Thanks Page 🇨🇦

Often, if we learn from it, fear can bring real focus.😉
Brendan, is a very focused young man now… sometimes still a little overconfident in life but, confident, sure and measured while driving.
I guess I taught him one useful skill in life 😏🇨🇦

Kenora, is a an absolute garden destination, compared to, Dryden.
Which, in my opinion and experience, is easily the shittiest burg in the country.
At least, Kenora and the greater Lake of the Woods area, is rather pretty in the summer.
Dryden, is the Fifth Ring of Hell all year🇨🇦

The younger boy had a perfect example of it, while he first got his learners.
We were driving on Devonshire Dr towards Cliffe St.
Way too fast for the turn and conditions(snow)… zoom, and over the curb. It scared him. Something not easily accomplished at 16 but, a perfect teaching moment🇨🇦

Nikki Lauda Ass, is the PERFECT description of the skill. I tried very hard to instil it in the boys… only one of them truly gets it and pretty much unfailingly can execute it.
The lack of that skill set is why I’m TERRIFIED to drive with my BIL… “What do you mean lateral acceleration…?” 😳🤯🤬🇨🇦

The newest snow tires are a bit of a marvel but, Overconfidence can come before the fall… or the huge sickening crunch, whatever 🇨🇦

I thought those were banned since The Great Dippity Doo Scandal of 1997??😏🇨🇦

Yep… and best of all, even our towns like Utopia or Dalhousie, AREN’T Wawa, Kenora or ~cringes~ Dryden.
Which is a gigantic plus in my view 😏🇨🇦

“People” (which is a truly questionable descriptor🙄), have clearly and completely lost their way, along with their moral compass.
Disgusting craziness🇨🇦

Morning, John.
For a Blow by blow review, I’d strongly recommend, @pptsapper.bsky.social pieces from yesterday.
Sapper’s, stuff is absolutely top flight and as a team member of the US Army’s contribution to the bipartisan #America250, he truly knows of what he speaks.
Good person, capable and FUNNY🇨🇦

No, it shouldn’t but, it’s, unfortunately, rather common🇨🇦

Ooo, used in that range is a little harder ask.
I can offer trustworthy names, across multiple New dealerships but, used can be a shell game. Often young used car sales people are… transitory… seems a kind word.
Broadly, I always ascribe to the adage… Best to buy used, from a New car dealership🇨🇦
November 16, 2025 at 11:30 PM
BTW, what are you looking for specifically?🇨🇦
November 16, 2025 at 11:02 PM
Never get “The, or, A” kid.
Not always possible but, try to get the salesperson who’s seen some shit and has a reputation to maintain 🇨🇦

I’m going to try to transcribe her recipe, which she modified from a NYT version.
Unless you have a NYT Cooking, subscription?🇨🇦

Finished product 😉🇨🇦

Charley’s is the best I’ve ever had. By a significant margin.
Hers is slightly elevated with good wine, excellent cheese and asparagus.🇨🇦

I’m merely watching some football 🏈 that I’m not particularly interested in BUT, the lovely @charlottmc.bsky.social, is making her unbelievably delicious Cottage Pie. The wine, meat and Worcestershire aromas are wafting from the kitchen. Now I’m getting notes of Parm & Quattro cheese.
Pics later🇨🇦
