Same question should be asked of Harper, PP, Scheer. Byrne et al. Frequently.

Amen!

Salmon congee for lunch today. Yum. Being 🇨🇦 with 🇬🇧 ancestry I did add Lea & Perrins Worcestershire sauce. Is that ok? 😆

Ever been to a yacht club? I love “sailing”. 🤣

Fair point but that was cholera.

First time I have seen that word spelled correctly in recent memory! 👍

I start stuff and figure it out as I go. Everything is a series of “fix it” decisions. Always of the mechanical vs sociological sorts of problems. I figure that as a 1950’s baby I would have been diagnosed with something except that they didn’t back then. You were just a “difficult” kid.

Good afternoon!

Any steps to diminish our independence from the US are okay in my books.

A PC, yes but I doubt your second sentence is accurate. PP is most certainly taking marching orders from Herr Harper however. There is an old meme about not expecting perfection just catch the bus heading in the right direction even though it may not get you all the way. That’s where we are now IMHO

Whatever his faults, I’ll take him over that maple-maga pissant heading the Cons any day of the week.

Evergreen (everblue?) post! Useful for many occasions and people.

Yrs ago in Bahamas we had steel hull with 2-1/2” air space behind furniture. I allowed air to circulate between bilge & under deck. Again bone dry while friends in production glass boat Niagara 35 were up to armpits in wet towels. So much water accumulated we had to pump it out every week.

No need for a de-h, almost the reverse. Boat is bone dry. A wet face cloth will dry out stiff in 24 hours. Never get condensation on windows. Suspect colder hull surfaces in engine room act as air dryer. Condensate ends up in the bilge.

We had a busy few days getting the winter cover frame up and shrink-wrap on ahead of the forecast snow. Made it with about 12 hours to spare. Today we got 4” wet snow. No wind, just hours of very fine white stuff filtering straight down. -5C tonight but we are cozy down below.

If the recipient is not wearing I.D. and has face covered are they even a cop?

Exactly! Unfortunately the word “spouse” comes into play here. 😖

I have a friend who insists it’s ok to fly YYZ to MIA to pick up a (disease-ridden?) cruise ship to visit Caribbean destinations. Verbal cautions re ICE/Covid/RSV/Norovirus risks fall on deaf ears. This year it seems hurricane damage to those islands might cancel the cruise. It’s an ill wind etc.

💡Key findings:

📍vaccines for COVID KP.2 variant had 68% effectiveness

📍Maternal RSV vaccine & RSV vaccines in adults >=60 had effectiveness of >=68% against hospitalization

📍Flu shot had effectiveness of 48% in adults ages 18-64 & 67% in kids against hospitalization

This short thread is a must-read. Especially for our #USAmerican friends.

So close!

Just saw a tv commercial that used instrumental intro to #SmallTownBoy. Not sure how I feel about this. Good for the band I guess but seems a bit sacrilegious to me.

Poilievre needs to get away from the imaginary scenario that he will ever be PM.

In a universe long ago and far away flying Air France (or Brit) Concord was the way to go transatlantic. I couldn’t afford it then or now but the future looked great then!

Would it be cruel and unusual or just and appropriate punishment to chain Bibi to a dungeon wall, lock the door and let him starve to death like his child victims in Gaza? Just asking. #Genocide

On to the tenth! 👍😁

YES! #GoJays

Might not be too long. He will be deceased the way things appear to be going.

Hope you all are having a blessed Thursday
