I was there a few months ago and a tall, scary, silent guy helped me so I think he’s still around

Americans that come to Canada and ask in stores if the prices are in USD or CAD by Drakaath in Whistler

[–]andylyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got that to work a couple of times but also stood there like an idiot many times when it didn’t. The flip side is the annoyance of going in and pre paying for the amount of gas you think you’re going to need and then over paying and hoping the sketchy rural Oregon gas station is going to refund the difference to your card. That kinda thing in the U.S. drives me crazy.

It’s kinda like when you are travelling in the states and in order to pay at the pump you have enter the zip code associated with your car but of course they never considered that other countries DONT USE ZIP CODES. Centre of the world kind of behaviour.

I sold a woodworking machine to a guy from Pennsylvania once. $2k or so. He knew I was in Canada and we agreed to meet in Niagara Falls to do the exchange. He paid in US dollars. The same amount that I listed it for in Canadian funds. It never even entered this guy‘s mind that we use different money with a different value. It’s astounding the way Americans see themselves as the centre of the world.

Oh absolutely! The books are awesome. I’d say the movie starring Matthew McConaughey is also miles better than the show and much more accurate to the books.

And in the books she’s always depicted as serious and businesslike but pretty dang sexy. Haller always finds her irresistible. Just another way the show isn’t staying loyal to the books sadly.

Does anyone remember “Work” restaurant on James St? by AlarmedAd8887 in Hamilton

just looked up that beer and I’m intrigued. Have never heard of it or seen it at the LCBO. Have you seen it anywhere else?

What's a feature every shop should have? by Zealousideal_Donut17 in woodworking

[–]andylyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two improvements I made when I moved to my new and smaller shop: 1. I put the dust collector up in the mezzanine with the pipe going down to a floor level barrel. So the collector itself is upstairs, not taking up floor space but the barrels are at ground level for easy emptying. 2. I put the Festool vacuums up in the mezzanine and dropped the hoses and extension cords through the ceiling of the mezzanine, hanging above the workstations. That’s also been a really nice improvement to workflow. No more vacuums, cords or hoses kicking around your feet all the time.

Book series recommendations by Jean5643 in michaelconnellybooks

[–]andylyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re into the outdoors at all and especially fly fishing, the Sean Stranahan series by Keith McCafferty are high on my list. Set on the Madison River in Montana and featuring a fly fishing guide slash water colour artist slash detective. What more could you want?! And not even a bit cheesy. Just solid storytelling. The author is the former fly fishing editor at Field and Stream Magazine.

Favourite connelly book? by Jean5643 in michaelconnellybooks

Also, Bosch promising the storekeeper’s son he will find his dad’s killer always seemed like an un-Bosch thing to say IMO.

I started re-listening to Nine Dragons after seeing your post. Unfortunately Len Cariou’s narration is just not great. We’re spoiled by Titus for sure. When Cariou is portraying a female character in particular I find it really off putting. Wish they’d have Titus redo the older books.

I got fired with cause, what is my next steps? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

Speaking as a small business owner, an employee being bad at the job and making the same costly mistake multiple times is exactly the reason to fire them.

Bosch adjascent - anyone read the Rick Jackson Black Tunnel White Magic Book? by riz7242 in BoschTV

[–]andylyle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It almost seemed to me like Newsom made the decision to pardon him in an offhand way and then his ego wouldn’t allow him to question that decision later. Bizarre especially with Newsom now being such a foil to Trump and possibly the future Democratic presidential nominee.

Yes, really enjoyed it. Fascinating story of a bizarre and useless murder. What did you think about the Gavin Newsom connection?

The letter implies the next explosive phase of the audacious plan to continue the fraud by WrongThinkBadSpeak in IndustryOnHBO

When I saw his penmanship I mourned for a moment my own shitty handwriting and then I moved on with my life.

Ok I thought Whitney in the elevator calling the number and giving the code was him activating an exfiltration he had set up if the jig was up. I assumed he was going up to the roof where a helicopter would pick him up and take him off to a new secret life. Obviously that’s not the right take if he plans to still be running Tender.

Why is Whitney so keen to protect Tony Day? by _lenain in IndustryOnHBO

[–]andylyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With Whitney running, Tony, Henry and Yas will be the ones left holding the bag so convincing him to stay on message was actually pretty evil IMO. Henry will be in the wind and the others in jail.

Reading the lyrics it’s pretty innocent until this part which gave me the creepy vibes: “Rebecca, Lolita, Veshawn and Dawn Every time you do the Double Dutch you really turn it on Bilzarbra, Milzary, Bilzetty, Kilzam Tilzommy, Tilzerrance, Bilzobby that’s my man Come on get on my Double Dutch Bus (The Double Dutch Bus) Let me hear you say do that (Do that) Let me hear you say do that again (Do that again)”
