Does anyone remember several years back there were runners with dismembered feet in then washing up on the coast every so often and the RCMP said don't worry about it? Is that still happening from time to time or did it stop?

But older articles from last year show it was in effect July 1st of 2020... https://www.canadiangrocer.com/top-s...ry-sodas-92958
Either way, good thing we don't buy too much of it to begin with.

Still my favourite is Giffard Strawberry Syrop, Real Lemon (bottled), Sodastream, Tropicana Strawberry Peach juice, then whole frozen strawberries. The strawberries soak up the fizz and really adds the final touch to a gorgeous drink.

Just heard on News 1130 that transit is using copper to stop the spread of viruses and bacteria. Copper kills 99% of bacteria within an hour of it ending up on it. Great.......... cost of Copper going to, as danned puts it, skyrocket. Probably not, but I remember seeing this about copper years ago when I was looking up copper as a material people wear to lessen the effect of ailments.
My mom believed it, and wore copper bracelets.
Edit: just heard the news story again. No mention of viruses. Well, fuck, then. What’s the point? Lol.

I got a quote from like a “boutique” place in north Van that was going to be $1200. It’s only my wife and I and ours is not very complicated. Our assets, our home, our investments, and then life insurance, critical illness policies, and a pension.
I know a couple people in finance who poo-poo these online wills seemingly just because they think they are “better” than somthing like that. However my parents who have substantially more assets than we do and far more complicated circumstances were also told by my dads company lawyer (a major insurance company) that unless you have business interests or other things that get very messy and complicated in a will, the online ones are perfectly fine.
And imo the reviews of places like legalwills.ca reflect that

I just bought a knockoff “little” big green egg from Princess Auto for 50% off. Holy best chicken I’ve ever had. I’m totally going to piss of my neighbours though.

I used a lawyer, $750 but we made it a bit more complicated based on various scenarios (refer to the parent thread). we probably over did it, but rather overdo than underdo...not like i can hit reset when my # is up

I found out the headphones that came with my S7 can skip forward by hitting the hang up/pause button twice and back by hitting it three times. I want something that does this so I can do it with any headphones, ideally with a short cord so it's right by the phone, but I have no idea what to search for. Does anyone know what such a thing would be called?

A quick search yielded this on Amazon https://www.amazon.ca/KetDirect-Repl...6352238&sr=8-5 however you'll need to get another Male to Female adapter for the other end.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but the new wired earphones nowadays come with that feature? I know my old Klipsch ones had these feature built-in. I mean as long as it came with those controls in the cord. Quote:
