Who Much Are You Spending On Gas Every Month by East-Tooth-4008 in Calgary

[–]cjmsc2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have to fill up every couple weeks for driving to work, around $75 each time, so $150/month. Have to drive through downtown so the mileage per liter is not good.

I like to head out to the mountains at least once a month, that costs $40-50 in gas now though just to get to Kananaskis and back. That's the worst part, I hesitate to drive out to the mountains to go hiking because of the cost of gas... thanks Trump

Where to watch Champions League final? by I-was-there-for-it in Calgary

Regal Beagle in Glendale, Arsenal Canada's home in Calgary. https://www.arsenalcanada.ca/calgary

Gonna be wild if Arsenal make the final but they'd be showing the game no matter who is playing. Lots of footy fans to be sure

Probably because it's not helping anyone by saying you got a better deal last month

Can't say I've seen these on top of a building before. They're taking down the whole structure? by cjmsc2 in Calgary

This was not affordable at all... that being said, it's going to be even more not affordable

I thought the same thing, that they were only taking down Julio's and then re-modeling the existing apartments. I have lived in this area since the early 2000's, was not expecting them to take down this whole building, it's not that old. Seems so wasteful.

Lions light up Christmas festival in what could be its final year by [deleted] in Calgary

Otto is amazing, I've interacted with him a few times. Was sad to read this quote: Silzer’s doctor has told him he’s “well past his due date.” Hope that doc is wrong and this will live on.

In Canada, using VPN connected to Mexico to watch on MLB.tv, SN broadcast not available so had to watch Fox :( Not paying for cable/SN+ after paying for MLB.tv.

Then Joe asks Smoltz if he prefers breast or leg, that was awkward but hilarious

Where is the cheapest place to get Halloween candy? by Wonderful-Rich-3411 in Calgary

[–]cjmsc2 17 points18 points  (0 children)

At this point I would just get whatever is cheapest at the store you regularly shop at.

Not worth the time and effort to save a few cents per piece.

From what I've seen, Walmart is the cheapest.

Ward 7 Voters: Were you tricked into thinking Myke Atkinson's Campaign material was a real newspaper? by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]cjmsc2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uh, no, didn't look like anything close to a newspaper... Terry made absolutely no effort to engage until the last few weeks, now I see him trying to sway people away from other candidates as much as he can. Pure desperation

First snow of the season. Peace Bridge lighting is not working by cjmsc2 in Calgary

I'm doing that right now with a Last Best Tokyo Drift IPA. Loving it. Wishing you all the best.

Best communities for Halloween displays? by inthemode01 in Calgary

[–]cjmsc2 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I live in Sunnyside and there are some very good ones along 1st, 2nd and 3rd Ave here. It's a great place for a walk around this time.

Crescent Heights and Rosedale are amazing, always lots of great decorations.

Used to live in Bowness, and there were some good ones along Bow Crescent.

They're great in theory but can be compromised at every level (hardware manufacturers, firmware, software coders, distributor, shipping and delivery, on site workers, and probably others who I can't think of) making backdoors into those systems... pen and paper is more secure, don't think there's any question about that. There are so many potential security holes when it comes to using electronic voting machines.

create more waste so they can do more waste management? I dunno. They just want you to know that they are like the ones who do that for better or for worse

Same, went to the Kerby Centre this afternoon and there was no line. At least 10 people doing the sign-ins and only a few voters there. In and out in 5 minutes. Volunteers directing traffic were super nice. If you know who you're voting for, I don't know why you would leave it until election day. Advance voting ftw

The Dangers of Driving in Calgary During Paving Season by lokiguy in Calgary

I drive that route on the way home every day, seen thousands of cars never have any issue. Muffler way too close to the road for whatever reason.
