John Cleese once nicked Canada as the most sane Country he had ever visited.

No longer it seems.

Good for BC for adopting permanent daylight time and drop the ridiculous time change twice a year. Danielle Smith is also looking into it for Alberta. Hopefully we adopt permanent daylight time here as well.

Too bad your province didn't negotiate land treaties with BC first nations way back when Alberta negotiated such treaties with their first nations. We won't have your problems of where 1500 first nations people get land rights over a large swath of Vancouver - absolutely ridiculous.

Brilliant!

The EU was supposed to get rid of it in 2021, but then the Pandemic happened, and this got placed on the backburner and unfortunately they've never come back to it.

It may seem like a minor issue, but death tolls go up every time they make people get up one hour early again.
It leads to sleep deprivation and is detrimental to your immune system and overall health.
It also leads to an increase in car crashes the week right after the spring change.

Anyone near the lower mainland feel the sonic boom from the meteor that supposedly crashed into the north shore mountains last night?

Yep, thought it was a neighbor doing something stupid. Haven’t heard if they found it.

Thursday ramblings:

If you want to walk down the middle of a parking lot wearing ear buds so you can't hear me come closer to you then I have the right to run you over.

If you leave a voicemail, speak freaking clear and slowly, don't ramble or I wont call you back.

If you are in the fast lane (or HOV) it does not mean you do the speed limit on the freeway (yeah I know).

If you are a truck driver stay in the bloody right lane except if you are going to turn left soon, just because you are 5 kms faster than another truck does not mean you can get in the left lane.

If you want to walk at a cross walk with your effing phone stuck to your face then I have the right to run you over.

If you want to do illegal drugs in public in perpetuity, then emergency responders and healthcare workers have the right to refuse their services.

Don't drive angry, Reef.

Reef, you may need to review traffic rules.
