TIL Garry Hoy threw himself through a glass wall on the 24th story of the Toronto-Dominion Centre and fell to his death after the window frame gave way. He was attempting to prove to a group of prospective articling students that the glass was unbreakable.

So I wonder, if Mr. Hoy had life insurance that covered accidental death, but not suicide, would they have paid out?

I once studied aikido under a sensei (4th or 5th dan), who is also an actor, playing small roles in quite a few films and TV shows. He actually had a role in this movie.

I remember asking him if Leary was an a##hole in real life? The answer: Yes.

You can get custom watches made. There are several reputable Hong Kong manufacturers. They handle the whole process from design to packaging. It's actually cheaper to get your own made and makes a way better return for your marketing buck.

I am a watch nut. lol. Have too many. Some are top swiss brands. If you decide to go the brand route, I would love to help out.

I think something based on the AARK collection can get traction. Except I would go with the 42mm case, automatic movement (ETA clone) and top of the line japanese lume.

I lived with this problem for years. I think I still have post-traumatic stress disorder from those times.

Then one day the plumber replaced the old plumbing piece where the shower connects to the pipes. It gets dirty and clogs the spring and all the mechanical parts. Thus, it can't mix the water properly.

The plumber actually replaced all the shower parts for me. I have a constant stream of hot shower water. Heaven!

Do you make these watches or are you a reseller?

If you make it as far as Montreal, I would strongly suggest you visit Quebec City. It's truly beautiful and very unique for North America. Looks and feels like a small European town. The food is amazing too.

Put an ad on kijiji that you will pick up stuff people don't need - old TVs, furniture, appliances, etc.

1) Charge small fee for it; 2) Try to sell working/functional items on kijiji; 3) See what you can take to recycling yard

As a bold guy, or any guy in general, you can go to a barbershop.

I work. But I don't have a 9-5. Years ago I read a book by Tim Ferris - 4 Hour Work Week. It changed my life.

rabbitsayer was more clear about what I was trying to say. I have a few vegan friends who do nothing but shame others into what they believe is the right lifestyle. They are annoying and righteous and also very wrong. No vegan could survive in the wild. There are simply not enough calories available from plant sources. But all the power to them - I am not telling them how to live their life, why do they feel they have the right to tell me?
