My Union conducted an organizing drive at a WalMart store in Ontario. We lost the vote, but the Employer' conduct during the campaign had been so egregious, we didn't even request a re-vote. We requested and were awarded an automatic certification. Of course, our spineless liberal government right a...

If the Union can show that the Employer engaged in illegal practices that impacted the election, then a new vote is in order. Likewise, if the empl...

I'm not a ham, but when there's a threat of lightning I disconnect my antenne and short out both sides.

Also, I disconnect from AC.

Keep riding and you just might, TT. I'm on my 4th or 5th Trek. I once strayed and bought a Specialized and regretted it. Trek makes a solid bike. My wife had an Electra Townie and it was a real good bike too. Wear your helmet! I'm a socialist and my neighbour is a conservative. But we're good frien...

And keep the car for 20 more years.

I don't have 20 years left in me.

27,000 miles is NOTHING. Barely even broken in. I would keep it another 4 or 8. Why waste the money?

Hey. Now I can just ride my bike.

So, I've decided to keep the vehicle one more year. It just turned 4 years old today. I bought it in the spring of 2020 when covid was raging. For the first year, I barely drove it. There was nowhere to go. We had to stay home from Florida that year. So now, after four years it has less than 44,000 ...

Most annoying radio ad.

There is a lot of competition for the title such as Ox Car Care, Better Help, Kars 4 Kids.

But, hands down, the winner is California Psychics. I have to turn the radio off every time.

They both fucking suck. Biden's advantage is he hasn't suggested his supporters overthrow the government.

Hey. In 2020 he asked them to overthrow the Trump regime and they did.

In Stephen King's novel Christine, one of the characters is reminiscing about his old car that he had bought when it was new. He says " The smell of a brand-new car. That's just about the finest smell in the world, 'cept maybe for pussy."

What’s the rush to have a new car? 4 isn’t very old. Cars today have way more life in them than that. It's out of warranty now. And maybe I just like driving a new car. For years I drove old wrecks. After I was first able to buy my first new car, I like to stay in a new car. Maybe, after years of d...

I don't think there's a new vehicle sold by any manufacturer these days in the US or Canada that doesn't have a/c and cruise control standard on the basest of base models. And if have to spend extra money on a package of stuff you don't want for satellite radio, just spend $100 or so and get one of...

When I lived up north, I never had AC in my cars and never felt the need for it. But living now in south west Ontario, where the summers are hotter and spending about 6 months a year in Florida, I wouldn't want to be without it. But south west Ontario is a radio desert. So I need satellite radio. Cr...

I have a base model GMC Acadia… it has cruise, satellite radio and AC. Everything else is basic. I believe the Acadia is also a big vehicle. Would I need a bus driver license to operate it? I suppose the base model Cadilac would also have all the features I want, but I just want an affordable, work...
