    While people sit on their asses and whine about Trump a whole fucking year after he left office, the very swamp he was trying to drain is busy trying to take away your freedoms. It's a good thing I don't have kids in school today. I'd kill somebody.

    @mik said in Greed: remote start With underground, indoor parking, I have no need for that any more. 15 years ago, I might have paid $96 a year for it.

    @brenda He curls with his school team and in a junior programme out of one the many private curling rinks in the city. Unlike organized hockey here, enrolment and participation into curling is inexpensive and the training always takes place at civilized times of the day. Curling rinks and clubs are located in urban and rural areas throughout the country. You never have to go far to find one.

    @george-k Are these people as violent as the BLM rioters? ….I'm not defending these people, simply because I'm ignorant of what they're trying to accomplish, but I think your equivalence of the two movements is a bit off-kilter. Point taken. They are not violent, or at least up this point, not physically violent. Wanton hooliganism has not characterized the protest. Nevertheless, this mob is not exactly a few doofuses wanting to take selfies in front of the Canadian Parliament Peace Tower. On the other hand, the Ottawa Police and RCMP have deliberately not provoked them and have chosen instead to defuse potential incidents calmly and with minimal force. It is time for these yobs to go home. They have made their voices heard. They have very certainly cowed a few Conservative Party provincial premiers into promising action to lift mandates and restrictions in the coming days and weeks. The Conservative toad running this province, already on waivers with his Party, is certainly intimidated by the protest and his macho-libertarian caucus. Why the movement is targeting Trudeau and federal government is beyond me. The protesters have certainly done irreparable damage to the very Party that best represents their interests at the federal level in Parliament. That leads me to the conclusion that they are not at all interested in parlay or parliamentary democracy. Then to hell with them all, they really do deserve nothing from the rest of Canada.

    @jon-nyc said in In search of the Endurance: It’s awesome. Started it this morning. So well written, and I'm only up to the part of the departure of "Endurance." The FIRST sentence of the book... (paraphrasing) "The order to abandon ship was given at 5:15." If that doesn't suck you in... Gonna really enjoy this one.

    George, we prefer the reduced sodium version. It still has plenty of salt in it. I did not like it for many years, but hubby has changed my mind. I now enjoy it with eggs and toast for breakfast. Hubby likes it for lunch with some toasted bread. Be sure to brown it in a skillet. That makes a nice crisp crust for both texture and flavor. Do that with diced Spam, and then add it to your scrambled eggs or omelet.
