Sad to see this guy go ... he was well liked and did UBC well! But University of Michigan is hard to pass up. | |

Say he’d order a $7 drink and an $18 plate he’d toss in $25 like tax and tips don’t exist. I let it slide the first handful of times I noticed but one day after he pulled his stunt I had enough and called him out in front of the whole table. 
I was not invited to his wedding two weeks ago

As a youngster, I had the opportunity to be out in the waters around Uculet, Tofino, and Spring Cove, where my father moored his little commercial fishing boat. Back then, Tofino was a lesser known community with pristine waters with little to no tourists. https://time.com/collection/worlds-g...tish-columbia/
Can't keep beautiful places a secret for too long.

Meh I much prefer Bamfield to Tofino/Ucleulet, but it's going to get fucked by tourists too once they pave the road in the next couple years...
I'm heading out there on Friday!

Ono and his wife will be closer to their aging parents, who live on the east coast. Also, Michigan will pay Ono around US$900k, whereas he was only getting around $600k from UBC.

I can just imagine how amazing it must have been for the sailors in a tall ship sailing those waters for the first time back when the white man explored the West Coast. That didn’t come out right. Anyway, you get the idea………..

Regina - no line

This was yesterday.
YYZ - YVR
When I got to YVR at 9:30am, lines looked pretty long but I also overheard a couple saying it took them 30 mins. The checked bag line looked chaotic but about 15 minutes is how long it took people to get through. Definitely show up 2 hours in advance. You never know what will happen.

Regina - no line | Same experience last weekend going to Regina. If you have a nexus card you can skip a lot of the line at YVR, I had mine but my son has been waiting to reknew his for over a year so he didn't have his, wasn't able to use that line.
You think there would be more people trying to get out of Regina which would lead to a longer line than 1 or 2 people, hate that shit hole so much.

^ true but teaching/academics is a non-profit and you gotta generate $$ somehow if you want to do research, hire excellent faculty, attract bright students, etc. It's a deal with the devil, I suppose.

Car got keyed, does anyone know if the cops would ask the building / businesses I was parked outside of for camera footage? Or people just take the L?

@gerbs
Report it to the police regardless, they track crime, might be able to line it up with someone else's report, if you are very lucky.
In other news, I pulled into a gas station 30 mins ago, buddy guy starts reversing waiting in line, I start honking, he keeps backing until he bumps my car
Completely oblivious, did not even realize it....
I park, check the car, clear coat damage only, woman asks if I need a witness, I say no and thank her, drive off  
Now that I think about it, what if buddy guy claims I drove into him

Gerbs, if you saw a business with a camera facing where your car was parked I’d ask them if they could search by time and date.
I’m not sure the cops would request footage for this type of crime and even if they did, it could be overwritten by the time they do.
Same for you, donk. See if you can get the evidence to prove that you’re not at fault just in case.
