  1. And all this time I've been worried about getting hit by a bus or getting covid. Good thing your a tinkerer. I'd be worried you would die of boredom can't wait to see what you come up with in the garage after your wife has you complete the honey do  list. I'd recommend some meds but everything available on the reserve near here is cannabis based and non gov't approved. Keep Safe and to Quote Red Green if you know who that is "We're all pulling for you"    Pat

  2. Thanksgiving this weekend in Canada new cases in Ontario at record level but hospital admissions not peaking yet. Probable spike in two weeks. Gov't advice is house hold members only for turkey feast. Pay attention i suspect your outcome in the US will be no better perhaps worse. Bars closed  and restaurants are back to to take out. Need a nice covering of white stuff to erase the memory of what was and some hope for what might be !

  3. Lets argue the facts after your dead ! Wearing a mask and cleaning your hands help to reduce the risk of contracting covid (the flue, common colds etc. ) as well as reducing the risk of spread. Unchecked it will kill  lots of people controlled it will kill some. The outcome is entirely up to each of us. The fact that more aren't dead tells me some people have been contributing to the welfare of others while the latest increase tells me more people could be doing more to reduce the spread. It  is up to you to choose life or death for yourself not for to you to decide for others. As for what is  required behavior do i wear a helmet, buckle my seatbelt stop at a stop light  ?  Yes ! Lock downs ( i don't like the term but it is what it is ) are because too many people won't do the minimum that is required and for that we all pay the price. You can live like a pig in your own pen but the trouble starts when you mingle with the others. Lets say for argument sake we all decide tomorrow not to stop at the stop signs do you think anyone will get hurt ? Sometimes i wish the consequences for bad behavior were more severe. It seems that earth is getting flatter every day !

  4. Sad and sorry is about all i can add.  My hopes are this coward has many restless nites. I never feel completely relaxed riding unless i have a wing man usually my wife. My hope for the future would be that we promote the idea of not riding alone and by doubling up you have a witness as well as someone who could chase down the offending party. As in scuba diving the buddy system has many safety advantages i would encourage all to practice it.

  5. Skwalers are freaks no mater the venue. If you have the nerve to try one your probably going to find some fun is to be had but the curve is different than alpine boards. If you have a chance jump on a slalom water ski it's a lot easier to get used to the balance thing without worrying about the trees that come up fast when your on the hill. speed is your friend when learning but also your worst enemy.

  6. Would it be possible to allow a trial thread with limited political content. I personally would find it interesting to see where it would go since i have met a few forum members in person and at face value have found them to be reasonably thoughtful and considerate in discussions on this forum and in person. From a personal perspective i'm really not interested in promoting any particular party or person i just want the people in politics to make it work and get us through this mess the world is presently in. What's working and how can we help should be the goal  

  7.  I wonder how they will get the people needed to repair the cable given the travel restricitions globally Not exactly the news i wanted to hear today. Covid cases are up in Canada to May, June levels and we thought we were doing a good job. 70% were under 40 years old. I predict our neighbors are in for a whole lot of pain in the near future. Not adhering to rules for gathering can net establishments a $10,000.00 fine. Our experts are saying vaccine relief is a year away. Say home Stay Safe everyone.
