Julien had to have a coronary stent put in his heart, so he's gone back to Montreal for now.

^ thats a very simple procedure now. They go in through a blood vessel in your leg and pop that little sucker right into your artery. 

Relative had a stent installed...  super quick and easy.  Simple procedure now. 

I've been there. Hearing is the last thing to go, so when it's time, make sure he passes on hearing how much you love him and how valuable his existence was to everyone.

^this. Being there, together or in shifts,..and sharing memories of the best of times. Peace be with you & your grandpa.

Unfortunately it's way back cross country and we can't afford to visit before it happens. Always there in spirit though.

Planning on going anywhere?

I plan to stay in, relax and sleep in past 4am for a change, ended up working an hour of OT to end things. And I'm in construction labor @Ghostsof1915

As long as you're not laid off buddy. Enjoy the time off. Recharge the batteries. 

12yrs and she waited bro !  thats a keeper : D

Congratulations!

12 years is along time to be together so clearly both of you are getting good things out of it even if it isn't all clear skies and roses.  Assuming you already co-habitate, getting married probably won't change much day to day stuff but it's fun to have that ceremony/party at some point.

what if she says no

you are making this all about your decision

Ooohhh, my body's sayin' let's go

Ooohhh, but my heart is sayin' no

Never hurts to ask

especially if they're granted by 90's christina

^McDavid is too nice to do that, but I wouldn't hesitate.

you and me both Brad, i would just retire and call it a day

What would be epic is if they finish last and then lose the lottery!

Probably a good day to miss work, to be honest. One day I called in sick at the university where I work, later that same day they found what appeared to be a fake bomb a couple buildings away from mine 

Now that's a good day to miss work. I'm back in tomorrow so I'm sure I'll get more details than what's been said on the news about it

if you weren't there, then at least they didn't come for you. 

That's what I was guessing, I just left there early this afternoon. 

Started by lightning I am guessing (and hoping that it wasn't someone doing something stupid)...hopefully rain can help the situation.

Then the traumatizing one.....

Yup, lightning is most likely, they worked on the fire overnight til it was out, being right beside houses and all

Went through it this year with my Dad,sorry to hear about your loss..he will always be with you.

. the memories become more vivid ..

hearts & hugs

Heh, not quite at the hobo stage, that's when the birds become the other white meat.

If living deep in major cities has taught me anything, its that earplugs are very much your friend.

It's killin' me that they all start their chirpin' barely past 3:30 am in the mornin'...I mean c'mon!

a pox on the chicken that gave it to you..

Crazy! Did you ever have it as a child? I've heard it's quite a bit worse as an adult than as a child. Not that it was at all enjoyable as a child.

Neither me or my sis had it as kids somehow, I got it from being around mum while she had shingles. It hasnt been all that bad beyond a constant headache and difficulty swallowing at times, since its in mouth too. Havent had too bad of itching either somehow.

Yeah, this shouldn't be an attack on Virtanen given the current situation happening in the KHL.

So.

Finland?

Switzerland?

Yeah, I don't think anyone can lord this over him, he's far from the only player who's bailed out of Russia with everything going on. 

Sadly another one of those guys who had so much fan fare at one point then faded away into obscurity 

NHL: "Nah headshots aren't a problem". 

It's a shame he never had a whole lot of support on the NHL squads he played for before injuries caught up with him, especially during his time in Columbus. Almost always had to do the heavy lifting alone when he wasn't playing for Canada.

RIP

10 years?  time has gone fast .... rest in peace luc

There is a feature on Luc soon on the 2nd intermission....Calgary vs Arz.   James Neale playing with Luc at the under 18.  Didn't know that.

Yeah. No.

Doesn't wanna pay the cost to be the boss, eh?

That's dumb. At least you know you're needed.

doesnt come out in canada till end of january i beleive. on netflix too

I havent watched shows on tv in years, always found things online so airing date is never an issue

The feels 

Do you get paid extra for the sixth day?  

Pretty sure it's just normal pay. It's all well and good since I said I'm taking monday off to have my 2 day weekend. I can't complain about that then.

I can't relate. I have no friends. 

Loool relatable 

A lot of my buddies are like this, which i'm grateful for as we all became parents at different times, as well as grew up and are career minded, which of course cuts into "bro" time.  Friends like that are timeless, cherish them with a good beer and solid laughs.

Glad to hear they're alright! I had a couple friends who were stranded in the Rockies after their car got sandwiched by semis (thankfully they weren't in it!)

Glad to hear your friends are ok! Cars are replaceable, people aren't. 

I'm hoping the guy gets charged for it in some way and doesnt get off completely free. Im sure something will happen to him though

so what are you looking for in a rental ?

what area of town ?

That's great!  

Well..after almost a week of waiting, got a response saying they found someone else without even bothering to respond to me. Oh well, that was expected.

Where can I find a transformer that blows? I've always had a thing for Optimus Prime.

Sorry Mash. Wrong kinda transformer. We can get you Bumblebee on shorter notice though.

Bumblebee? Man... After all I've done for you, the best you can do for me is Bumblebee?

Sigh, alright I'll take it. Tell him to meet me in Victoria.

was he white or grey?

Did he block your way to the bin and say. "YOU SHALL NOT...PASS!!!! Without a scratch under my chin first." ?

@Roberts Gandalf the slate grey, to be exact. And he just hung out with me in the yard for awhile until I went back inside, looking for attention the whole time @Ghostsof1915

Oh my!  This one time, there were helicopters flying my building and smoke out my window, and I turned on the news, and there was a fire down the street and was seeing the whole thing on the news.  I called my boyfriend at the time telling him what was happening, and if I should take my cat to a safer place, and my then boyfriend assured me that everything was ok that firefighters were on the roof.  This older guy, about 87 years had purposely set fire in his apartment killing himself and burning down the building.  The building was set to be demolished for condos, and he had lived there for 30+ years.

It turned out to be a hoax, second time in the past 2-3 years a hoax is reported by the same address >_>

if not a hoax, stay inside, stay safe. if a hoax, I dare you to post this on face book. you would get a lot of people.

Every year, if you can get them on in September/October. Or you can get all weather tires year round.

But that's more wear on the tires.

I never realized how amazing snow tires were until I started using them in the past two years. Night and day over all-season tires.

Alf’s scooter has snowys’ year round. 

or slip the masseuse an extra $20

$200 for a very happy ending.

#10. No, $5 dalla. But too beaucoup! Too beaucoup!
