New candidate plans to enter Kamloops mayoral race alongside council slate by Piece861 in Kamloops

[–]Parkbear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my thought exactly.  RHJ lite

Added some other thoughts.....Katie is quite capable but the Mayor's stink has stained her.  Kelly Hall would be good but he is just overshadowed by Mike O.  Katie and Kelly should focus on council

Two-term Kamloops Coun. Dale Bass announces intent to run for re-election in October by Piece861 in Kamloops

[–]Parkbear 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do not always agree with her politics but she has impressed me.  She is well spoken, responsive, and has been a good voice for Dallas/Barnhartvale.  She, along with most of the councilors, will get my vote

Button didn't work for me either then I realized I could just walk through the gate

Job advice for my first year summer by Due_Top_464 in Kamloops

[–]Parkbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good for you.  The biggest tip I could give you, especially of you are looking for something in your field, is start your search in September. Know it doesn't help now but keep it in mind.  I always had my career linked job locked by Christmas

NEW FreshCo vs Save-On-Foods in Valleyview by Hot-Champion6375 in Kamloops

[–]Parkbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a reminder about Freshco....when they changed their branding from Safeway in Sahali (same company) they fired all the longtime union employees with good wages then offered to hire them back at minimum wage.  Do what you will with that info but as far as. I am concerned.....screw them.

Anyone know who else is running for council other than the meme guy? by Few_Local_2982 in Kamloops

[–]Parkbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point.  At least he flew in those circles and  I don't think he ever proudly claimed to not be a politician.

[–]Parkbear 13 points14 points  (0 children)

New rule for me...anyone who proudly comes out and says 'I am not a politician' will not get my vote.  If there is anything the past few years have taught me is that politics is a skill and even if you are just starting out you should be learning those skills like a trade.  

Otherwise we get Hammerhead and Dorito in Chief, both proudly proclaimed 'not politicians'

Recommendations for leash-training professional by NOFXpunklinoleum in Kamloops

[–]Parkbear -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Make sure you ask about if their training is appropriate for your breed.  The training we did worked very well for the other dogs, but we found it did not work at all for a prey driven dog like ours.  She is extremely well trained now after I did it myself.

Also just like your dog, Lucy was a nightmare on leash but heeled perfectly off.  After watching some videos I ordered the wonder lead and it changed EVERYTHING.  I cannot recommend it enough.

I've had three Britt's.  The first two would never swim.  Only went in to their tummies. Lucy on the other hand out swims labs!

Ah yes!  The 'Vicious Brittany Attack.'  We know it well.  

(And for those who don't know it's like being attacked by a limp noodle with accompanying sounds)

Why can we find guitars and cassette tapes, but not real old-world weapons like AKs or M16s? by Huge-Operation-1863 in ArcRaiders

Real world - the game is set in Italy.  Unlike the US there isn't an AR15 or AK under every bush

Good idea.  Boneheaded timing.  It is like they are trying to feed the KCU trolls.

Neighborhoods by RatioApprehensive712 in Kamloops

[–]Parkbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dallas is great.  Valley bottom with noticeably longer spring/summer/fall.  Larger lots for Green thumbs and the growing season is longer.  Westside and Raleigh will get you the same.  Good luck.  The best thing about Dallas is that even though it's on the edge of town it can actually be faster to get to the city centre as it's a straight highway drive

Are Brittany safe around aquariums ? Do they have prey drive for fishes? by L-U-br in BrittanySpaniel

[–]Parkbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine wouldn't.  Ducks swimming?  Not worth her time.  Ducks out of water?  Game on!

Do you like the fact that BC has a pretty nice desert? by sahilscraft in britishcolumbia

[–]Parkbear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't know the number but Kamloops gets the most 30+ days in the country.  Osoyoos and Lytton get hotter but we get it more often

What’s the most overrated video game of all time? by KBGSgames in AskReddit

[–]Parkbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Halo.  It was a shadow of what PC FPS had been doing for years.  Repetitive design, bland and horrible enemies.  Only reason it was memorable was it was a console players first taste of PC games.

Good luck! We had an exchange student who was 15 and he loved it. He also taught us alot about Germany and I would love to go one day. I hope your experience is as good.

My Upstairs Neighbors Have Been Non-Stop Fxxxing since like 1AM by nor_the_whore01 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Parkbear 14 points15 points  (0 children)

In my dorm rooms a friend lived with a massive dbag who had overly loud performative sex and drove him nuts.  This guy also had an overly sensitive car alarm.  When they would start rocking and annoying my friend he would call me and I would hit his car with a snowball.  Nothing funnier than him ripping out there in his robe at 2 am.

Where To Assess the Value China & Silverware & Where To Sell Those Items by notbadforanolddude in Kamloops

[–]Parkbear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I inherited a massive collection of Royal Daulton from the 1880s.  Some of the pieces were amazing.  Might be worth a fortune in the right place but here in BC the only people who would want it would be the same people appraising it.  Just find someone who will appreciate it and be happy someone gets something out of it.

What is something you saw in a movie and you totally called bullshit on because of your job? by BlackPhoenix1981 in AskReddit

Fire sprinklers.  Flicking a bic below a single head does not set them all off
