As if things could not get any worse, on my way home from work some woman T-boned me and fucked up my ride.
I don't think it is a write-off, but you never know with insurance companies these days.

Damn bro.

I understand the bullshit you’re dealing with. Here in Calgary we’re having water troubles due to the main feeder line rupturing yet again this year.

Damn! Infrastructure falling apart just like here.

I didn't know you were in Calgary. I been out there once, Alberta is beautiful!
I went from Toronto to Calgary down to Lethbridge to Montreal and back to Toronto.
One of the most memorable runs I have ever done.

Kind of half-assed watching the Giants home opener with the Yankees. Only because I wanted to see how this automated pitch caller thing would work.
I am not sure how it works exactly, but it allows teams to dispute calls from blind men like the former home plate umpire like Angel Hernandez.

I think each team only gets two challenges on the pitch caller thing. I haven't read up on it, so I am not sure.

Maybe @Mike knows. He is a baseball fan

That would be a memorable run. I’d love to do rounders like that but Northern Ontario has too many close calls and road closures these days to make that run enjoyable.

I actually grew up about 15 minutes North of Georgetown. Not too, too far from where you’re at.

A few guys tried to get that as a dedicated run but, the company wanted to take off a few cents a mile for it being a dedicated. No Takers.

Also yes, Northern Ontario via 11 and 17 is a death trap. Known as the Taliban trail. I didn't have any issues but there sure was a lot of trucks in the rhubarb with police tape around them waiting on heavy tows to come out and recover the trucks no driver present.

The Turban Turnpike
The Paki Parkway
The Rupee Road
The Indian Interstate
Water Bottle Way.........

Whatever you call it it's not a good time winter or summer loaded or empty legal size oversize or sun in your eyes.

Yes, I just thought of that. God help me.

Well @Rigjockey it looks like the Jays are still on pace to win 162 games this year.

 

[Rigjockey]

Lots of rain last night and today. I like the rain if I am at home. I hate the rain if I am working.
I woke up and it was still overcast from the earlier rain, and I was thinking this would be a great day to stay at home and sleep. But I can't do that.

Maybe I will use one of those fall asleep to rain and or thunderstorm things on the YouTube.

It was looking that way until Monday, and then everything just fell apart.
A total blowout to team that was in last place, last year.

They made good last night. 161 is still pretty good right? Just gotta keep Little and Ponce away from the mound. Ponce done solved his self

When that guy fell trying to throw a pitch I thought I was watching Bad News Bears all over again. The whole playoffs last year you just wanna smash the TV when you see Hoffman in the pen. So far I only wanna smash the TV slightly less. I think Little is kind of a new development. Hopefully that's a fluke and he pulls his head out.

On this Easter weekend I watched the Passion of the Christ for the second time. The first time was in a theater 20 years or so ago. This was made by Mel Gibson.

It's a two-hour gore fest and not much else.

It has sub-titles. Kind of hard to read the subtitles at the bottom and watch the scene at the same time.
This is why I have a general rule of not watching movies with sub-titles.

 

[Rigjockey]

I got my car back from the body shop after the accident. They did a good job!

I ordered and received a dashcam from Amazon. Too much Brampton bullshit going on everywhere!

I should have got one sooner and was thinking about it. I figured I was a good defensive driver, and it could wait. I was wrong. Sometimes the offensive driving beats the defensive driving.

 

[Rigjockey]

I got to ride in an electric Polestar for the first time on my way from the rental place to the body shop.
I do not recommend zero stars.
No head room, hard to get in and out of, poorly made and judging by the screen say headlights need servicing...I would say, not very reliable.

 

[Rigjockey]

The power went out here today. I can see an intersection from my window the traffic lights were out too.
In a civilized society traffic light not working defaults to a four way stop it's the law here actually.
The amount cars I saw blow through the intersection was unbelievable!

They need their license revoked, or, or...
This guy has the right idea.

It works that way here too, even in the uncivilized places like Kankakee, IL where apparently, the mullet has come back into style.

I had a great breakfast in Kankakee once. I brought a load of paper, and they unloaded outside in I guess what you could call an ally. The guy unloading says you can get breakfast at this diner a few doors down, come back in about an hour and a half.
Good breakfast, the locals there all seemed to know each other.

Damn shame about the mullet coming back, that was never a good look.

 

[Rigjockey]

I had the pleasure of being face to face with this beast. RIP AN-225.

The phone company calls me up and offers me a new phone. That's great because my old phone was not charging properly and the battery ran out quickly on a full charge.
They couriered it out to me. Most times in the past I would go to the store or mall kiosk. Most times the Kiosks don't have the Ultra version of the Samsung Galaxy, so that is why I chose to have them ship it out. I have always dreamed of having the larger screen Ultra.
The phone arrives and I transfer all my data, apps and what not. Insert the new SIM card. Transfer the old SIM to the new SIM on my account. Not really that hard even for a computer illiterate person like me.

Now I want to know why these "people" working at the stores and kiosks are unable to update a new SIM card to my account and also why they can't transfer data and APPs from an old phone to a new phone?

The answer is simple. They are incompetent and or too lazy

 

[Rigjockey]

Ya'll know how I feel about my beloved Toronto Blue Jays right?
Unconditional love but, honest to fuck, the way things are going I don't know.
It kinda looks like this...
