    Telus (telecommunications company) has been putting Fiber Optic in our neighborhood for the last month. They park their trucks in front of my house every night. They are running the tubes in my yard right now. Still not a word from Telus on pricing or anything though, and you can't even get a...

    Other than the toddlers thinking it's okay to jump on me at anytime from 1am-5am and think it's a game when I put them back in bed? So far so good!! I've been taking melatonin before bed, I'll keep that up for the next few weeks just to be on the safe side

    @Antifragile you are not the only one with beautiful views! Might not be as instagram worthy as it doesn't have a lake in the photo, but I'll take a wonderful forest with beams of light straight from heaven basking my bike in brilliance any day!! This was from a few hours ago

    Calgary removed roads for bike lanes, and it snows here 5 or so months a year. As an avid biker I absolute hate the bike lanes here. They are poorly though out, and several sections are actually very dangerous as what driver shoulder checks left for bikes to make a left turn?

    How did Calgary make #4, and yet didn't even make the top 10 in Canada from the last list you posted? I just ask because this is literally where I am typing this from. It is beautiful in the summer here, but the government is taking total control. The municipal government is on a tax raising...

    Just go get some magnesium supplements and start taking them! It is very cheap for basic magnesium, and it will literally start making a difference the day you start taking it. Later down the road start working on it in your diet (dark leafy greens, I put lots of spinach in a fruit smoothie) or...

    I am thinking that the smaller number in "4x" return on investment looked like junk compared to those super stable large number investments like "8%". Bring on that 8% baby! That is twice the number that 4 is!

    Well just got back from my ride, we had originally planned on doing a more difficult trail but I requested the easy trail as per my getting 0 sleep (and like 4 hours the night prior). 21.5km distance with 685m vertical. Not too bad. My Garmin say I burned ~1000 calories. Now time to try to get...

    Anyone else experience insomnia after getting covid? That is the only thing I can think of. I have never really experienced this in my life before, and this is twice now in two weeks that I have not slept. The first time I at least fell asleep at about 7am and got a bit of rest. Today again I...

    I went for dinner at my parents yesterday and my aunt and uncle were there. They drove down from Victoria (1000+ km away) in a Tesla model 3 with no issues. They also spent some time further East in the heart of farmland county near a town of 500 people. All managed just fine in the Tesla. I...

    Just did my first small workout post Covid. Lol, my strength is DOWN! Just working out in my basement, so I never go crazy. But doing like 60% of what I normally do was really difficult. My smell at range is still pretty non existent, but if I stick things right under my nose I can smell it. I...

    Wow, I never even thought of this. I was taking my wife and son to an appointment in a new area of town a few days ago and Google did this. It was a big curving loop around a business section, with a few turns to get into the area with the building we needed, or a straight path and a single left...

    This scares me about my brother, he literally uses GPS to go anywhere. Even places he has been 20x before. He has no idea how to get anywhere. My brain remembers directions, and I am thankful for that. It mostly seems like a useless skill, but it's great for showing off. I could drive around...

    Canada, destroying another industry to be part of the woke mob. Way to go guys! What other countries did this backfire horribly in? What we all need is more government mandated! That's the way to go. Government knows best.

    I guess the key is being able to solve issues and do them by searching for them. Give one of these kids a problem and tell them to solve it, I bet they won't even be able to look it up and do the actions. My spelling is also shot to crap, and I can barely write. I started writing stuff down...

    Government's is as much a business as running a cartel or a gang is a business. It's a group, larger than the next group, imposing their will.

    I see it as longer. Look at all the 90 year old dudes who still work hard in their business every day. They keep their minds active and enjoy what they do, and they live a long and productive life. Now look at all the 70 year old's past retirement on the edge of death who have nothing to do...

    Does this fall under "trust the experts"? Experts can't be wrong. After all, they are experts and you are just some regular citizen who knows nothing.
