  1. On hold for Rogers/Shaw for an hour and a half now. And that dumb "we're experiencing high call volume"message is only good for so long before it's total bs. No, you're not sorry or you'd fix it. Infuriating.

      Just bear in mind Starlink is owned by Musk. 

      Just another robber baron, this one based in the States.

      Plus, it's not cable (so that won't be solution for Dad)...just looked into it.

       

      Knowing it's Musk's. Hard pass.

      My friend's wife set the 4th of September on purpose for the celebration of life, I forgot that was Peter's birthday. 

      He would have been 52. Happy Birthday Gino. I wish both of you were still with us, and healthy.

  5. Had a greenhouse at work so grew stuff from seeds: tomatoes, basil, parsley, etc.

    Making homemade pasta sauce right now out of those ingredients (and some). Smells delicious.

      anyone having success with beets and carrots? what am i doing wrong?

    4. Ghostsof1915

      Ghostsof1915

      Carrots I'm not sure if it's a nutrient value of the soil. But I remember when my Dad had his gardens basically he just had what looked like baby carrots. I never saw him grow larger type carrots.

  9. Wow, foiled terrorist attack being planned for Taylor Swift concert(s). Three teens radicalized online and arrested.

    ISIS cell was to "cause signficant harm". 19 & 17 year olds in custody...bomb materials, chemicals, machetes. One confessed.

      I have no idea about her music, but she sounds like a pretty solid woman. I do find it funny when people agree with her political stances they cheer. When they don't it's like "Why do you get into politics?" 

      I assume she's better than Kid Rock. 

      I still like supporting Canadian artists.

      Christopher Reeve and MJF were actors dealt a band hand. But they raised awareness for both Spinal Cord research and Parkinsons. I'm heartbroken that my friend in Australia has MS, now his early 20's son has been diagnosed with it as well. Good news the drugs now keep the symptoms from getting worse. So he should have hopefully a relatively normal life. So many medical conditions that can use funding.

      It makes me sad that cures for such debilitating illnesses haven’t been discovered.

       

      What makes me sadder is when good people get them.

      I went to the Theater Arts program at Langara - his sister Keli was in my class.  I met Michael (he came to pick her up to take her out for dinner) just as Family Ties was taking off.  Yes, he's a class act.

  23. Way to go Team Homan! World Champions.

    1. Johngould21

      What a great game, the women's game is really good. Soooo much talent throughout the world.

      Nice comeback to win the gold!

      @Johngould21 That's for sure, the skill level is incredible. Makes it exciting when the gold medal game is so evenly matched like that. Could've gone either way.

       

      @Allegend Right down to the wire, they sure had to earn that win. 

      I feel that team Homan was solid throughout the tournament and only faded slightly on occasion. Really feel they deserved that gold.

  24. Team Homan is phenomenal. 

    1. Baratheon

      Baratheon

      They’re amazing!
      I felt a little bit bad for the Turkish team.  They played awesome but Homan threw those two incredible shots at the end.

    2. -dlc-

      -dlc-

      Yep, that was quite the game. That Turkish team means business. Homan's so clutch...really comes through with the big shots when needed.

       

      I've been lucky enough to see every game so far (been getting up at 5 am to do so). 

       

      So precise ... I love Rachel's game face. Total focus. Good communication on that team too.

  25. Gotta love it...ice delay before the curling starts and they're blasting Metallica.
