John,
Just say a handsome man with substance and mystery( I’ll do the rest) She doesn’t have to be a Dane either hence the term “ sugar mommy “
I figure the trend getting “ sugar daddies “ to pay for their tuition, I might as well do the same , to get into another vehicle to replace slo turd.

These beers go down so well with this weather.. come November I don’t have one for weeks.

I love my fox and it’s fun to drive and all but seriously lacks the jam. I’m torn.. do I build a motor? Or do I just get a s550 and be done?

Yes, this weather makes beer drinking extremely enjoyable :cheers:

Did you ever go with the coil-over setup you were contemplating?
Suspension and brakes so I could go around corners made me forget the serious lack of jam ....until I hit the Andretti straightaway

99-04 GT brakes are fine for what I do, night and day difference vs. fox brakes. Better pads would help even more. Suspension, bilsteins all around with mm springs and mm rear control arms. Panhard bar was a huge upgrade. The car handles great for what it is and I love the look.. but yeah, no jam. I’ve pondered slapping on a used blower.. something small, 6 psi or so. But then I would have to load the trunk with copious amounts of rotella 15-40. The motor is reliable but tired.

I think I've narrowed down my craziness to the deep down need to build things. I'm most happy when I'm creating something, I guess that's why I started off as a graphic designer and enjoy construction and making "music"... Right now I'm in a bit of a slump at work. Yes, I'm building a whole new department, policies and processes which is fun (for me) however I'm told the business needs to catch up to me - or in other words, they aren't "ready" to start leveraging and appreciating the frameworks I've built to better manage things. Yesterday I started learning a whole new programming language (developing a data-warehouse and AI) for fun and no one else in IT wanted to, I got the thing built and people are using it. Love that feeling!

Anyway this morning I was chatting with the wife (we wake up at around 4:30am, not sure why). I'm debating just taking on a basic contract with a huge pay cut like 80k a year type thing and free up some time to start a business or partner with an existing (there may be an opportunity for that). But the business I want to get into won't have anything to do with IT Governance frameworks, or PMOs or whatever. I'd LOVE to be part of something tangible. Like building decks, fences, landscaping, kitchen remodels, basements or anything that people can enjoy for years. I want to hang my suites and ties and put on my CSA boots and hardhat lol.

The other part of me is I have a lot of business acumen, I can do business plans, business cases, financials (wife is better as she has the designations for this), digital marketing, communications, PR, project management, talent development/management, etc... I can also do a lot of hands-on stuff as well. I'm often thinking why am I so lazy to not take advantage of my skills for my own good and not only build things for people to enjoy but build a business for the family. It's hard to take risks though, I think that's my problem right now. I'm just not sure what that will look like, I just know I need change. I wish my current role was setup for success, I'd feel a little better about it.

Wayyyy back when the E30 M3 first came out I fell in love with that car. Prices have skyrocketed for them now it was my opportunity to get one. I had a 330 ZHP car but was not the same. I was originally looking to get an M3/M4 (used of course), an M2 Competition or the GT350 (as you know) but I heard some bad things about the S55 motor on the M3/M4 which is used on the M2 Competition so I passed on that. I looked at new and used GT350's but I couldn't get over the crap fit and finish on the exterior and interior. The new ones all came with the upgraded comfort leather seats but I wanted Recaro's. Honestly, I love my M2. Phenomenal driving machine for sure.

UFC card looks pretty good tonight .

[5.4MarkVIII]

Tried out a new campground along the saugeen river between Hanover and Walkerton beautiful spot mix of seasonal and temp sites. Decent privacy and owned by a young couple who just purchased it last year. I have done ALOT of camping own a truck and 27ft trailer and some years use it almost every weekend during the summer. It’s pretty common that most places have a “local wood only” rule for fire wood (from the ash borer issue) so we typically stop when close and grab wood from a close by road side stand (lots of times it’s kids chopping and selling for cash and stuff) this time there is a saw mill not ten min away so I stop and grab a bunch of the cut offs. More than I will need for 3 nights but it was $20 and I typically leave the left overs for the next person (or the neighbor site to steal as soon as we drive away) it wasn’t until we were in the site and set up and unloaded that I noticed a sign that said “NO OUTSIDE WOOD ALLOWED IN THE PARK PLEASE PURCHASE WOOD FROM THE OFFICE” something along those lines. I think. Oh damn already got wood but don’t mind supporting a young couple just starting out in a new business venture. So I drove up to the office and buy 2 bundles for $7 each plus tax. For the same slab wood I got at the other place that they bundled up. Maybe 5 pieces of wood per bundle. Far more money for wood than I have ever paid at any camp ground. Including the provincial ones. But what ever.

Fast forward to tonight our last night here and the owner stops by to change a garbage and sees the wood. Asks where I got it. I said we brought it in with us. He replied I’m gonna have to take it away we don’t allow outside wood in the park. I responded very politely. Sorry I didn’t know that coming here.
Then he goes off lecturing us about making up our own rules.

Changes the garbage bag throws it in the back of his gator then goes back to lecturing us again about ruining his lively hood with invasive insects . I said look man. My wife booked the site I didn’t know you had a rule about wood. This stuff is local wood from ten min down the road, sorry But we know for next time (as my wife and I as already talked about coming back and bringing her parents because they love canoeing and it’s a perfect place to base camp for canoeing the saugeen river) He responds by basically calling me a liar Dropped a curse in front of my kids and said “it’s fine cuz there damn well won’t be a next time” and then storms off.


So I guess I need to find another place to camp next time we want to come to this area.

This is 100% correct. Milk in the states is free reign for that stuff though, so we end up seeing a lot of news about it resulting in people who don't do two seconds of research thinking it is true of Canadian dairy too.

Totally different genre of ride. This things uber low KMs (32,xxx) and all original where it counts, and choice mods where it matters. Would run circle around a Cobra on a race track, and you would look great doing it. Cobra's a great car to have and cruise, this thing can get used and excel.

Also I know someone who went to school for HR they took psych courses at the same time “so they can better analyze potential hires as a good fit for the company”

[92redragtop]

I hate these little "talent management" HR **** bitches! They are idiotic little pieces of shit with zero knowledge with only the ability to suck dick. These are the morons stopping my resume from getting to the hiring managers and due to their lack of skillset and judgement, I get fucked over. Yeah I don't have University but my years experience is worth something... Can't wait to finish my masters so I can finally check that box. Even with multiple project management designations, I still can't get passed those little pieces of shit.

And don't get me started with the one at my current role... it just got promoted. Holy fuck is HR such a stupid invention.

I was told by a business owner once that the bottom management position I possessed was as far as I was going to go without a university degree - next day I quit and went out alone same as he did when he gloats about how he started his company - I guess if I had a degree I'd be a better gloater (new word I think - look it up) lol - I need that fire power in my pencil lead again.

I've worked with many people, ran large teams. Ranges in cultures, education, age, etc... I really don't give a rats ass about education for most roles under my purview. I'd hire a highschool dropout that studies every night to stay current with technology for a dev. I've had some very educated employees that I had to fire and makes me wonder how they passed their courses?

I thought, why would I get a university degree in computer science? Shit changes fast, education isn't going to make someone more valuable to a business.

My oldest daughter went to university and finished highest in her class -/study English - she was always a smart kid have no idea where it came from - I use to think the same way about school and understand fully where your coming from when you have an educate person who does t perform (/)this is common in everything's ng) - watching university developed her mind and how she thinks/and processes with an open mind, really impressed me and I personally have learned a few things from her. This obviously won't be the same for everyone. She is very successful now and I can see how her street smarts ,degree , and her built in drive shaped her into the person she is today. I have six kids the remaining five will likely never go to university I think its important as a parent to evaluate and understand that an to help them maybe see a more suited direction - it's only my gamer that I'm worried about!

although I do agree with some of this...I think you're missing the point regarding a college/university degree, as it's not "all" about learning the relevant content, it's a road map to help you get to a planned or maybe unplanned destination, with many routes to get there, some people get lost...some people follow a planned route to a T. some create their own path with the tools they've been shown/developed along the way, it's about learning how to obtain the knowledge you need to succeed in a pursued field or any field for that matter...continuing education is just a given in any field as things are always changing. That's why some places will still hire an individual with a diploma or degree in a totally different field...but it still shows they are willing to learn and follow through. This of course depends on the individual, sometimes it works out and sometimes not. But this can be said about anyone, regardless of education

Well ya obviously but not on a daily bases. Even my uncles 2016 6 speed, he doesn’t like the way it shifts. Me personally I love my 5-6 speed manuals.

Ok tuned via chip with a flip switch.
Options, normally one position will be stock OR you can remove the chip completely.
If removing, safer to disconnect battery n wait a few minutes first.

Thanks Rick. No problem other than it's very thirsty...just things running through my head, lol.

Driven realistically, a 2V GT is very good on fuel. Keep in mind, fuel tank is not very large, record mileage / fuel used and calculate.
What mods does it have?
Back in the day on my own 2000, with stock with bolt ons, best h/p n torque running stock or aftermarket x pipe and stock cat back. Once supercharged, aftermarket cat back was a plus.

[Old Fart]

As far as I can tell the only engine mods are a BBK throttle intake and K&N cold air intake. The K&N filter is also very dirty...on my to-do list.

sadly no. not saying everyone. and im young enough to be on the edge and usually in the Millennial category. I speak from the experience of talking to people. having people angry with me because I own a business, when the only reason we could afford it was because of sacrifice. in my younger years I spend lots of time eating PB and J so I could save money for something I wanted. don't have a fancy phone plan or fast internet and have not had cable in almost 7 years.

lost friends who were jelous becasue i had money to spend after paying only 100k on a house while they maxed out what the bank would give them and had not extra cash. the excuse is alwasy the same. its never i need to save of fix my spending problems its alwasy by dick boss would not give me a raise.

Don't think that's just mellenials - I've been self employed most of my life and with that title people think you are automatic ally well off - the worst critics are clients I just ignore it now

probably true. just basing off personal experience so its a completely anecdotal opinion

I don't think the big crash in 2008 (people spending money they don't have, etc) was caused by millennials. It was the cohorts before them that caused it. If anything, they and those after them are(will) paying the price.

Well we (me) generation x er’s blame everyone except ourselves. Yes it’s the millennials, yes it’s those damn baby boomers ! Yes it’s those gen y- who I don’t even know if they exist or if that’s even a valid generation lol

probably true, but it doesn't look like anyone is learning from each others mistakes.

[DinoZ]

I’m of the opinion that the millennial generation is the luckiest generation. Look around at all those baby boomers, me for example, owning a home (Toronto prices) , cash in bank, cars, bikes, that will all go to them, my kids one day.

I was never left or given anything, boo-hoo,woah is me.

[92redragtop]

Well, the boomers, Gen x who were drivers of the past problems are back it again and are bigger cohorts combined than Millennials right now. The reports I'm seeing right now that millennials are not as bad as everyone makes them out to be as the visible behavioural/spending practices hide some key underlying differences - less consumer debt (spending of crappy shit; less borrowing for cars) while their debt is weighted more to higher education (ie. student loans), similar or higher savings rate than previous generations (although they're behind on absolute balances because of higher tuition/student debt), and now they're a key driver in real estate in major markets as they're buying urban/suburban real estate like their parents did before.

I've had a lot of them work for me in the past few years and the only puzzling thing I've run into is that they didn't really want overtime and chose to keep after-hours/weekends as personal time (whereas I think my Gen X peers took extra hours or whatever we could get early in our careers but then I think we went out and bought "stuff" with the earnings that Millennials are not buying at the same rate). This is obviously based generalized observations.

I don't know about that - yes there will be a large wealth transfer to Gen X and Millennials but a lot of boomers are relying on home equity versus savings for retirement, and carrying consumer/mortgage/car debt into retirement.....plus living longer so will need the money to avoid living on cat food. I don't think the "net wealth" numbers are as high as "visible lifestyles" would indicate unless there are a ton more "millionaire next door" types than we think.

[mavrrrick]

I like cat food!! Lol. JK

Cat food? Maybe with some fried onions, liver and a nice bottle of Chianti

[RedSN]

Seriously, the food we get for our cats.... I could make a chicken salad sandwich out of it and it wouldn’t be half bad.

Pretty sure my great grandfather ate dog food - lived alone almost as long as I can remember with his dog Mickey - I'm sure was named after the bottle - lived out in the boonies like a true secluce and always had home made Saki bubbling in his room In old clay crocks (not the shoes). Never any food in the house except dog food and spam, sugar, rice, raisins, and red rose tea - Mickey would fetch the can from the pantry on his own when it was time to eat...true story of old Canadiana no plumbing - out house (two seater)

[Scrape]

Ouch. I read the whole thread to make sure what I read was right. Sucks that they didn’t catch it the first time. Glad she was persistent in getting it rechecked. Glad to hear she is on the mend. LOL at the butter cakes comment though.
So 2 weeks ago, my daughter asked me to take her to emergency. 5 hrs and X-rays later they said it’s nothing but just Incase booked a follow up.

Well apparently she broke her elbow in two places. I feel guilty lol- I dismissed it- often thinking toughen up butter cakes.( she fell doing some yoga moves on a mat on top of carpet)
Guess I have a “ miss glass” in the family

Her dog was very persistent asking for human food...I mean really persistent. Best friend grabbed a piece of dog food and chewed it (from the bag itself). Looked at me and said " No wonder the dog wants human food, this stuff tastes like ass."

Smells like crap too. Sadly dog had to be put down couple years back due to cancer. Cute golden retriever and very loving. Such is life.

Speaking of surf , took a drive (cuz Rav4 is not a cruise) to Saugeen Shores area , nice little port towns , ended up having lunch in South Hampton @ this fishnchips place , very good food !

Next time I go I hope to be in cruise mode :)

generalizations based on age cohort are no different than any other ism, feminism, ageism etc. Attributing a behavior based on an age grouping is a form of identity politics.

I could softly agree if ideologies or experiences were identical, otherwise such a sweeping generalization is worthless.Had to add that perhaps today's millenials opt out of OT because pay makes it not worth the sweat and blood. Pay hasn't moved with inflation for decades...and housing just went Vancouver styles in the GTA. So a regular Joe with an ok paying job would have to work without barely any sleep and it would not be worth the extra $ nor would they be able to save enough.

Hard to score decent jobs with benefits and good pay to boot. Gotta keep moving forward and maybe some can land that $$ job.

It's of limited value both ways hence I qualified my response on the flipside.

These folks are in their mid-20's approx. and are getting paid +$60K annually plus bonus and good benefits for a 37.5 hour week where you can work from home some days (health, dental, vision, tuition). Plus we have free coffee, volunteer days off, personal days for appointments and stuff, pool and ping pong tables, hockey tables. I think that's ok compensation (non-union)? The ones we're more likely to promote are the ones asking to do more versus signing out at 5pm (all things being equal).

Finance/Credit/Risk Management. We look for Finance/Accounting degrees or CFA, etc. Some have MBAs but they tend to be older and comps would be closer to $100K or higher. This is for non-management roles.
