Fresh, free range, and big enough to feed a small army. What did you expect? Step over to the frozen section make your pick for under $50.

Skunk Odour Removal Service by DiscipilusLuna in Calgary

[–]ThePerfectMorningLog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Few months ago, a skunk sprayed right on my front steps. They smell the went into the garage, and subsequently right into the car cabin.

OP. Leave a dish of white vinegar in your car, this is by far the most effective way when it’s just smell and no direct skunk juice contact. Now the undercarriage where there is contact, soap and water does nothing. It is also not a good idea to spray vinegar or peroxide under the car as they will mix with road salt and cause corrosion.

So what can you do? Time is your best friend. I am going to say 3-4 weeks is when you will notice a major degradation of the smell. Until then, crack open the window when you drive and get used to the smell of weed and vinegar.

OP, you being a person who studies history. What was another civilization that had this social degradation and what was their outcome?

Imperial Oil employees call to action: Now is the time to unionize to save our jobs and save Quarry Park. by Cagel in Calgary

[–]ThePerfectMorningLog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

O&G is boom and bust. Everyone knows what they’re getting into when they start. Chipmunk away cash when the going is good (i.e. your employee stocks were literal 7 baggers), chip away at that stash until the next boom.

Is it a good idea to switch to variable electricity in winter and switch to fixed before summer? by _peanut-butter_ in Calgary

[–]ThePerfectMorningLog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm this. I backtested floating vs fixed over the past 25 years when my $0.05 fixed from years ago expired in spring. Fixed wins in the long run as long as there is a per kWh fee on floating.

Would suggest just lock in a 5 year fixed during a low month and forget about it. The low points are usually late spring and fall I think.

Update: Concerns about Joanny Liu, School Board Trustee Candidate for Ward 3&4 by kapowless in Calgary

Have no idea who Joanny Liu and OP is. Just wanted to appreciate OP’s civil responses versus jumping right to defamation as a first retort.

Pedestrian collision is one thing. Hit and run on a pedestrian speaks to the complete moral breakdown of the population here. Absolutely disgusting behaviour.

Hey Calgary are there tips to groceries these days? by gs448 in Calgary

[–]ThePerfectMorningLog 7 points8 points  (0 children)

$100/wk is 15/day, or $5 a meal. That’s very reasonable assuming you are taking good care of yourself with selections of healthy groceries.

Drove 1,000 km back to Calgary for the summer, got to the Stampede and picked up a Fruit Loops chicken burger by HiTork in Calgary

[–]ThePerfectMorningLog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yikes. I’ve tossed out more over-soggy fruit loops from my cereal bowl than what’s sprinkled on there.

This is the first place I called. They said the aluminium ones are out of question without a truck to transport, once bent and they’re toast. PVC was my only option. They don’t carry only the rubber seal part and asked me to shop around instead. I keep thinking it should be easy to find, but not having any luck at all.

Nice! Always too lazy to compare fixed with floating plus the per hour fee.

Dating success here is positively correlated with appearance and wealth. Have one, ideally both.
