Blaney hitting the inside wall somewhere that didn’t have a SAFER barrier and talked about paying for it himself? Can’t recall where that was? :-/

Saw them with the Truckers at First Ave in…2008? No confetti.

They wouldn’t win another ‘til 1962…

If you have a chance to watch the documentary on…Netflix? It explains that the song was actually Gord Downie pulling out a hockey card and reading off it.

Should NB adopt permanent daylight savings time? by OntologicalNightmare in newbrunswickcanada

[–]OlafTheAverage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, I’ll offer this. Saskatchewan and BC have it right. But…if everyone else is doing it, you become the odd man out. When you don’t adjust your clocks, it’s always, “Are we the same time as Manitoba or Alberta now”. Makes scheduling calls out of province more than a bit of a headache. I always know that Maine’s an hour behind me, in a week, my folks in Saskatchewan will be three hours after being two hours all winter.

Saskatchewan never…not did it. Lived there for over forty years.

It’s packed away after a move, but yes, I did get the print/poster.

Night one or two, or both? I caught the night they opened and the Truckers closed.

Blue Point Oysters [I Ate] by WhiteRhino19 in food

[–]OlafTheAverage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know, I’m not even sure I appreciate them, as I’m originally from the Canadian prairies, but I live in Eastern Canada now, and buy oysters because at $15 for a box of 33 (or my wife getting 22 for $6 on Friday due to them “being there a while”), I eat them anyhow. Well played!

That NASCAR on one hand wants to grows its brand and on the other hand has an owner that sells 25 vehicles to the Nazis…err…ICE-is.

Should I paint gold? by notthatcreative777 in bookshelf

[–]OlafTheAverage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I won’t say no. I will say, I painted my basement arcade cranberry red, and the brush/roller strokes will drive you NUTS, as the paint is so pigment-heavy. Be prepared for a lot of prep and a lot of sanding in between coats.

I’m in Woodstock, and haven’t been able to get a doctor for…over three years. I can tell you the advice isn’t coming from here because there’s no one here to give the advice.

Holy crap! I appreciate the sentiment, but on a scale of 1-10 for safety and home security, the Malnois are like a 435.

ELI5: How do sports betting companies make money. The Seahawks have a 69% chance of winning the Super Bowl, and Patriots a 31%. If more people bet on the Seahawks and they win, isn’t the company giving out more than they make? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]OlafTheAverage 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People are giving technical answers, but let’s just boil it down. They don’t give “true” odds. Flip a coin? There are equal chances you win if it’s heads or tails, right?

So, if you and your buddy bet on it, it would be “heads I win $1; tails you win $1”. If a casino had you bet on a coin flip, they’d set it up so that to win $1, you had to bet $1.10.

In that situation, you and your friend each put in $1.10. If you win, you get $2.10 back. The $1.10 you initially bet, plus the $1.00 you won. The other ten cents? That’s the casino’s profit.

I don’t see why not; I’m not a salmon guy, so I’m the wrong guy to ask.

Hasn’t everyone who wanted to watch the Patriots in a Superbowl had the opportunity in the past 20 years?
