THAT would be sooooo wrong, dude. You would be correct that its not a bald eagly cry. But that screech is not by a falcon either. Its from a red tail hawk. Learn your birds, loser!!!

I do NOT know... I do NOT understand on how we are STILL having these discussions. Its tiring is what it is. But again, if we dont fight for our rights, for whatever those rights are, those rights COULD be taken away from us. Good luck in Polievre taking away Gay marriage in Canada. It aint happening. Polievre is quietly against abortion too. But good luck in taking that away in Canada as well. But...in the USofA though. Abortion WAS taken away from women... The most so called free-est country in the world where freedoms are flying high with the eagles... But that would really be a falcon cry I believe. So fake freedoms. And therefore abortions were taken away soooo easily. This is why I said to you, you gotta worry about your freedoms. You are too lax and they get taken away without you even noticing it.

Sadly no. Our extreme right wing agendas are slightly different than yours. Ours are coming from young folk more than the old. And coming from a different place. I dont mean location. I mean a different emotional reason and Id say this is coming from Gen X and younger. I had a discussion in the summer with a 21 year old. Half Italian/half Greek kid. Good kid. But he told me his mom and dad and himself will not be voting for Trudeau, butn for Polievre because they are all fed up with the LGBTQ rights and all because its in "our faces all the time". They dont agree with gay marriage...blah blah blah... Theyn blame all the his/her/them/they on the left and on Trudeau...yada yada yada. He even went as far as denouncing abortion... Sound familiar? And this is in Quebec dont forget. Probably the most liberal places in ALL of North America... I had to bite my lip but I felt like telling him...so...dont marry another man if Catholic church doesnt allow you to marry another man and certainly dont get an abortion then if Catholic church does NOT allow you to get one... He is straight by the way. Same ole talking points that we've had this past decade it seems. Its like as if we entered 1424 or 1524 all of a sudden and not 2024 heading into 2025... Like I wrote to @Drew Dowdell's post. Trump released extreme right ideologies and hatred. He made THAT in vogue. And it will NOT go away anytime soon I dont think... No more political talk from me. I promised it a couple ofm days ago and I just now broke that promise. No more. Because this should be a site for fun. And we will definetely need fun because in the real world, it wont be so much fun. Trump likes to rule with miserably words...

I said this on the Nov. 27, 2024. Today, its the Dec. 4, 2024. It didnt take long to start dividing... And he aint even President yet. All the Trudeau haters out there blame Trudeau and side with Trump. I bet that all the Trumpsters out there believe all that Trump says about Canada and about Trudeau. But we will replace Trudeau but our next Prime Minister will not have better results. Trump divides. Hell, Trump divides his own phoquing family... What a looooong 4 years this is going to be. I want to believe this. I soooooo want to believe this. But some other charismatic a$$h@73 will eventually take his place. A younger one. Someone who could really have the time to take away rights and freedoms for his own gain... The cat is out of the bag. And that cat aint gonna go back into that bag. Trump released extreme right wing hatred and behaviour upon us. One could hope. One could hope.

Yup. With the next elections. And the worstn thing is, everybody that I talk to all seem to hate Trudeau. Yet...in reality, Trudeau has done nothing so bad that deserves so much hate other than the extreme right ideology is kicking in.

I didnt really have a choice to use a modern Camaro. I didnt want to either but I wanted to do a 2024 version of Simon and Simon. I know I know... I could have cheated... The 2017 ZL1 would be the nicest of ALL mdern Camaros from the 5th and 6th gens. But I wanted to give the Camaro one last goodbye so I used it to coincide with a modern take of how a current Simon and Simon show would feature.

Unfortunately, that is how democracy fails. When you dont want to worry about…well…about your rights. It takes EVERYBODY in the village to protect democracy. I understand where you stand. But that kind of attitude and you will be kissing your freedoms away. This is what happens when too many dont worry about it and one nefarious individual with minions attempts to steal several rights away.

Im wondering how on earth can 1 ceo be paid 56 billon dollars? Im having trouble understanding a 56 million dollar salary so Im having quite the time right now trying to figure out a 56 billion dollar one. A judge refused to let the company pay him that much and he, the ceo in question, through a tantrum. I guess he threw a tantrum because his plan to feed the hungry with that 56 billion dollar salary was thwarted. Not even with the help of open source accounting could he ever do anything to help... Like there is nothing he could do... And Christmas is...JUST around the corner. Poor little Tiny Tim. And poor ole ceo. He might just get a visit from the Ghosts of Christmases past, present and future. Sad story. Sad sad story indeed.

Common buddy. (Im saying that with my utmost sincerity) You know the last statement (the bolded part) you made NOT to be true. Americans especially, have worked very very hard to earn their rights and freedoms since 1776. (The birth of your country) And along the way, many many battles have been fought to ensure freedoms for their citizens. And I do NOT mean war battles but those too have been fought to ensure rights and freedoms in your country. The one good thing about America is that you HAVE freedoms and if you, in general you, dont cherish and continue to fight for those freedoms, you will INSTANTLY lose those freedoms and then you wont be able to live a happier life... Its one of those things that you dont know what you;ve got until its gone... Last time I checked, the right to vote and the right to contest and the right to propose and the right to thought right to express an opinion is alive and well in America. And the ONLY way to ensure the survival of said rights is that you HAVE to worry about it and you HAVE to PARTICIPATE in your freedoms to ensure they continue to exist. This is what is called living in a democratic nation. And in fact, it is your DUTY to particpate... Yes CCAP, you actually DO have the power to change shyte in YOUR country. American rights and freedoms in your constitution PERMIT you that right. I wrote a list above on what rights you have. In the US, you have legal channels that you could go to, to ensure that your rights and freedoms stay alive. Women burned their bras in the 60s to fortify their equal rights to man. Rosa Parks defied a bus driver so she sat wherever the phoque she wanted to sit to ensure black people not be second class citizens. Just a few examples. Some battles took a while to win. Some are STILL being fought DESPITE major progress because their is STILL a long ways to go, but the right for RIGHTS is PROTECTED in your country. And hopefully you could see what is happening now politically in your country, democracy is at a very fragile place. And you HAVE to care because if you turn a blind eye to it, it will disappear. It might not be with Trump. It might be in 2 elections from now with an even MORE brazen politician than Trump. But if too many American citizens have a laisser faire attitude, then start kissing your constitution good-bye.

Literally phoque around and find out I say good on her!!! That lyin' cheatin' bastehd wont be cheatin' anymore. Good lookin' too. Probably smaht as well as she more than likely succesfully calculated on how to convinced him to look at their wedding photos to slam it shut on his nuts.

I tried listening to the video but I couldnt get myself settled enought to do so. ADHD? That may be a possibility and I was also helping my son with his homework. My opinion is that I dont think Hell is a difficult place to get into. Its a prestigious club and ANYBODY could get in when temptation is strong enough. In my opinion Hell not need be a physical place but it could be a mental one too. And there could be different types of Hell. Little bastions of Hell making it easier to find on earth. An example: All kinds of fiery sin in that kind of place. The depths of human depravity and suffering. Like I said...temptation in that mini-hell that leads to Hell's resort that eventually leads to the mythical place after death. That would be one sort of hell. Another would be this kind Look how the Devil looks like in the picture below And I didnt want to post the next pic below because of the injured, possibly deceased little girl that brought tears to my eyes. But that is how the Devil works. And we enable him. Some of us in this world do his work for him and this is how he repays us here on earth. We dont even need to wait to die to feel the wrath of God when we dont enter his realm. When God denounces our plea to enter Paradise... We collectively pay for ALL of our sins. And I mentioned Hell could be a mental entity... The best example I could find of this type of Hell. 2 different soldiers in two different wars experinecing PTSD. Shell shock or whatever term we like to call it nowadays. One doesnt even need to be religious to experience Hell or to permanentally live in Hell in life on earth or after death. Hell exists for real and it has NOTHING to do with religion. Religion just scares you about it. Hell truly exists. Its the deepest, shyttyest human thing that humans do either to one another or to onesself... Just my opinion.

I also think it was a stupid firing. The Bruins are missing 2 centermen. When Bergeron was there, they were mssing 1 centerman ever since Krejci left for Europe. Krejci did come back and they had that historical season. But BOTH retired the very next year. Yeah...they never replaced those 2 centermen. You cant really replace a player like Bergeron, but truth is, they need TWO centermen. Last year, the team just played BEYOND their talent. Great year. This year, the Bruins are playing EXACTLY who they really are. A.500 club. And Monty cant do miracles. Ive heard of Lance Stroll. I dont really know how good he is, but Ive had some little insights about him that he isnt really all that. I did know that his daddy partly owns the Aston Martin team so yeah. Id have to agree on that sentiment. F1 racing. There is plenty of nepotism and favoritism that goes on in that league. Hence the Cadillac/Andtretti team problem of getting in. Now, Im sure Michael aint no saint either in regards to the other F1 teams as to why ALL the teams hated him... I also knew that. I was reluctant to say what I said but I wanted to throw a bone at you for saying what I said for the politics talks we have had the last 48 hours or so. Ill try to limit my political talk going forward. Sports and cars only. Promise!

That message above was more of a general 'you' than a you (as in CCAP) 'you. But Im glad that Im firing you (as in you 'you' as in CCAP) up because you should be LIVID at what President #45 done and soon to be President #47 is about to do to your country. That little stunt above is a wrok of TREASON. Because you see what YOU wrote there? Its true that I havent seen you complain the last 4 years. But I havent seen you LIVID about that little stunt Trump pulled on election night in November 2020 and leading up to January 6 2021. He gathered ALL these phoquing yahoos and created a mess out of your country WORSE than ALL the phoquing politicians COMBINED in your country's almost 250 years. Ill even add MY country's politicians as well. No other American OR Canadian politician has EVER dared to do something like that. Benedict Arnold's treasonous act is less ominous as Arnold was not a politician, he was just a ranked soldie, in BOTH British and soon to be newly found country of America armies I might add, BUT he didnt betray your legal document that DEFINES your country. Your democracy, your freedom and your Constitution was SEVERELY tested that day and he has YET to be held accountable for it and he WILL pardon himself for it... Of ALL the rotten shyte that ANY politician or royal figure has EVER done to ANY of its peoples and their country, they ALL eventually have faced the consequences. Napolean to Hitler, Marie Antoinette to Stalin. They ALL have faced a hanging, beheading or exile. Some commited suicide to avoid repercussions but they ALL HAVE FACED THE CONSEQUENCES of phoquing around. FAFO But Trump is LAUGHING at ALL Americans. Including YOU. As in YOU 'you'. Why is it that I am LIVID for YOUR country? What is happening to it and you ALL (general 'you') leave it happen and not one of yous is fighting for YOUR country. Calling them out as a whole? Buddy, there is NOTHING that Harris, Biden, Obama and even the last moronic president you had 20 years in Bush Jr. that they have done that even COMPARES to what Trump done to your country. The Clintons???!!! LOL Even if you believe in the Whitewater scandal, or even if it was true, it PALES in comparison to what Trump done fraudulently... The republicans sure didnt want to let go of the Whitewater scandal. LOL And then there is: In the phoquing bathroom of his Florida resort where MANY people had access to that bathroom... And you 'you', tell me to my face, so to speak, that you hold accountable ALL politcians? I do NOT know how you voted. I do NOT WANT to know how you voted either. But Ill repeat. I do NOT want ANY red blooded American whine to me about how their country is going to shyte. I do NOT want ANY red blooded American whine to me and tell me its the democrats' fault. Other than the few that have vocalized the hatred they have for Trump. Trump riled up ALL the phoquing morons to vote for him. But maybe its time for the GOOD Americans to fight back and get their coutry back in order... Ya'll did it once back in the 1960s. And it wasnt JUST about the Viet Nam war. Women burning their bras for equality. Black folk rallying for equality.

Happy Thanksgiving

He has hair. I do not. But Im better looking than he is. By a looooooong shot. If in fact the FBI found who D.B. Cooper really is, the guy truly is one ugly mofo. He was in his 20s but looked like he was in his 40s back then and why it took the FBI that long to figure out who the phoque he was. They would have had caught him 50 years ago and not now with the help of his kids... I, on the other hand, Im in my 50s but Im one good lookin' SOB now and I was oh soooooo adoreable then in my 20s. I never had a hard time finding dates.

As so am I. Despite me ranting on the other thread, I find our common love for this as a great thing. Looks like Ill be a Formula One fan once again. I used to watch it in the 1990s when local boy Jacques Villeneuve was racing. Now I have a different reason to watch. My love for GM and Ford. Glad we share that same sentiment! That and your St Louis Blues team keeps on taking Bruins talent. Tory Krug and now former head coach Jim Montgomery becoming your head coach. David Backes on the flip side... Jim Montgomery went to the same highschool as I did. We did roam the same halls together AT the same TIME but sadly, I do not know him. I was on the highschool hockey team. He was not. I guess he was too good for a humble highschool hockey team...

Ok...Ill apologize then. Not because of your post, but because I ranted when I should have ignored. Im a tad pissed off with the American delusion and fascination with larger than life criminals and celebrity adoration. Im pissed off with the American justice system for the same delusional and fascination with larger than life criminals and celebrity adoration the DOJ also seem to have. And its not jst the politicians that dont have the demos (common people), but the American demos themselves not giving a shyte about themselves and BLAMING their politicians for behaving that way but the American demos ENABLING greedy and corrupt politicians to eventually continue phoquing them... *sigh* The DOJ could have come to sentence 2 bloody months ago when Trump was found guilty of the 37 accounts of fraud in his criminal case in NYC involving banks. And THAT would mena a prison sentence of whatever years. The January 6 case could have been pushed forward as SOON as he was NO LONGER president and he would have been charged with treason and possibly given a hanging but nope, nothing there. And lastly but not leastly, it does NOT matter what the guilty verdicts in court by a jury of his peers would have done, but American people VOTED in a KNOWN criminal...from waaaaaay before his courth case of THIS year. He is a known common fraudster since the 1980s... MANY of these voters were mesmerized by speeches of rascism and blatant inequality and all kinds of things that is the OPPOSITE of what America is all about INCLUDING JUSTICE FOR ALL... So...do NOT tell me that politicians, ALL of them are bad... because it seems that Americans all they want is the BAD politicians... You phoquers keep on voting them in. Please do NOT tell me that Harris is as bad of a crook as Trump is. She might be a politician that might not care for you...Ill give you that. But she is definetely NOT a fraud, crook and traitor... When Donald J. Trump finally phoques your country up for good and sells your freedoms for his wealth, and possibly mine as a Canadian, because he will put a wedge between our countries and other dictators from other countries will see this divide and further exploit this divide, please dont tell me that ALL politicians dont care for us and that they are all bad. THAT does not fly with me. And please please PLEASE do NOT whine that after what Donnie has done to it, please please PLEASE do NOT say "how did that happen?" or "it was the democrats fault"...

You always seem to want to defend in ANY way possible this Donald J. Trump fellow. I know you say you are the independant voter type, but it seems very odd to me that you always seem to have some sort defense for him. And all Republican type politicians. I really dont care what voter you are and how you vote. Just a pattern I sees. It would be a brain twister for me trying to figure you out had you defended Biden or Harris like you do with Trump when @ocnblu was putting on his show against Obama and Biden, but Im not here to start a political thing with you. I simply dont care. Just wanted to tell you that Ive picked up a certain pattern with you. But...Imma gonna ask you if you feel its kinda odd for Trump and friends to question Harris if she ever worked at McDonald's and to ask for proof. I will admit its kinda odd for a politician to lie about a place of work that may or may not have happened. But to ask for tax slips and pay stubs to a middle aged person (Harris) about a teenager job that she had is kinda odd to me. Who keeps those slips that long anyway? And...to try to belittle somebody about such a MUNDANE thing but for ALL Trump and friends and followers to ACCEPT BLATANT Trump lies about MORE SERIOUS issues is even odder to me... Just sayin' In my 52 years almost on this planet called earth, I havent quite heard another politician quite like Donald J. Trump huff and puff sooooo much hatred with so called toughness. I wasnt alive when Hitler was doing his schtick, so I cant compare Hitler with Trump, but ODDLY enough (that word again that you used and I want to point out just like you like to point out odd things), Trump seems to want to compare himself with Hitler at EVERY turn on his own. Nobody else but him and his favorite media personalities endorse it as well. So no...not like ever other politician. IN THE WORLD let lone DC. Well maybe Putin the last 2-3 years threatening the West( that is us if you havent noticed) with Nuclear attack. Oh...just to be clear. Its thanx to Trump's divisional tactics in his political world and his so called leadership that has weakened and divided Americans that Putin had the balls to attack and try to capture the entirety of Ukraine and it is Trump himself that has caused Word War 3 because make no misytake about it, the planet IS experiencing WW3 right now. Pray it does NOT escalate to harsher weaponry... ALL because Trump talks 'tough'. With his ALLIES...

Formula One Management has accepted GM's bid to be part of the league so Cadillac becomes the 11th team to be on the grid for 2026. Cadillac will partner up with TWG Global which owns Andretti Racing and Wayne Taylor Racing. It looks like Mario will be in charge as director of the team's board rather than his son Michael. Formula One had a problem with Michael. Cadillac for now will be using another manufacturer's engine. No word yet on who but rumors abound that it will not be Alpine/Renault as it was the first time around but Ferrari. I guess Ferrari was smitten when Chevrolet said that a Ferrai 458 and especially its engine was an inspiration for the Corvette C8 Z06 and its engine. That would be my opinion of course. GM promised that it would be an engine producer/supplier by the end of the decade for Cadillac's racing team. The team will race under the Cadillac brand. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a63011375/formula-1-gm-cadillac-team-approved/ https://www.motortrend.com/news/general-motors-cadillac-joins-formula-1-2026/

Montreal mayor madame Valerie Plante and some of her borough representatives wants this to be a thing for Montreal. Life without driving. She is envisioning, but she wont seek a 3rd term on account that her cabinet might be accused for fraud and other stuff, there was and is talk since the summer about some touchy things there so she pre-emptively announced 2 weeks ago that she wont seek a 3rd term, she has another year to go for her term to end, she might want to join Trump's team...but that is for another discussion and Im digressing... She is envisioning a city like a city in Europe where everything is within walking distance and biking distance. And I mean everything. Actually, its a VERY good idea. Montreal was built that way in the beginning anyway because Montreal was a city waaaaay before the automobile. So the older parts of Montreal are still that way. Nothing has changed. Its just that businesses where closed during our 1st and 2nd referendums for separation from Canada which put a huge dent in the city's economic development. Her team revitalised the already green spaces we had, made them bigger, made some renovations to a great amount of public spaces, made those green with grass and trees, enlargened some sidewalks, made bicycle paths everywhere, and made some roads car free. Many drivers hated this idea, myself included, but 7 years of her vision and NOBODY could deny that it HAS become a success FOR the people and FAMILIES LIVING in those areas. And to be real and honest about the whole thing, she did and still DOES want to EXPAND or Metro system but our Premier, Monsieur Legault, he says that Quebec does not have the funds for more Montreal projects and Canada also has OTHER major cities and towns that NEED public funding for their municipal projects. He was not against public transportation to be expanded in Montreal, but lack of funds was the culprit. To be fair to him though, Montreal got a new bridge, because the old one ws about to fall down, the new Champlain bridge. Montreal got a new highway system to accomodate said new bridge. Montreal got a new magnetic train that will enhance Montreal's metro system which has an elaborate path. Montreal will get another new bridge as there is another bridge about to fall down. Montreal gets monies constantly for all kinds of failing infrastructure and other provinces bitch and whine... Wow...what a rant. I needed to say that. All in all, yes, living a life without the need to drive to buy the essentials in life truly is a that is withing walking distance is a great thing. And really, a thing that ALL cities should be striving for. Even new cities that are within the continental United States of America. A car is a car and it does equal freedom. But living a life without a need for a car ALL THE TIME is also another TYPE of freedom that modern humans have forgotten. We need a car for the freedom of travel. But we also need the freedom FROM a car.
