Happy with Alex Luk @ Compass Notary near Metrotown. Referred to me by my realtor (also an RS member). Paid about $600 in 2016. Rates I'm sure have gone up since but he will break down the price upon request and not throw you a random number.

Might be easier for you to find an asian shop if you're doing bulk, just make sure they cut it properly and have the wire brush to clean it up, etc.

Sounds legit from dealer, because dealer + distributor markup. But a quick search on ebay finds them for $72.51 CAD shipped.

Yeah, unless you drive really spiritedly or track the car, you can probably get away with using some Centric brake pads.

Three letters and four calls from Sirius XM telling me to renew my trial period subscription. It ends in July/August. What the hell? It's harassment. Once, twice, maybe, but fucking hell......... leave me alone, ffs.

I'm not into XM, but like to listen to the Elvis Channel, the Eagles when they had it, or the Beattles Channel. I'm not gonna pay for it, though.

Any way around the pay thing? My Acura had XM and not a peep from them for nearly two years.........even after I sold it.

Anyone get hit with a bunch of unknown and USA numbers recently? My call log is full of red unanswered calls, blocked them all after the first call. The calls all started at the beginning of June.

Bye bye miss American pie
https://www-m.cnn.com/2018/06/05/us/...rnd/index.html

Quote:
The next edition of the Miss America pageant will scrap swimsuits and will be more inclusive to women of all sizes, the contest announced Tuesday.
Gretchen Carlson, the chairwoman of the Miss America board of directors, announced on "Good Morning America" that the event will no longer feature a swimsuit portion.
Miss America will be a competition, not a pageant, Carlson said on the show Tuesday.
"We will no longer judge our candidates on their outward physical appearance. That's huge," she said.

I told them to call back on Saturday and the guy said he can't. I said it's your problem and I'm busy as fucked. XM never called back again lmao.

Sitting in my truck, on the ferry to Victoria. I see a huge cloud of smoke coming from a couple of cars ahead of me, thinking "holy fuck these vapers are being so heaty"
Next thing you know, the guy on the driver's side is all frantic, then starts asking for water. Flames start coming up from his door panel and he starts trying to pat it out with his hand lol. So I grabbed a fire extinguisher and put it out but the plastic kept smouldering. At that point the ferry workers showed up and took the hose to it. Last I saw they were taking an axe to door, flooding it with water. RIP Hyundai

Good thing trading stopped for the weekend. Same thing happened exactly a year ago. Then things got better. A steady rise peaking in September. Still better than 68 cents on January 19th in 2016, and 61.98 on January 18, 2002.

It was only recently I realized the “first narrows” is the lions gate lol

Oddly enough last night while making some pre-packaged ribs I also came to the realization that “honey garlic” sauce is a combination of both honey..and garlic..

Am I retarded?

No, just used to hearing it without putting much thought into it is normal.

Also, narrows refers to the parts of Burrard Inlet that are close together. Have you ever canoed Indian Arm? It is so beautiful. Once you get past the industrial parts leading up to it, that is. Nature is so goddamn awesome. It's why we live here. Then all hell breaks loose when a jet ski zooms by.

I haven't been to Indian Arm since I was a teenager. Is it still undeveloped?

Not sure what I'm supposed to see but it was a lady and her tiny dog, in the Jeep.

BC Ferries just rang me and as a thanks, are sending roundtrip vouchers for 4 and a vehicle. Nice gesture and I think we'll check out Ucluelet, since I've never been.

I saw it and was thinking at the time he might take legal action. Up to this time, nobody knew his name. Now his name is going to be out there. Douchebag. He wasn’t totally naked, but once on the field, he should be fair game. What do you say, Gh0strider? I remember the time you tackled a perp/perv on the field, lol.

I think a big part of the issue is that the in house security was useless and kind of “enabled” it to happen. Watching the videos the security either didn’t even react, or it was some fat fuck jogging at a pace that he would never catch up.

Hopefully sues enough to shut the lions downnnnnn
