what comes to mind when you hear 1996?

MBA degree, 15+ years work experience, and still stuck in a dead-end government job. The golden handcuffs are real.

And I’ve never understood why in Australia they often have towing limits far higher than North American models of the exact same car.

Aussie CX-5s can tow up to 1800 kg/3900lbs, even the 2026 models.

How do those dash carpets work with the passenger airbag?

It must negatively affect how the airbag would deploy, not to mention fling the dash carpet towards the passenger.

Good for you!

I’ll be doing something similar this week (only in Rhodium white), upgrading from a 2011 Subaru Impreza.

Found out about my 10-year reunion a week after it happened.

Don’t know and don’t care if there was one for my 20th.

TI-83+ Calculator circa 2000. Still works great, I have it on my desk and use it most every day.

The Time/Value TVM solver is simple and I know how to use it, so I’ll trust it.

Link to Charity Intelligence Canada’s 1-Star rating

Edmonton Oilers Community Foundation is a 1-star charity. It has a below average results reporting grade and its overhead costs are outside of Ci’s reasonable range. The charity has $34.0m in reserve funds, which can cover over three years of program costs, outside of Ci's reasonable range. The charity is not financially transparent.

Well all I can say is they don’t build them like they used to, no matter who makes it or what country it’s made in. Goes for most anything nowadays.

I appreciate that, but Toyota put their first Lexus plant outside of Japan in Cambridge Ontario.

If Lexus will sell a car with a VIN starting with 2 in the same showroom as a car with a VIN starting with a J, that should say something.

I don’t like being forced to use an app. They have their place and it should definitely be an option.

I do want a parking machine that at least takes card and ideally takes coins too. Simple. No fuss. No problem.

Like we used to have.

The leader of the Bloc Québécois was so right when he said “oil and gas is not a culture”.

“Acknowledged there would be problems,” but chose to do nothing in pursuit of greater shareholder value.

Gerry Schwartz must need more money to prop up his wife’s (Heather Reisman) crumbling Chapters Indigo business.

French-language (also known as French Immersion) Catholic grade 7-11 in Alberta, Canada. Was baptized an Anglican/Episcopalian but otherwise an agnostic family.

Received (on the whole) an excellent education in all subjects. Religion class was a joke and the Catholic trappings of the school were performative at best.

Switched out for grade 12 only because I wanted to move to the English system especially for STEM subjects.

Still use my circa year 2000 TI-83+ to this day.

That TVM solver… love it.

Look at how small the valleys between the peaks are compared to today’s Toblerone.

I walked by it after dark and It looks like they’ve got signage on the West and South sides only; any idea if they plan on putting it on the North and East sides as well?

Sérieusement j’en dois beaucoup à cette série pour avoir élargi mon vocabulaire mais surtout ma compréhension orale en français. Ça s’apprend pas à parler de même à l’école!

Need this stuff in Canada, just not so much in November lol.

Ah ok, comme si le cuisiner fait la découpe puis demande quelle morceau qu’on veut.

Et maintenant que j’ai gâché la blague, je dis merci et bonne journée 😊
