as it is time to move onto something else. Someone has expressed interest in the bike and wants to know if I would accept payments for the bike. Normally I think nah, but he is asking if he can put down a 20% deposit, and then pay 20-30% of the price each month...
