  1. And this is why I am in no rush to get my booster when they keep texting me about it. Its the same damn formula as the original one last I read about a month ago when omincron was ramping up. Worked fine for alpha and delta, did its job in keeping down hospitalizations but its shown its not effecting omicron much so my interest in getting the same shot again thats clearly outdated at this point is not top of my priority list. I know they have talked about how they were trying to change the formula to deal with omicron but haven't heard if its completed and distributed yet.
  2. And Green had to be the face for so much of that. When crap like Virtanen situation happened, thats when the GM/President need to be out front and the leader of the franchise. I thought they left Green out there to do to much of that while Benning and Co stayed behind the curtains. There were quite a few times over the years Benning needed to step up and be the face and Green was the ones taking all the punches.
  3. Joe is paid to get ratings up at this point. He's gonna ruffle some feathers and keep that convo going with him in it. No different than fox or CNN pushing agendas to try and pump their ratings. Prior to spotify, he was absolutely solid. Haven't listened to him much, not many of his guests interest me these days.
  4. And also that's America, I'm more afraid of guns coming out too lol
  5. Outside of the fact punching him in the face first would get an assault charge, there's no way in a million years an adult should be yelling at kids like that. He's acting like they threw rocks at his car, no they are wearing masks so he needs to keep his pissy rants to himself or go take it up with his mayor or MLA (whatever they are called down there).
  6. Yea I'm gonna give it another few weeks and see if they go back to 24 hours or I will be switching out. Just not a fan of after work gym sessions, I like the early morning. Convenience is my only reason for staying right now.
  7. I don't think Dick has done enough for someone to want to take him on with extra years left on his deal unless its a player for player with similar salary like how Jim swapped Pearson and Guddy back in his Pitts days.
  8. It is what it is..... Its dead straight on my way to work so its convenient, thats about the best I can say about PF. Problem is with this reopening they decided to start opening at 5AM, well I used to go at 4am so this is frustrating and just got back from an afternoon workout and it was meh, I like the early mornings best. I am looking at a couple others right now and might just cancel my PF membership since its not early mornings now, which sucks because everything else is a 7 minute detour out of my way essentially (x2).
  9. You'll have 1 or 2 morons say it will be like Jan 6 and it blows up into a major story. Acting like all these people that oppose vaccine mandates are some sort of radicals is a ridiculous statement, most of these people just don't believe in being told what they should put in their body and after being praised as front line workers for the longest time, now they are the enemy because they don't believe in vaccines? Theres been tons of freedom rallys out in Vancouver and Victoria, I haven't heard of anything getting out of control, its people opposing vaccinations and segregation. I have a large portion of my friends that are against the vaccine and even more who don't support the mandates and don't like them splitting us into 2 different groups. Not a single one of them I would even think for a second in a million years would think "oh hey we should storm parlament hill and get to the PM like America did!" No not a single one, they just don't want this segregation.
  10. Says he was the european scout, but did he ever lead the department and have final say?
  11. Wtf? This was a house I wanted to look at back in December at the 1.1 price. Got bought way over, there's zero comparisons as to the condition of the house for that price tag, popped up a week later looking for a renter for the house at $3500/month on Facebook and now it's listed again 35 days later for slightly less than they paid a month ago? Man I don't drink enough.... I can almost guarantee this was money laundering lol
  12. I never did get it. Everyone has a phone/tablet now. All you needed was an app with maybe a $20/month subscription to have someone yell at you and a regular stationary bike.
  13. Really? Because PTON has had a 22% spike in the past week! Just ignore the 1 year chart though.....
  14. Didn't they say a week or 2 ago they were going to split the numbers in hospitals into those who are in FROM covid and those that happen to have it but there for other things? Now I see its saying covid-positive as apposed to covid like in the past. With how transmissable omicron is, yea hospital numbers have gone up but a good portion of those people probably just happen to have tested for it as opposed to be there because the virus made them sick enough. I swear they were going to split those numbers but doesn't look like they are.
  15. I am no where near qualified, but I HIGHLY doubt the Feds (liberals or conservatives) would ever allow rates to go up to a point where many many people are defaulting. Plus many people have locked into 5 year rates, generallly variables are less than fixed even with rising rates . Honestly, if I am in your position, don't get out and sit on cash. I did that prior to this massive run up, have been on cash for over a year and my wife still can't find a damn house and the bastards keep rising. We both regret ever selling, we had reasons, but no one saw this run up coming like this.
  16. Its just different. I think its because you've gone there for a reason, to work out, usually on a time frame so you know you need to get xxxx done before work/dinner/family/etc. I have tried home gyms, its good but not nearly the same, just can't get the focus, find I slack or take a lot more rest or time.
  17. I don't know theres like 3 of us at 4AM in a massive gym. Thing was so wide open you could litterally throw a football around and not have to worry about hitting someone.
  18. I cant wait till 4am Thursday morning. Finally my early mornings will be worth it again! Never once felt unsafe at my gym, always seemed clean and people followed rules.
  19. Oh no another small buisness dead
  20. Sorry to hear that. I broke my leg just before covid, got the ok to go to physio to walk and my achilles had gotten so tight I couldn't move ankle much, got in 2 sessions before province closed (or severely scaled back patients/hours) in March 2020, not being able to get full physio or be able to get to the gym as much as I needed to severly delayed my recovery by probably 6 months atleast.
  21. I got in this last January, glad I cut bait early after some quick losses.
  22. Imagine if someone could stop the Feds from spending money they magically don't have.... Its almost like how the average joe can't miss a dollar on his taxes before morons decide to come after us and if we owe money they take our stuff. I love how the government can just spend nilly willy and play it off like its fine and a good thing.
  23. Closed as of now, see tomorrow at news conference if they change.
