More pics from the Mill Cove ferry announcement today. The pics are of the ferry, the Mill Cove terminal, the Mill Cove bus stop, and the new Halifax Terminal.... All these are yet to be finalized and are still subject to change.

You couldn’t get any show in the TGIF lineup past the beancounters in corporate today. This is why we can no longer achieve greatness.
The creators of Hangin’ with Mr. Cooper really got five seasons out of, “What if a guy used to play basketball, but now he’s a substitute teacher?”

At first I thought this was referring to Polaris' tenure as the North Star, since the Earth's axial precession means what is the "north star" changes over time, but NOPE, the star itself is estimated to be 70 million years old, and sharks have been around for 450 million years. Mind blown.
Reminder to new users here:
Cladistically, there is no such thing as a fish or a tree. Also, sharks have existed longer than Polaris, the North Star has.

Reminder to new users here:
Percentages are basically multiplication, and thus follow the commutative property and can be shuffled around accordingly. 25% of 128 is the same as 128% of 25, and may be easier to solve in your head.

Hotel owners. I stay in hotels 40-50 nights a year.
I implore you, no matter how sleek they look, please stop installing shower taps I need a manual to use.
Also a working iron would be appreciated.
Many thanks.

I got CAA after having to get a boost last year. I got the basic yearly option and I think I paid 114 for the year.. but have also saved other places just for having it!
