    That used to crack me up...."I`ll stay here in the helicopter while Jim wrestles the Komodo Dragon". :p

    Saw amazing today...

    Standing up close to the window overlooking my deck. A Dove has been sitting on a bench right outside the window, out of the icy breeze and in the warm sun for about an hour or so. In a split second the window is filled with red-tailed Hawk, swooping in hard on the brakes and talons/feet out...

    Car Tire place East End?

    Does it have to be a Toyota dealer? Any brand dealer will do a tire swap in my experience.

    How`s your house pricing doing?..

    I`ll be 70 in 2027, mortgage free for over a decade and no other debt. Savings and investments are good, work and gov`t pensions are OK. Reverse mortgage is a minor consideration, downsizing to a purchased condo possible, maintenance fees are absurd in most of them, and an independent living...

    How`s your house pricing doing?..

    Here in central Ontario I`m down about 65 grand from last summer. Used the RBC calculator(FWIW), from 725 to 661, adding in the upgrades takes it to 699. Consider too that nothing is moving here, same listings forever on Realtor.ca Any of us here approaching the age of 70 that sure puts a...

    Search and Rescue

    Count me in too! Many moons ago, the fall of `83 two friends and I were out blasting around the bush in Ganaraska. It began as a beautiful late Fall day and by afternoon it was overcast, showers and getting cold. We were all aboard IT250`s and by late afternoon were getting low on fuel in spite...

    Search and Rescue

    Same kind of nimrods that like to pet the friendly rattlesnake. Years back I read of a couple hikers in some U.S. State Park, Arizona I think, that didn`t register their hike. This was before phones and all the tech. Anyway ... they got billed for 35 Grand for the search and chopper rescue when...

    Ducati Formula 73

    I`ve still got the issue of Cycle. Aaaah,..what the Hell, at least it`s an Italian fly. :) I`m glad I got to follow writers like Neilson, Schilling, Thomas, Jennings, Egan, Cameron, even Bob Greene and so many more way back then. Anyone else remember how good those guys were? That fuel level...

    Ducati Formula 73

    You can have the pinacle of fuuugly for a mere $23.490. How did they go from the original 750 Supersport or the 916 to this? 💩 www.motorcycledaily.com

    BC shooting

    Like Detective Joe Kenda said.. the other 20% are over money, sex or revenge. What have gun bans got to do with saving lives? Nothing. I`d contact my MP but they never replied after my question last December regarding Carney`s C-8 and C-9 bills. Our government in action. 🖕 🖕 🖕 🖕 🖕 🖕 🖕 🖕...

    BC shooting

    Wonder what the cops and family and friends knew about this loser A**hole. And for how long? At least he greased himself, shoulda` done that first.

    Cuba...

    And sadly billions of our tax dollars going there to be absorbed by their Commie government or laundered by our government doing nothing for millions of Cubans in need. Good thing all problems have been dealt with in Canada. 🖕

    Looking for Wingmen

    Consider the FJR1300? Not certain of your budget,... how about a used late model BMW RT or one of several big H-D baggers. Can`t miss with any of `em. Too bad about your current predicament, seems every man learns the same way,... the hard way. Hang in there.

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    Col. Kurtz in Apocalypse Now...."What do you call it when the assassins accuse the assassin"? THEY LIE. Absolutely SFA comes from a cop on cop investigation.

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    Yesterday I heard either the head of the police union or ex-chief Saunders, not sure which, mention that some cops are pulling in 200 to 300 grand with O/T if the want to do the work. Holy shite, is that even possible? It`s been info overload.

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    Because it says POLICE in giant letters? Does it say OBEY on the back? :D I doubt anything will ever come of this.
