    covid-19

    I'm guessing that by spring I will need it to cross the border. I have friends who are talking like they are vaccine shy, but want to be able to travel to the US to skydive. Maybe someday, if they get their inoculations.
  2. I keep about 30% there. As a hedge against currency fluctuations. And some virtue signalling I guess.
  3. All true Joe, but completely dodges the question. Although I will say that as an investor in many companies listed on the mighty NY Exchange, most Canadians are paying Uncle Sam some good old USD.
  4. And he does. His people love him and they are many. Thankfully not quite as many as have learned to hate him. There is very little middle ground.
  5. Sure Lippy. I suppose you think Q is untrue as well.
  6. This one is not looking good. https://www.npr.org/2020/12/07/943829901/police-in-ohio-say-slain-black-man-brandished-a-gun-family-says-he-held-a-sandwi
  7. Did you talk then and there in a similar way to the way you keyboard here? It is possible that other less offensive white people in your trailer park may have got along somewhat better than you did.
  8. "Play the topic, not the player. Wendy P." I will admit to stepping over the line unnecessarily. I could have said the same thing in a different way. But I would have needed more words, which I try to avoid.
  9. There, I gave you an excuse to pull it out, set it up, and take picture. You're welcome.
  10. What a thing of beauty. Will it wipe out virii?
  11. I have not. I have not been that way for more than 10 years. It's out of range for me on my one week on truck share thankfully.
  12. Oh good God. Imagine being caught in a wreck in the middle of that!
  13. They should build a causeway from Racine to Saugatuck!
  14. The temperatures and pressures they will operate at internally compared to either reciprocating or turbine engines will make seem to be maintenance free in comparison.
  15. That must be where you learned to talk so trashy about others.
  16. Almost like throwing someone else’s tea into a harbour. String the commies up! Do it now!
  17. Tibet is now part of China. In the same way that TX, CA, and the spoils of conquest are part of the USA.
  18. Rules change when circumstances change. It all ties into human adaptability. There is a lot of dramatic language and claims around this. There is an emergency situation happening. It is temporary. In the meantime there have been far more than very few deaths, and there is going to be a large but not yet quantified number of damaged people who will need help in the years to come. Most people are going to choose to do their part as best as they can. others are not willing, but will mostly be forced to anyway. Ya pays yer money and ya takes yer choice.
  19. If I may interject here. And even if I may not.. I have seen more than one person try to get in the last word with Jakee. It does not seem possible for him to allow that to happen. So.....it will not end till Mark moves on. Just sayin'
  20. Oh hum.....Who really cares what is motivating the weapons worshiping crowd to spend more of their hard earned USD on even more hardware? They can only use one at once and the harm of having so many in the hands of those who would misuse them is already done.
  21. As they are with the Uighurs. And are much closer to seceding. But Tibet and it's Buddhism has a certain appeal to our western minds. The Uighurs are just a bunch of Muslim natives no one cares about.
  22. So long. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TW-HnAfUqA8
  23. I love me some good old white privilege. It's great when I pull up to the booth at the border. Both directions actually. Especially if I keep my hair short and look a little military. They are downright friendly because there are a lot of "new Canadians" in truck driving who get a lot more attention. And nearly all CBP officers are ex-military.
  24. China and the Han Chinese are definitely working to displace and replace other local people and cultures wherever they can. How do you feel about the plight of the Uighurs?
