Except for Chicago if there's even a bit of traffic. It can add 2 1/2 hours on just a medium traffic day.

I know some antivaxers. This one couple in particular are fucking brilliant. They believe in "non-schooling." I don't remember the official term, but they don't send their kids to school, but provide "rich environments full of learning." Their ten year old can't really read. And they are self...

Post of the night.

The media is out of control. Get the hell out of the way for about five minutes and let the players talk to each other!

Shit performance by the Rams' offense. No touchdowns in the biggest game of your life? You have one fucking job! You failed.

Right? wtf?

A Winnipeg/Toronto final would be fantastic, too.

Going to a superbowl party tomorrow. Shrug. I didn't even know who was in it for sure because I don't follow the NFL at all. Someone asked me to bring the same ribs I brought last time they hosted, which was, I think, five years ago. So, Gordon Ramsay sticky ribs it is. They're really good.

Can someone explain why Anderson wasn't in net for Toronto tonight? I mean, they squeaked out a win, but why put in your second stringer against the Penguins? Toronto moved the puck really well in the offensive zone. Fun to watch that first line.

I would give my eye teeth for a Toronto-Calgary cup.

Man, my kids have had snow days for the last three days. Tomorrow is a 2 hour delay with the potential of cancellation again. If they cancel again tomorrow we will have all been home together with only minor interruptions since Monday night, and going in to the weekend there will be more time...

-50 wind chill here. It has been crazy.

Yeah, you're right. It baffles me that it's cheaper to buy produce that has been grown, harvested, chopped, frozen, and then sold. WTF is wrong with us?

I'd bust it through to the plumbing so you can do a 90 degree to the existing plumbing, but that might work.

While you are correct that if all you are looking for is price, the taste difference between fresh, canned and frozen is huge. If you can find a way to eat both fresh AND cheaply, that'd be fantastic. Some of us are hoping for that.

Organic fecal transplants. Not just the usual kind.

Don't do a u-turn with toilet plumbing. Your instincts are right, that would be a very bad idea.

And the flavour. Home-grown tomatoes are better than grocery store tomatoes. Always.

I have a good friend who had a vasectomy reversed after he got married a second time. He and his wife had three kids in very short order, and then he got fixed again. He said it was "no big deal." If you want another, go for it!

So I have many friends who live in major city centres. Toronto, Chicago, Montreal, Los Angeles, blah blah blah. Every one of them who is interested in home garden has found a Unity Garden or similar at a church, mosque, or community centre. It's free in most cases, too. Now if everyone in the...

I have three knives that I use on the regular. 10 inch chef knife from Henckels, which is about 20 years old, has a wood grip, and is awesome. A Wusthof serrated knife for bread and such. And a cheap ass paring knife which I replace about every 7 or 8 months because I haven't found a good one in...

That's pretty amazing.

Sorry guys. I worked in a meat processing place and made hot dogs. It's hard to eat them after that.

Brand name windows will always last longer. Pella is a good brand, and a decent company to work with. My house was built in 1977 with casement windows. I really like casement windows for the way they open, and the fact that they seem to seal better than sliders. They're also easy to remove and...

The trouble with corn dogs is that you get through the breading and it's a hot dog. blah. I'm thinking ribs for the superbowl. Who has a favourite home made rib sauce?

We have Allstate for everything, and they have been fantastic in all instances. Their prices seem quite competitive, too. Our policy is quite a bit higher, but we have acreage and several buildings. I'll stick with Allstate for all my insurance needs.

There is a lot of uncomfortable truth in this. We have a couple that are pretty close friends. They have kids, they're nearly fifty, and he's very obese. He gets sweaty going up a flight of stairs. He's just plain out of shape, and he's doing nothing about it. His father died at 55, his mother...

Okay, so the home gas range I have has one burner that's quite large for super fast heat. Boiling water? Takes no time. Today I am staying at a friends house. Made some boiled eggs. Was rustled by how long it took the water to boil. Their electric range is, without question, slower than my gas...

There really should be some way to get that out without bending your trim. Keep looking. Be brave.

May not be worth the trip...

I understand the opposite is true. Electric ovens are far more consistent in their temperatures, and gas stove tops, even the residential grade, far out perform electric in speed and efficiency. I don't know about high heat cooking, what do you mean by that exactly?

Are they from Portland? Just bloody hilarious. I love that guy.

And I'm remembering now that Menards will actually make a pretty quality window to custom size for under $300 (provided it's an average size, and not huge). You might want to check that out, too.
