    Donating to charities

    Yes but first you invest that hundreds of thousands of money , peel off the interest , then the administrative costs of collecting which when done right cost your company nothing . Don’t get me wrong , the money eventually gets somewhere and does good , raising the companies profile and helping...

    COVID and the housing market

    Let’s not waste any time on financial awareness classes . And please put an empty room tax in place, a capital gain on primary residence, and maybe a sq ft fee for the air space over my head , which I share with the indigenous and First Nations that share my backyard . My first second or third...

    Donating to charities

    My wife and daughter are large supporters of pet rescues , and now also the wolf dog sanctuary in Alberta. They both like animals more than people , odd being one is an office manager for two naturopaths and the other a retired peadi nurse . Or maybe not odd . We do a fund raiser in both my...

    Pickup Trucks

    I’m putting a cap on as I have stuff I’d like secure and not in the cab , I have another trailer ( F me ) and can rent a truck anytime I need to move something taller than a cap . If it’s messy or too tall, Budget rental can fix that. Sent from my iPhone using GTAMotorcycle.com

    November 11th

    I wonder what the political and geographic landscape would look like in Europe had those conflicts not taken place . We lost family in the first and second big war . My dad would never speak about his experiences and my father in law never stopped talking about it . Every man fought a different...

    Cheapskates Corner

    I often buy less than premium roasts and steaks and cook it peasant style , in a Dutch oven with vegetables and a tomato sauce . Slow cookers take a crap twenty buck roast to a better place . Sent from my iPhone using GTAMotorcycle.com

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    There is probably a municipal bylaw for how close to a property line a tub can be and motor noise , but you have to decide if you want to be ‘that guy’ . I left a three yr old tub when we moved houses , I miss that thing daily . Loved it . Sent from my iPhone using GTAMotorcycle.com

    RV & Trailer Discussion

    Not every MB dealer can service the Sprinter deisel , not every dealer has a deisel van certified mechanic. But worst case its a long tow to somewhere that can. From what i have read on forums the engine usually gives you some indication before it quits. Service is not inexpensive. We owned one...
