A few years ago we toured Auschwitz. Nothing prepared me for that and nothing has ever touched me so deeply in my life. I literally could not speak.

This POS was not like O'Leary, Trump or anyone in or else seeking political office in the US or Canada today. This "thing" was pure evil.

The thing that haunts me is the pictures of flesh covered skeletons, their eyeballs protruding from their skulls waiting around to burned in the ovens, and the children and infants that were simply thrown onto the fire when still alive.

If you ever have the chance to go there it will certainly change your perspective on what human suffering and pure evil actually is. It should be a required school trip for teenager.

Did he start up a fund on Mars I didn't hear about?

As stated before O'leary's financial dealings aren't what he makes them be. I would not invest money or time in him, you have a better return with the lotto.

Thing is softkey was in trouble before being sold and o'leary knowingly misrepresented the company being sold. Kind of like a shady car salesman.

You can do something about this today. There is hope if enough people stand up.

You CAN do something. You have that ability today. Encourage people to help. We just had a corporate ski/snowboard event in aid of Darfur at blue mountain. OK $600 is a drop in the bucket, but if everyone did it......

In Germany and Poland the vast majority of people did nothing, and even in this thread people are being compared to Hitler as if he was just another crazy socialist politician. There was even the comment that Hitler was "entertaining" I find that out of order, even if people were just trying to be a horses ***.

Hitler wasn't a one trick pony. He had a full life before "the incident". That's like saying Charles Manson is all about Helter Skelter. Hitler was a painter, Manson gave the the music business a go. People conveniently seem to forget that. I'm getting a headache. I'm gonna go hang around the bolt extractor thread.
 
I'm not staying in Ontario after I retire. Too expensive here. I see that Toronto Liberals are all moving west now after ruining Ontario. You can tell by the Alberta ridings that are now going Liberal and NDP. I'll move to Mexico if I have to.

A lot of people are moving to atlantic canada. I was shocked, but they love people there for making sense. Love the out doors etc... As a bonus, they don't ever have to see Kathleen Wynne ever again.

Because government corruption is unheard of in Mexico, right?

A few friends have actually been talking about doing a Saddle Sore Iron Butt - 1000 miles in a day - to support food aid in either Syria or the Sudan.

The thought is that we would try to get money through crowdfunding and 100% of the money contributed would go to the charity as we'll pay our own gas, etc.

I'm actually kind of stoked about the idea. It would be good to have a Saddle Sore day where thousands of riders would participate across the country.

My friend just moved to St. Johns. He loves it. Got some money from a incubator fund and they started a little business around VR.

He sent me pictures. Looks beautiful.

I keep thinking the same thing, but the reality is....health insurance.

I'd love to completely cash out my house and other unnecessary crap here when I retire and move somewhere nice, but that damn health insurance thing keeps ruining my dream - it costs a fortune when you're old and retired, particularly if you need it full-time, ie you're not back in the province/country enough months of the year (permanently gone) and you loose your nice socialized care we all enjoy here.

In a perfect world we never get sick and need a hospital, or a surgery etc etc....but reality in your retirement years is usually quite different.

As much as I dislike riding on the highways, I would be in for this.
