One of my buddies had an '87 GN which he used to drag race...had all kinds of head/turbo/trans work done. Even ran a plastic bumper. I don't recall the numbers he was running but, it was quick. The other had an '89 Anni Trans Am with the Turbo V6. It was running 11.20's. The Buick guys were pissed that GM allowed Pontiac to use their beloved turbo sixer in the TA.

So yesterday I decided I wanted to get a book at Chapters at Hwy 7 and Weston road. I walk in with my face covering. Girl at the front stops me. Says my face covering isn’t acceptable and hands me the typical blue toilet paper we seem to deem acceptable. I politely ask why, she says “ it doesn’t filter”. I thought to myself, neither do face shields but they’re acceptable. She was extremely blonde so I didn’t bother arguing with her and proceeded to put the charmin ultra 1 ply toilet paper on my face like a good Canadian.

Looking for my book, 30 minutes pass and I can’t find this damn book anywhere. I’m still looking and all of a sudden I get smacked, I look down and I see not 1 but 2 Doberman’s running around in the store with 2 young woman chasing them. I’m not allowed to where my face covering but dogs are allowed to run free in the store. ( hope they shit on the carpet).

I get fed up and finally ask the blonde doorknob for some help. She scans the book and proceeds to tell me it’s only available online. I’m now irritated beyond belief at this point, I drove down there to get my book only to be told my mask which I don’t even agree with or want to wear isn’t correct, then get hit by dogs running in a book store. As I’m leaving the store I notice the once busy plaza now only has 3 stores in business there. This stupidity is driving me crazy, I’ve had enough. End rant.

Seems silly then for the employee to ask you to switch - poor training.

Yes, that plaza and the one across the street has had issues for the past few years with stores closing (even on the northeast side of Hwy 7 and Weston as well - behind the new building). Perhaps the area was over-retailed like in the US where a lot of outdoor malls have been emptying out over the last several years. That's certainly accelerated with the pandemic restrictions and the rapid shift to online/mobile commerce (the 2028-2030 target moved up 10 years).

Starting mattress shopping soon - not looking forward to that. Many of the retail brands are owned by the same one or two companies and manufacturing is setup to benefit them not the consumer (even the $3K plus ones don't hold up that long). So far looks like I should steer away from memory foam and try to find old school coils (but even there they changed the terminology so they can market now with less coils than before). Ugh.....

I thought I needed a new mattress as I was getting back pains. Turns out I was too fat. Once I lost weight I slept fine lol.

But I did go to Sleep Country once on Queen and Airport and the salesman was super helpful with mattress selection. Had us test different mattresses with different pillows.

I did that 7 years ago. I ended up getting another foam mattress but I was suckered into getting one with memory foam. That was a mistake. And yes I agree with xen on Sleep County as a good starting point. Like I said I was suckered in by that memory foam.

Previous couple of mattresses, bought higher end, don't feel they lasted a day longer vs something costing far less.
Current mattress was purchased during last spring lock down without being able to test, arrived defective out of the wrapper ( substantial wrinkles sewn into the top cover), zero zero nada after sales support from the vendor NATIONAL MATTRESS. Person responsible for any warranty / delivery or any other kind of issue graced me with a call back after 3 weeks of leaving messages. Unable (make that unwilling) to do anything beyond be a condescending prick because we had already used it for that time period. Slept on the coach for first two nights then another couple with it still in plastic wrapper hoping they'd call and make things right.
Never once had an issue with Sleep Country purchases, only bought elsewhere because of delayed delivery times from them.

Last king size mattress (the one we're replacing) was from Sleep Country and we weren't happy with it - sagged on both sides (not fat..lol) and higher in the middle early in warranty period. Rep came to check and said it didn't meet the threshold (2 inches or something like that) for warranty claim and they refused to do anything (would sink if you were in it for a while but someone inspecting it at midday with no one on it wouldn't see the issue). I think that was mainly a manufacturer issue though.

From what I've read, staying away from foam mattresses and trying to find old school coil mattress with high coil count - and at least with minimal memory foam in the pillow-top section if we can find it as that seems to be one of the cheap bells and whistle they use now to up the price/cut back on coils, but that doesn't have durability. In the US they seem to have options to order custom made (where you can ask not to have memory foam, etc, etc) from small manufacturers but I'm not sure we have that option this side of the border in a small market.

Yeah, from the complaints I see online, very little is warrantied and the fact that most of the industry is fairly consolidated (although many brands/models) make it worse (or easier to get away with).

Price will rise abruptly depending on what your doing, perf cams on a 4v build = 2k +. I'm also going with all new chains, guides, tensioners, lash adjusters, followers etc replaced on top of valve seats , couple new valves and heads machined. Bottom end needs nothing but doing oil pump as matter of maint. If it had been hurt, would have moved the rotating assembly over to the Teksid block I've had tucked away downstairs. While it would have been cool to take that much wt off nose of the car, could not justify replacing a mint short for another one the same but only lighter.

I had the same thought while I was at a local grocery on the weekend - people standing in the middle of the walkway/aisle even though they're not being served (waiting for their number to be called to the meat/deli counter). The area is a main throughway to the other side of the store so you'd think they have the situational awareness to stand back until they are called/being served versus having people walking through navigating around them.

I was pricing out 500 hp on a 302 iron block bottom to top with machine work I figured it may be around 11,000 maybe close to 15,000 if I add a four bolt main 302 block (no boost)- for about 15,ooo I think you can purchase a new coyote and harness but then need some fabrication....I don't think there's a cheap way to make hp....they got ya either way!

I just wanted my internals forged. But I’m damned I suppose. I’m not a mechanic so I can’t save any money there. Short term goal is to get a KB and replace the VORTECH

forged is good but if your intention is to make more power (500 range +) may probably upgrade the crank and pistons and have the rolling assemble balanced...if you can fab a little cheapest way maybe to chance a wreckers coyote...even doing as much as you can yourself its still not cheap - if the goal is to maintain stock numbers that's probably the cheapest to go you need to kinda have a goal as to what needs to be achieved - good luck buddy!

Went north on 27 from Rutherford. Spotted a Mclaren, DeLorean, Lamborghinis, some parked old muscle cars, Corvette, Ferrari, Rolls Royce and a Grand National. Went up all the way to New Tecumseth, crossed over to 50 by way of sixth line. Slowed down for a couple of turkeys crossing the road. They didn’t even use the crosswalk. Turkeys are assholes.

Disagree. There's blowing off steam and then there's being ignorant, stupid, selfish, attention deprived and destructive. Blowing off steam can be wrenching in the garage, detailing you car, going for a nice drive with the music on and windows down, etc. There's all manner of things you can do short of whipping shitties in the middle of a public intersection and lighting it on fire. I truly HATE that these people get labeled as "car enthusiasts" because in my opinion they're nothing more than arrogant show offs who are more interested in the attention and clout their cars bring them not the hobby themselves. There's good attention you can get with a modified car, and there is bad. Unfortunately some will take all the attention it brings them even if it means risking the hobby for the majority.

I understand your point. But I meant it as in this is the way the new generation pushes back. They gather and they disrespect. My point is they’re going to get worse in time. The city comes out of lockdown for 5 minutes and number triple by miracle. It’s all bullshit to force people into getting this bullshit vaccine. So now we’re seeing people act stupid, I didn’t say what they did was right, I’m saying prepare yourself we haven’t seen anything yet.

Copy n paste, seems pretty clear, stay at home means stay at home.

The province has enacted another stay-at-home order (https://www.cp24.com/news/ontario-issues-another-stay-at-home-order-will-only-permit-in-person-shopping-at-grocers-and-pharmacies-1.5377393) as Ontario faces a third wave mainly driven by more transmissible and more deadly COVID-19 variants.
The order comes into effect on Thursday, April 8 and will last for at least four weeks.
It says people cannot leave home, except for about nearly 30 essential reasons:

<iframe name="fsk_frame_splitbox" id="fsk_frame_splitbox" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" webkitallowfullscreen="" mozallowfullscreen="" allow="autoplay" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border-width: initial; border-style: none; outline: 0px; font-size: 28.8px; line-height: 1.6; vertical-align: baseline; width: 603px; height: 0px;"></iframe>

You must not leave home, except:


To go to work or volunteer. The work role must be considered “essential.” Per the terms of the order, employers get to decide if a job is essential or not.
To go to school (some school boards have closed for in-person learning)
Attending, obtaining or providing child-care.
Receiving or providing training or educational services.”

To buy things:


Purchasing “food, beverage and personal care items.”
Obtaining healthcare items and medication
Buying goods or services that are “necessary for landscaping, garderning and the safe operation, maintenance and sanitation of households, businesses, means of transportation or other places.”
Buying or attending an appointment at any business allowed to be open, including for curbside pickup.
Attending a financial institution.
Receiving any government service including healthcare or mental health assistance.

Helping others:


Delivering goods or providing care to anyone in a congregate care setting or receiving goods or support.
Accompanying someone else outside who requires assistance to travel.
Transporting a child to their parent or guardian’s home.
Transporting a member of one’s household “to any place the member of the household is permitted to go under this Order.”

To protect oneself:


From domestic violence
Assisting someone living in unsafe conditions
Seeking help in an emergency situation
Attending a court or other location for the administration of justice

To exercise, including:


“walking or moving around outdoors using an assistive mobility device”
using an outdoor recreational amenity permitted to be open.

Indigenous rights:


All activities protected under Aboriginal treaty as defined by the Constitution Act of 1982.

Moving and travelling:


Travelling is permitted to another location if the person intends to stay there less than 24 hours and is doing so for one of the other purposes set out in the order.
Otherwise, travelling to another residence is only allowed if an individual intends to stay there for at least 14 days.
Travelling between homes of parents, guardians or caregivers in order to safeguard someone under their care.
“Making arrangements to buy or sell a residence or to begin or end a residential lease.”
Moving
Going to the airport, train or bus station, “for the purpose of travelling to a destination that is outside of the Province.

Gathering:


If one lives alone, with the members of one additional household.
For a wedding, funeral or religious service that is permitted by law or making necessary arrangements for the purpose of such a gathering

Pretty bad too on a 2006-2011 Civic/CSX with a K series motor. Have to take the cowl off then the reinforcement bracket to get the valve cover off. Even then you have angle it to remove it. Spark plugs were a pain. Changing the header was a pain as it’s at the back of the motor and you can’t see much.

I gave up, was getting pissed off. Feel like I'm gonna have to drop a motor mount to remove a fucking valve cover...

Been too long since I had a 2v off to remember but on 4v tons easier (ok make that only possible) if you remove master cyl n hydro boost (push master off to the side).

anyone familiar code requirements for framing? just waiting on permits of the new "garage" then we start building, doing it myself with dads help to save money because the material cost is insane right now

with my un resolved CT my hand get very numb and then sore after only a short time swinging a hammer. Im looking at renting or buying a power nailer. but dad is saying that framing needs to be done with ardox nail and has to be done by hand. (im not sure he is correct since i see ALOT of pros using power nailers anymore.

just want to be sure before i drop the money on a nailer.

You can get a framing nailer. I think they have a circular magazine that you load up with the nails.

Nails have to be code, how they get in the framing isn't dictated by OBC. You could hammer them in with your boot and provided you have the right quantity, type, size and length it would pass inspection. I think some areas don't like clipped head nails so check that, but fuck if framing nailers don't meet code no stick frame construction site I've been on in the past, forever, has met code.

I sold mine nailer just last year on kijiji. Take a look at KIJIJI may be for sale in London, Kitchener area or try TO area. Great guys down there wink, wink plus extra wink.
Some good quality stuff is sold by guys like you after one or two odd jobs around the house. Sell after wifey projects are done and she is "happy".
You don't need " pro" stuff unless your going to be a framing contractor every day
You need to budget for a pancake style of compressor and extra long hoses.
Note: Look into the new Milwaukee nailers no hose or compressor, just get a extra battery.
I just got the new M12 1/4" compact impact wrench #2555 and it's big brother#2767.
I cannot say how "happy I am with these two tools".
New stuff beats the living manure out of old air tools and same for drills/drivers.
PS NOT A PAID AD just a happy guy - tool wise!

Was just guessing size based on the last few I've built. It's insane, so many people wanting to get exterior projects done right now but the cost is unjustifiable in many cases (like you learned). Composite has sneakily increased as well due to "higher demand" but I think that's BS and it's because they saw PT increase so figured they could jack their prices to match the increase.

Yeah it’s pretty crazy. Composite is nice but I’ve seen it fail.. I dunno, I like the look of wood.

Pavers are still relatively the same price.. got a buddy that used to do it helping me.

Liberal MP caught naked during House of Commons video conference

CATHERINE LEVESQUE AND JOAN BRYDEN
OTTAWA
THE CANADIAN PRESS
PUBLISHED APRIL 14, 2021
UPDATED 2 HOURS AGO

A Liberal MP was caught wearing his birthday suit in the virtual House of Commons.

William Amos, who has represented the Quebec riding of Pontiac since 2015, appeared on the screens of his fellow members of Parliament completely naked Wednesday.

A screenshot obtained by The Canadian Press shows him standing behind a desk between the Quebec and Canadian flags, his private parts hidden by what appears to be a mobile phone in one hand.

“This was an unfortunate error,” Mr. Amos said in a statement sent by e-mail Wednesday.

“My video was accidentally turned on as I was changing into my work clothes after going for a jog. I sincerely apologize to my colleagues in the House of Commons for this unintentional distraction. Obviously, it was an honest mistake and it won’t happen again.”

You're allowed to do that as you appear to be her "caregiver"/providing assistance to a senior - the list of allowed activity is broad - the main issue is gatherings/groups of people. Of the 2 houses on our street where everyone caught COVID, everyone in both houses work outside the home and likely caught it in their workplaces (or they attended gatherings outside their household).
