    Roofer recommendation for Hamilton/Burlington area...

    We used to live in Guelph and Dowle and Son did an amazing job replacing our roof and then coming back to do some soffit work to help keep Raccoons out. Looking for a similar, quality roofer to fix the gutters on our roof and give us a quotation for roof repair. Have any recommendations...

    WiFi help for an older PC...

    I had the Cogeco tech come out today. Now on the "5G" WiFi I can get about 140MB/Sec or so and on the "regular" WiFi it comes out to about 78 MB/sec. These are numbers on my cell phone with the data turned off. On the Switch the "5G" WiFi gives me about 40 to 48 MB/sec. The PC in our "office"...

    Back at Toronto Indy again...

    Any other members here? Excited about Colton Herta as a rookie. He has done really well on the Nascar feeder curcuit and is only 19 as an Indy rookie. I usually watch Power and Dixon and cheer for Hinchie. I will have to add Herta to my hat and jersey collection. Beautiful day. Got pretty...

    Water Softeners... Best One Out There?

    Not the most exciting idea for a thread I realize... I am pretty sure that our 18 year old Ecowater Water Softener is in need of replacement. We had it repaired a few years ago and I do not think it makes sense to spend possibly hundreds of dollars to repair it again considering the age of the...

    Hi All, First off what in the world is going on with my basement drain! Wowsa! https://youtu.be/fnh_yPAx53o There is steam coming out of the drain and some of the concrete near the drain is warm to the touch. Very strange. We are thinking of having our main checked out with a camera and...

    Any SCUBA enthusiasts in the house? Recommendations for dive shop and certifications.

    Hi All, Just got back from a wonderful week or sun and snorkelling in Cozumel. Another vacation where I pondered getting SCUBA certification while I was on vacation. I have been thinking of getting certified since I did one of those "discovery dives" about 10 years ago. Recession hit and now...

    Any Car Audio Experts or Buffs out there with some advice?

    So... I should have my "new" truck either Wednesday or Thursday this week: I am asking on a Ram Forum about the Uconnect unit in this truck and what I can do with external amplifiers: In my HHR I replaced all the speakers and used the Kenwood head unit to drive the speakers and then this...

    Talk to Zoodles about Trucks... Mid size and 1/2 Ton...

    So... I am looking at finally getting a Hybrid trailer and I will need something to tow it with. Hybrid trailers look like a typical camping trailer but the beds slide out like a pop up trailer: http://www.forestriverinc.com/product-details.aspx?LineID=156&ModelID=964#Main A minivan like a...

    Gah... Seam split on my gloves. Recommended thread to repair them?

    So... I stop into a Shoppers Drug Mart after work to pick up a couple of things (top case is handy for that) and when I put my gloves back on this happened: Luckily I have a back up pair of gloves. I would rather not have a seam split at all but at least it did not occur with an off. There...

    Anyone here have a Shoei GT air or Icon Alliance GT?

    I am getting sick of the twice a day shield swap. I am starting to get a hankering for a helmet with a built in drop down sunvisor. The Shoei GT Air is obviously an entirely different price point. I imagine it would be a lot quieter than my current Icon Alliance helmets (yes I own multiples but...

    What are your upgrades to your bike for this season?

    Last year I installed the Ram mount for the cell phone, USB charger, and changed the chain, sprockets, rear brakes and a rectifier recall. This season I am finally going to fix the biggest flaw I see in my bike. I am joining the aftermarket seat club! Much nicer construction and fit and...

    Washer And Dryers... Any still reliable and able to last a decade?

    So... The washer which came with our house when it was built is finally on its way out (just a shade over 16 years old). This is a basic Whirlpool washer which is top loading and will shred any delicates you feed to it. Technology has come a long way and there are a ton of features. We...

    FS: Velocity VR Pro Gloves XL Size...

    These are still unused believe it or not. I am still using my black ones and now that I don't have a blue bike... Well... These don't fit into my future plans. These are from the last group buy and these were custom ordered with being all blue instead of blue and white. Price is $200 cash...

    Heys luggage... A thumbs up!

    I have typically been pretty cheap when it comes to luggage. Buy stuff on sale, use it, gets rough with use, chuck/donate... Rinse and repeat. My wife travels more than I do and is one who is typically very frugal but will spring for quality footwear and other things that she gets good use out...

    Looking for a new bed. Your experiences and recommendations?

    I realize that a choice of mattress is very personal and subjective. However, I am finding it difficult to figure out what is what with beds nowadays. For instance, we are both open to a foam mattress or a foam hybrid mattress. Check out the Serta iComfort. Trouble is that it is hard to...

    Gah... Shootings in Germany... What a mess...

    Some reports suggest three different shooters. http://edition.cnn.com/2016/07/22/europe/germany-munich-shooting/index.html My thoughts go out to the injured, deceased, and their family and friends... I hope this is not related to the ax attack a few days ago. What a mess... :(

    Whoever these idiots are take it off the 401 Westbound! This was just west of the 427

    Seriously? Thanks for making other Motorcyclists look bad... Two of the riders did not seem to have plates. Lack of gear. The tshirts riding up so I could see your back hair on the 401 was a nice touch. Icon vests were well represented. Two of these guys actually have some serious skill and I...
