    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    I built 64 feet of shelving, multiple benches, and places to hang all of my tools that don’t fit in the tool chest…. So that would never happen….except this happens on a regular ongoing basis.

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    I hear you. Still drives me a little batty. I have somebody else’s entire household temporary stuffed into one side of my garage so I can’t even compare apples to oranges here…picture-wise…as my shelves and benches are buried behind their stuff, but the urge to rebuilt his shelf’s are strong...

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    This is pretty cool. It’s not often that tax can lift people’s spirits but Ukrainian authorities may have done just that, assuring citizens that any Russian military equipment they seize won’t need to be declared for tax purposes. “Have you captured a Russian tank or armoured personnel carrier...

    Conservatives demanding O'Toole resign again

    Sound sounds like a smear campaign by a Liberal & not that he should be a Liberal. Got it.

    Omnibus : Gas prices, Oil prices, Embargos

    I wonder how that’s gonna fit with the Costco sales model? Their whole business concept is built on stock piling. 😁

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    Every time I watch a “Beau” video, I really want to dismantle & reassemble those shelves behind him. Yeah, I know it’s petty, but damn!! They could be done so much cleaner without 2x4’s sticking out along the front (with only a single screw at each level ?). It doesn’t detract from what he’s...

    Omnibus : Gas prices, Oil prices, Embargos

    Now, Factor that across everything that has to be shipped using diesel fuel (like by train or truck, etc…) & assume that this isn’t the maximum price yet as April fools day hasn’t hit yet…. And then have somebody justify how this is not gonna affect the price of everything that needs to be...

    Omnibus : Gas prices, Oil prices, Embargos

    Just looked, & $1.589 seems to be the number at Co-op gas stations in Regina. Reverse engineering the math and factoring out her lottery ticket, I would’ve put in about 50 litres into a 70 litre tank, so the top up on 1/3 of a tank checks out.

    Power vacuums generally don’t produce gentler & more benevolent dictators.

    Omnibus : Gas prices, Oil prices, Embargos

    I don’t even look at the signs locally, but just clench up and fill up. Was down to 1/3 of a tank my little Dakota yesterday so I stopped in and topped up the tank, and bought the girlfriend a lottery ticket, and it was just shy of a total of $90. Good times. April fools day will be the next...

    April Fools!! Here's your Carbon Tax F#ckers!!!

    Once you’re competent with it, it’s a definite feeling of empowerment. You just have to be gentle so you don’t break anything around you. You would run your 12 hour shift in it and then tag out to the next guy, and 12 hours later you a tag back in. They are definite workhorse, with a fuel tank...

    April Fools!! Here's your Carbon Tax F#ckers!!!

    Unfortunately I base all 4x4’s mentally against the 844K2 that I ran for years in their abilities (which I ran for years) so I’m usually disappointed. Sure wish I had one yesterday. Would’a made short work of parking that trailer, & I could have cleaned out every road in that yard in my spare...

    Trucker Blockade Caused Lasting Psychological Damage to Canadians

    That’s a different perspective, & I just though she was a shitty ventriloquist. This Chick beats Freeland hands down (pun intended) if I’m right.

    Trucker Blockade Caused Lasting Psychological Damage to Canadians

    Watch this short video. Freeland is wearing a mask so you can’t see her lips move… much. She sort’a looks like she’s Tweaking until you realize she’s actually mouthing the speech word for word for word….

    Conservatives demanding O'Toole resign again

    Allegations of sexual misconduct that he denies? You’d think he’d be a Liberal?

    April Fools!! Here's your Carbon Tax F#ckers!!!

    This was a truck up for sale so it didn’t even have a snowbrush in it. I dug myself out (4 times) with a 2’ long chunk of 2x4. This above was what was left for me. It’s a 35’ trailer that needed to be tucked in a 40’ stall. …but the road is ice below the snow and the driver left it there last...

    April Fools!! Here's your Carbon Tax F#ckers!!!

    I had to dig out the 2500 this morning, as I needed the 4 x 4 feature to get a trailer parked that a driver couldn’t get parked in our yard…. And after getting stuck four freaking times where I had to unhitch the trailer to get the truck unstuck four times, I left the trailer right in the middle...

    One of our drivers sent me the below pic today. He was in BC on his way to Edmonton. He took the pic while driving, but you get the gist of things…

    April Fools!! Here's your Carbon Tax F#ckers!!!

    I need a truck for work. I have parked the 2500, and have been using my 30 year old Dakota (pretty civil if driven civilly), well my girlfriend has been using our fuel sipping Suzuki. Even in this crazy shitty weather we’ve been dealing with for the last couple months, just commuting in the...

    Freeland: Canadians should brace for economic collateral damage

    Our last trip, we really didn’t even look around our resort until the night before we were leaving because we were too busy elsewhere. We went everywhere up and down the #307 in Collectivo’s visiting friends & making new ones. The night before we would have a rough plan of two or three things...
