    What a double standard.

    making noise on a Thursday is a no no. You'd expect it more on a Friday or Saturday as fewer people go to work the next day.

    Home Inspectors

    forgot to add my recent home inspector did thermal imaging which I think is worth the extra money. Just don't like the subliminal advertising for his service to repair certain things but I guess most home inspectors do that. My first home inspector was like Red Liner's. In and out in 30...

    Home Inspectors

    I paid about $450 for my last home inspector. He was an instructor at a college that teaches home inspections. He made sure all the electricals worked and if he didn't he knew how to make it work. He even lectured me on how many things work and what to do in an emergency situation such as gas...

    Cop crashes bike into 4 year old girl then shoots and kills her father

    I've low sided a bike before too. It stopped right at the feet of the instructor while doing an emergency stopping exercise otherwise I would have run him over. Think the key is to apply full brakes than lay her down. Think people watch too much movies and see bikes sliding forever.

    Finally! Someone stands up to the tenant

    I usually sift through the kiiji ads for those looking for a room and if they put down that they have a full time job and seemed genuine I'll shoot them an e-mail. So far it seems I get better tenant from those that make an effort to write about themselves on kiiji than those that respond to my...

    Soccer team banned from tournament because not enough Indians on team.

    why would there be a problem if someone wanted to play within their own group. If the rules are defined which they are beforehand than why all the commotion. The organizers are indo and and the rules are mainly indo players. Do we expect an indo cultural community to run a non-indo soccer league?

    Soccer team banned from tournament because not enough Indians on team.

    it's an indo league. Don't see what the problem is if it's run by a specific league for certain races. I once founded and organized a soccer league for a specific ethnic group across Ontario so we could get to know each other. Some teams would bring their non-ethnic friends and fights would...

    Finally! Someone stands up to the tenant

    I tried evicting one tenant a while ago for smoking in his room. Took months and he wouldn't leave but eventually he stopped smoking in his room. That's why I try to rent only to referrals. If a tenant doesn't want to pay not much you can do to re-coup all the previous months rent and I think it...

    Beginner Riding Fears. What was yours?

    before I headed up North I was afraid of getting chased by bears. Ended up having 2 bears cross in front of me without even looking at me. The deers were scarier stuff. They'd pop out of nowhere and leap across you. Almost nailed one luckily I swerved somehow.

    Beginner Riding Fears. What was yours?

    I had no fear because I just kept dropping the bike also getting t-boned by a minivan really helped alleviate any fears I may have had.

    Official 2012 Summer Olympic Games Thread

    I just managed to catch the last minute of the game but one of Canada's player looked way and I mean way off side. Don't know why they won't allow video of it so I can review it better. Might be off a deflection or something but the game winning goal almost hit her like she was a goal keeper.

    How do you deal with generally unpleasant people?

    same here all the years I've been riding I never get a driver not allowing me to pass. I usually get the ones that want to race me either in their car or motorcycles. I just get a chuckle out of it everytime.

    Nominate Future Collectible Motorcycles

    oil will have run out well before 100 years from now so these motorcycles will just be seen as collectibles and can't be ridden. I'll say the 1985 ninja 900 because it's the first ninja in North America and Tom Cruise rode it in Top Gun

    Debt Management

    Some good advice and you don't have to be making a lot of money to buy a house in the future. It's all in how you spend your money. I own 2 houses, drive a 1993 Nissan Sentra in the winter, put fire and theft on summer and ride my scooter. Insurance is less than $200 for both. Gas is neglible...
