First rule of humane management. "Do you have a minute" MUST be following by at least "it's nothing bad" if it is, indeed, nothing bad.

Ack! Yeah, that's definitely an effective way to find that out! I've been very careful about power bars for the last 20 years as a result of my own foolishness.

Hm. Maybe a little breaker would be better, then?
Also don't know about electrocution deaths by plug, but I've definitely given myself a bad shock or two by unplugging one in the worst possible way, wrapping my finger around the business end. 120V hurts. I can't imagine 240.

I LOVE IT.
Where I lived in midtown Toronto there was a corner where vehicles would vault over the curb on the regular. It was honestly hard not to. When the city briefly had some solid steel bollards at that corner to make sure drivers went around, I laughed every time I saw them dented.

Genuinely guessing, because I'm always interested in better, more human transport infra, but also underinformed on the specifics. Thinking either a fill hole (but they look like they're concrete, so probably not) or a place to drop in some kind of signage?

I'm contractually obligated to defend the honour of St. Viateur (it may have been in my wedding vows) but I've got to say, that is slick. Fairmount's got style, even if that's all they've got.

Oh man. The morning after watching Two-Face, I stopped watching BTAS for a very long time. I did not care for those nightmares.

Ooooh, I hated the Colonel. With his wee beady eyes, and that smug look on his face. "Oooh, you're gonna buy my chicken, oooh."

Would you be horribly offended if I took a pass on this with my Elder Statesman Canadian? (Think Gordon Pinsent / Neil Peart / Donald Sutherland) I LOVE this.

My elder cat has been on twice daily doses of gaba for the better part of a year now. She gets personally, grievously offended by it every single time. I wish you luck!
