    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    NS obviously didn't do the research, thinking it was like using cube taps or power bars in the kitchen. A lot of people aren't any smarter. I don't know what the learning curve will be like. Sixty percent of the population overloads their credit cards. There's an interesting psychiatric...

    Anyone into gardening here?

    If a 5000 square foot lot is a million dollars that's $200 per SF. If six feet by fifty feet is hidden that's $60,000 of property that isn't obvious when the time to sell comes along. For Toronto, it's a good location and the neighbours are good so this isn't a sales spruce up. We like the...

    Anyone into gardening here?

    Our overgrown hedge may be on its last days. While it looks good at a glance it is 10 to 12 feet thick and my neighbour and I are both losing about six feet of back yard. It sounds like he's willing to take the financial hit for the fence and I can do what I want on my side. The hedge is...

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    That works if you're not running a fleet where all the vehicles need a whole night's sleep. A delivery company in Nova Scotia ordered all new EV trucks and the utility wouldn't give them enough power to charge everything overnight. Heavy trucks have a different set of circumstances. I also...

    Where was this. I agree with letting the car disappear. Outracing it would mean watching out for him catching up.

    Yup, private equity. They're also going after health care clinics, funeral homes, RV parks. Pool money, give an indie a sum they can't ignore, take over the region, screw the clientele and often the banks and suppliers then disappear.

    Start of OPEC Mafia collapse?

    I wonder about cartels, particularly diamonds. How long does your money last when your net worth is propped up by an inventory that you yourself have overinflated?

    UVIP purchase price

    It is fraud. CRA sees $10K go into the seller's bank account and they only sold $1K worth of stuff. Are they dealing drugs, laundering money? CRA is apparently using AI to get every penny that the Liberals need to recoup what Justin squandered.

    99% correct. 1% ride for utility A 650 used to be a big bike. Now it's a starter. Goldwing 1800 owners want 2000. Boss Hoss with a SBC and now a big block?

    Priced vet bills lately? If you didn't own a dog you could afford another bike.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    The original installer could safely use a paired set of chargers but a good inspector thinks about the next occupant of the house. The second or third occupant may not be aware of the issues of doubling up.

    E bikes rampaging Toronto streets

    A USA item: A kid on an e-bike hit and killed a pedestrian. The kid's mother has been charged because she gave him the bike. Maybe e-bikes need crash pictures on them like the ones they use on anti smoking ads. Nah! I as born smart.

    Anyone turkey hunting this weekend

    It reminds me of trout from a trout pond. Someone told me to soak the fish in salt water for a day. Hmmm tasted like salty mud.

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

    I wonder if our police services are on a covert work-to-rule system. Why bust your arse rushing to a crime scene, risking collisions, nabbing the criminal while sustaining minor injuries only to see the punks back on the street the next morning? Isn't the court system the problem? We keep...
