    Coming home from soccer few weeks ago, six cars with a blown tire, I have no idea how I missed that pot hole.

    I think Germ is right. I have to travel to Dearborn for customer training on occasion. Far worse than our roads.

    They are so bad, I take the rental car insurance. A guy could lose a front end in some of those potholes!

    Floating RV's I used to have to go from Pickwick to Bradenton twice a year to help my Dad move his boat, he hated it when I called it a boat. I enjoy being on the Mississippi in my 14' jon boat way more than I enjoyed driving that 60' piece of fiberglass, plus in marinas biggest bunch of D bags in the world.

    Yeah I prefer being in a tree stand to any marina or yacht in the world, with the exception of the Monaco Grand Prix when I’m usually watching it on a vessel or sat outside our office lol.

    I just got done with my midyear board meeting, 8:30 on a Saturday morning listening to people debating how to phrase a change to the bylaws just for the sake of being on the record in the minutes.

    In Quebec City this weekend, how in the hell can a cheese burger cost $21? The same place has nachos available for $18. I did go to a restaurant in the old city last night has venison tartar and rabbit wings it was damn good.

    French Canadians like socialism. The burger was probably around $15 and $6 was all the taxes.

    On the flight from Quebec City to Toronto a guy with two kids is sitting in the row in front of me, I wanted to punch the Dad and put his son over my knee. The young son was head butting his sister and his Dad and the guy did nothing about it other than say don't do that and the kid kept doing it the daughter was crying and hurt and the little brat was running all over.
