Has anyone asked the dog? We have a tendency to transfer human emotions to animals. When dogs meet on the street do they ask each other about their offspring or just sniff each other crotches.

A fencing dilema. My neighbour behind me and I agree on keeping the hedge between us as we both enjoy the privacy. However the hedge is in rough shape and is on my property. A chain link fence is embedded in the hedge. I was looking at replacing the hedge but the five figure cost has me...

Think like a condo owner. Create a reserve fund. Put $150 a month into the fund and don't touch it. In 10 years you have $15K plus interest to pay for a new roof or furnace / AC. Roofing is a scam. Read my lips. I needed a new roof: The local well advertised darling company wanted ~$23K, did...

I only spend ~$200 a month on gas. If my tab was $800+, EV wouldn't take long to pay off the premium price at $9600 a year.

I've been told they're chewy, especially the leg meat. Is the taste any different from factory produced? My brother got the odd deer and said flavour depended on where the deer were feeding. If it was corn fields it wasn't as gamy. Turkeys?

At DND in Ottawa the micro shredders don't have collection bins. Everything is immediately transferred via vacuum lines to a dumpster at shipping and receiving. All that micro confetti is getting mixed together as it churns through the piping system. 25,000 confetti bits per page mixed with...

Adverse possession rules changed a while back. I assume squatter's rights are largely a thing of the past. The 1952 fence location trumped the situation, being unchallenged for so many years.

I don't know enough about economics to rate the possibility of there being a political system that is fair to everyone. Communism sounds great. Everyone pays the same for a loaf of bread and makes the same amount of money. The down side is that not everyone is equal and eventually a more...

Shred any piece of paper that has your name or any personal info on it. Yeah I'm paranoid. We seem to be preoccupied with Nigerian scams but what if the punk down the street wants a bit of your money? He, or it could be a she, builds a file on you, picking up info whenever they can. You toss...

The first time I applied for a Costco CC they asked so many questions I walked away. Occupation? Retired From what occupation? Electrical Commercial, Industrial or Residential? Commercial What position? Own or rent? Loans? Mother's maiden name Etc, etc, etc They would know more about me...

Check an air fare, take a day to think about it and when you look again the price is up.

When my brother was working on his driver's license and the test facility was at 401 and Keele he and his instructor stopped by on a Saturday and walked the course. A security guard came out and told them it was off limits. "Didn't you see the gate?" My Bro: Yeah but there's no fence. They left.

I have a PT fence to stain and I own a HVLP spray gun. There's nothing nearby to be affected by over spray. Worth a try.

What's the point of a gate when there's no fence on either side of it? It's a car filter.

Condolences to family and friends. RIP rider.

Yup but I was wondering how far they expected people to walk to the box. Some would drive if it was 50 feet. I don't know if boxes in commercial plazas would work. More walk in traffic or nuisance?

What's p***ing me of are the service costs with ICE. How much of a dealership's profits come from new car sales, used car sales and service? Service is a con game of "Protecting your investment" and minor service items at major prices. They wanted to charge mega bucks to change my cabin air...

My shady B-I-L used proton as he felt it was the most secure. Considering his stature in life and his sleazy cons it's probably good for him. Obviously legit people need security as well.
