On another note... FOXY Cleopatra was black. The other one was half Greek... Whatever that means...

All of a sudden, I have a sudden Canadian pride thing going on. Do I want Edmonton or Toronto? Maybe is best to have an all Canadian Stanly Cup final? Or maybe I stick to what I know best. To hate on all Canadian teams and wish the ONLY Canadian team win another Stanley Cup SHOULD be the HABS but continue to hate them too. and continue to be a pathetic Bruins fan and mope at yet another wasted season thanking the hockey gods that it wasnt the Habs to take out the Bruins yet another year and just be happy that the Habs didnt even MAKE the play-offs this year again. Maybe option #2 hatin' on all other Canadian teams and wishing their eliminations is a GREAT way to get excited for the next rounds and being happy the Habs are not IN the play-offs is a more satisfying way to continue on!!! Ill go with the hate thing as being sulky about yet another Bruins play-off exit is par for the course for being a Bruins fan!!!

It sucks to be a Boston Bruins fan right about now... I mean...it REALLY sucks. How do you go from a historical season to losing a 3-1 lead in a 7 game series in a game 7 OT? Dont answer that as the Bruins have done EXACTLY that at LEAST 2 times in the last 12 years. EEEEEEEHHHHHHHVREEEEEEEE-body talks about the Maple LEAFS phoquing up 7 game series leads and choking in the play-offs...but where IM PHOQUING standing, the Bruins' play-off record aint far off a Toronto Maple Leaf choke... Pitiful and sad to go out like that when Patrice Bergeron might have played his last game. Anyway... Thank-you Bruins for a very entertaining and awesome season, a very entertaining play-off series. Especially the last three games even though you guys didnt lost 2 straight games in the phoquing season to lose three staight in the phoquing play-offs...

When I have time, I like painting my house. Its a lot of work, but I actually enjoy it. Its time though that sometimes I do not have. And even that needs explaination. I can find the time to paint a room or two over a two day break. Its the time to recuperate because it is hard work so when I finish painting a room or two, Ill need to go back to work at the restaurant with no rest and THAT is the killer for me. I hired a painter the last time. 4 years ago. He and his troops (2 others) did my kitchen, and my basement over the course of a week. I simply didnt have the time then. Currently Im envisioning to do the three bedrooms. My daughter's my son's and my wife's. The two kids have grown up and want a change and my wife...well she got jealous of her kids. So...happy wife happy life. But Ill do those. Bedrooms are easier than kitchens. Benjamin Moore and Behr is our choice of paints. I prefer Benjamin Moore although Behr aint too bad for the price either. Sherwin Williams? Maybe I try them this time around. Im not loyal to paint companies. My dad used CIL and SICO back in the day. Both are Canadian.

Somehow...I think Id prefer the barbaric events at the Colosseum than anything Springer, Ricki Lake and Geraldo ever did. Lets not forget early Oprah too. Sheer disgust I have for that kind of television. Seems crazy right? That Id prefer seeing Christians eaten alive by lions, Gladiators brawling to death... Springer and his ilk...a precursor to the shytty, seedy world of the world wide web we have today. I did have several chuckles though, at the cameo appearance he did parodying himself and his show on Austin Powers. In summary. I prefer murder and genocide over greed. Weird how I phrase it but in my mind...it all makes sense!

Warped brakes and dash? The phoque???!!! On the warped dashes though, Ive heard that the Grand Am and Alero along with the F-Bodies had issues like that in extreme heat places like Arizona. Shytty!!! Gasket failures... On GM engines....,yeah... Not a surprise. The 3.4 was one of those engines that would have gasket failures. I thankfully didnt have that. Maybe the other owner that bought my car at trade in...

Tell me more. coupe or sedan? Ecotec 4 or V6? Manual? colour? What was wrong with yours? I had the 3.4. Traded it in for a 2005 Impala SS when the first kid arrived. It had 116 000 miles. I didnt have any problems with it. Well... I changed the front left and right bearings once each. Blame it on GM or blame Montreal's shytty pot holed roads or a bit of both. The car served me well over all. And I wasnt gentle with it.

Survivor or HNIC? I missed 1 potentially exciting game and 1 interesting period in another game over my wife's and daughter's insistance that I watch freakin' Survivor with them. Never say never...but Im NEVER missing NHL playoff hockey again. (unless the 2 most important women in my life dont give me a freakin' choice)

RIP Harry Belafonte

Nice house! But Im thinking... "that is a lot of snow to clear in the winter time..."

What is more interesting is that most of these companies are internet and/or computer tech related to which it would seem that old ways of doing business in an office would be obsolete for them... Amazon, Apple, Google, Meta, Salesforce, Snap, Twitter, Uber Phoque Amazon. Phoque Salesforce Phoque Snap and EPSECIALLY Phoque Meta Twitter and Uber!!! I dont particularly care for Google either, I think they are corrupt with user's personal info and stuff, but at least Google is a search engine that actually searches and gives info. We should be afraid of Google because of the sheer amount of information it carries so phoque them too!!! Apple...I got no mean words for them...other than Ill blame them for the state of addiction all of the world is for smart phone usage...

my bad about Raine. I know you have had 2 of your precious little doggys pass on, I just didnt realize the names. Glad to hear about Raine still being with you alive and well. Just kidding about the car. Although I can feel the frustration you had with the Merc through your post I feel kinda good about the joke I did on it BECAUSE you seem to be frustrated by it. Id feel bad though, somewhat, if you had told me it had great memories for you so Im glad I didnt put my foot in my mouth.

I loved the pic NOT because of your cute doggy, RIP. But because of these 3 lovely words: PS: Love the doggy pic too though...

Ill agree with your post. And having 4000-5000 lbs sedans and 7000-9000 lbs SUVs is more detrimental than we actually realize. From accidents involving compact ICE CUVs (approx 3500 lbs or less) and EV CUVs (aprox 5000lbs or more) ... To huge heavy EVs that collide with one another. The destruction is not nearly enough talked about. Our roads going forward. All that weight in an all EV world will certainly have an impact on road maintenance. Also...think about all the bridges that exist in the world and how fast their life spans will be cut short due to the fact that EVs are AT LEAST 50% heavier than the ICE counterparts that they will replace and that bridges were designed to accomodate the less heavier ICE cars. Parking lots are to be included in this discussion. If proper maintenenance and more frequent maintenance is not done (and calculate how much THAT will cost the tax payer or the owner of the parking lots), now imagine parking lots and bridges collapsing and the devastation that comes with that... Charging times is one thing. But battery tech needs to improve in density to allow for less heavy batteries that equate to similar ranges as their ICE-V counterparts. Putting more battery and increasing weight is NOT an answer. Telling people to be content with less battery with less range is not an answer either to keep weight down. Battery density will improve eventually. But THAT is what we need to focus on. Battery density to allow for better weight vehicles.
