    It’s ridiculous how acceptable people think it is.

    I have someone I work with that seems to think the faster he goes the more important and busy he is, therefore he can treat everyone else on the road that follows the rules like they are just retired old geezers with nothing better to do.

    It’s infuriating. There is nothing I hate more than people with no patience or ability to plan ahead and leave at appropriate times.

    When I think of older men having kids I mostly think of how unfortunate it is for the kid.

    By the time your kid is 20 his dad will be 72, which would me like, on average he might get 5 more years of having a dad. If he’s lucky maybe 10-15.

    Sorry to be macabre but it is something to consider.



  • Usually delivery and eating out ends up being much more expensive in the long run than cooking at home where you can buy things in bulk when on sale and store Ina fridge or freezer until you need it, but you need the space to store a lot of food which many apartments don’t have.













  • He takes us to a creek downhill from a new construction site for a data centre being built by US firm Quality Technology Services (QTS).

    George Dietz, a local volunteer, scoops up a sample of the water into a clear plastic bag. It’s cloudy and brown.

    Well, maybe they didn’t have proper sediment control but a creek is a lot different than well water. Most people don’t drink out of creeks, sediment control is done more for the purpose of protecting fish habitat.

    Hauls buckets of water to flush her toilet

    What? You’re concern is sediment in your well water and then go haul dirty brown sediment filled water from the creek to flush your toilet instead?

    Buy a sediment filter for your well water. Even people not beside giant data centres should have one just because it keeps the system functional and running better. It is practically a requirement to have one.
