Indies only, for me. Two reasons important to me. She gets all the cash, and screens clients her way. ? Can girls working for an agency turn down clients (either types or repeats) that they would rather not deal with, even though they have been screened by the agency.

I picture WIT as a wise old Great Hornied Owl, that gives a Hoot !

Got stopped twice late sunday night. A quick lights, stickers, drinking lately, check. I'm in favor of more roadside checks. If I got stopped once a week, no problem. It means more %^&* will be weeded out. But, I do have a problem when the officer asks "have you had anything to drink this evening ?" "Ummm...Ahhhhh...no sir". If I had a beer about four hours ago, I am I lying to him. If I said Yes, would I have to "blow" ? (I rarely drink, and a beer or two tops) Wish they would word that question another way. Maybe " have you had any today ?, how many hours ago was that?

Sounds like Det. Prince is confused, or he just spilled the beans (city knows they are licencing sex services) :oops: Expect to hear a retraction any minute now !

Ok driving down the 401 with a divider, few curves and bumps. Big difference on two lane highways and backroads with many curves/ bumps. When a line of autos coming around a left hand curve, repeatedly strobing me, while concentrating on the shoulder of the road, I have to slow and/or weave. :-x (Experts say look where you want your car to go !!!!) I find it odd that Transport trucks and Tour busses do not need super beams, but every one else does. I see the convergence of several problems: Ageing population, brighter white/blue headlights, taller trucks and SUVs. Bulb makers claim Brighter, Farther and Wider beam ! http://www.mdsupport.org/library/hazard.html#blue http://www.gelighting.com/na/home_lighting/products/nighthawk/ GE Lighting/Nighthawk ("produces ultra bright light") site fails to mention the subject of headlight aiming hazard. Not surprised, just wanna sell bulbs M.O.T site ignores it too. GE says "areas illuminated with more than 15,000/40,000 candela (low beam/high beam)" M.O.T says "(9) No motor vehicle shall carry on the front thereof more than four lighted lamps that project a beam having an intensity of over 300 candela. R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 62 (9)" Something wrong here !!! Who ever wrote the copy for the GE Nighthawk TV spot, never heard of "caught in the headlights" Funny when the Raccoon says, "you have a better chance of seeing me" (before you run me over anyway, now that I'm frozen in your lazer beam at a greater distance, are you going to lock up your brakes and swerve around me....thump) I agree with this guy. "Title: Re: What is all the hoopla on HIDs? Post by: quadzilla on January 28, 2007, 09:10:01 am Just drove back from Collingwood mostly on 2 lane roads. Thinking about this thread so I compared the brightness and glare from both HID's and other headlamps as I probably had a lot cars to check as they went by going in the opposite direction. My observations are that 99% of the cars gave lots of glare and made it hard to see when they went by with only the old 80's and early 90's cars with dim headlamps not causing any problems. I did notice with HID's it depends on the maker as a Porsche Cayanne went by and I had little problems seeing but another truck (don't know what it was because of glare) made me blind. Of course, the plow/salter's lights were near dangerously blinding when he went by." My solution for now is Blu Blocker sunglasses. (no more squinting) 8-) Gonna get me some super beams (won't wait for the MOT to wake up)

Any one else have a problem with super bright headlights, or is it just me. Dropped in to my local RCMP station to ask if other drivers have expressed their concerns. I pointed out that I rarely see a transport truck that has blinding lights, to which I heard "they are regulated", but we can't do anything about autos(unless their highbeams are misused). RCMP officer says, just don't look at them... I never heard such a complaint in my six years on force...maybe you should stop driving at night. (hmmm don't look at cars, that may cross the white line and end your pleasant trip) Ever watch Canada's Worst Drivers ? (think of the thousands that don't get on the show) This is something like the Cell Phone problem. The obvious does not matter. We need years of stats, studies and deaths to prove anything. So I Googled http://www.headlight-reform.org/ "Bright and extra headlights are causing stress and I am seeing the results in my practice. Not a single patient knew about this [http://dms.dot.gov] site. Millions of people would like to see some action taken. Being confronted with a bright distracting light triggers a fight or flight response. The result is high blood pressure, stress, blood sugar increase, not to mention the added risk of eye disease. Unnecessary distracting and blinding lights are a hazard. You will actually be doing the manufactures a favor by nipping this in the bud soon as there is no doubt in my mind they and you will be liable for the damage that is resulting from this. To take a blind eye to this is not only negligent but criminal in my opinion. The eye is the most sensitive of all our senses. It is easily damaged as well as the most easily distracted. All this extra lighting is causing accidents, not preventing them. I have spoken to many people about this issue and every single one of them agrees with me. I have yet to speak to a single person who was in favor of these lights. They all said they annoyed them. Annoyance is the least of it. The only proper and indeed ethical course of action is regulate now. So it's not just me. Thinkin of getting me the brightest bulbs possible for my truck (can't beat em, join em) and wearing an Electronic Welder Mask (for when they beam me back) :ablow:

Cat, dear lady re Disclaimer: I'll bet there are a thousand guys across this country that would like to meet you someday. :bowdown: (can't find the heart throb smily)

Most guys know how protective a dog can be of their master, And petting his favorite Cat, could be asking for teeth marks. :shock: A big dog in the house (that could even open doors) wouldn't bother me, long as I knew he would heel at Your command. As Lowdark said, dogs are a good idea, if not a man eater, at least has good ears and a loud bark.

A smile, a twinkle in the eyes, and a "walk this way". Guess I am at the right address. ;-)

Really want to catch this, but it's not offered on Cogeco cable. If anyone can point me to a download, I thank you in advance.

Not working on my Samsung slider, Mine is older, discontinued model ?

Am I just thinking too much ? Let's say I suspect I just picked up a virus on my hands (a store clerk sneezes, wipes there nose, then hands me my change). I get to my sink at home without touching anything (really hard to do). I wash my hands with the delightful scent of lemon dish soap wafting up my nose. (not much different than getting sneezed at) Repeat: Molecules from hands, up my nose. Hmmmmm solutions ? Hold my breath ? Wash under an exhaust vent ? Semi serious here ! http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=9&ved=0CBoQFjAI&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.handhygiene.org%2Fdocuments%2FWhyisHandHygieneImportantinPreventingtheSpreadofInfluenza05.06.09.pdf&rct=j&q=virus+on+hands&ei=SBHvSqzON47llQfNiLj_BA&usg=AFQjCNHL1N5Hinsl8cBkbgR2hfeW5yMDMg

Anyone have news/links about the SA prayer walk ? Can't find any ! Was it a non-event ?

So "not enough is known". Me thinks gov don't want to know either !What ? No studies, polls, surveys ! In other words, since we have made it illegal, we can hide the truth we don't want to hear about. (So logical) This is what Mr Layman (me) has found with a little googling ! "Although no comparative figures are presented from these two domains, ?We found significantly more physical violence in street, as opposed to brothel, prostitution? (Farley et al., 1998, p. 419)." "The other, better designed studies cited above do indeed find significant differences in the amount of violence in various indoor versus street settings. No one is arguing that indoor prostitution is free of violence, but based on the available research literature, violence is nowhere near as prevalent as the image presented by Raphael and Shapiro (2004). Even Farley found ?significantly? more violence in street prostitution than in brothel prostitution (Farley et al., 1998, p. 419). Street prostitutes are more vulnerable to victimization than escorts, call girls, and those involved in consensual brothel and massage parlor work" Found in http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=4&ved=0CBQQFjAD&url=http%3A%2F%2Fvegaspundit.typepad.com%2Fvegas_pundit%2Ffiles%2FVAW-1.pdf&ei=8BjQSsX-LYrFlAfa3JmpCg&rct=j&q=street+prostitution+study&usg=AFQjCNHjiTm_B7ZB_K4_EIEnyZaESFuahg I suggest a poll on Cerb, to ask a simple question. Would you rather work indoors or outdoors ? We could add to the truth in this case !

Why do I love redheads ? It must be in their jeans !!! And I have Scot genes too !

maybe a typo, maybe means $90 to $140 :ablow::shock: Alarm bells going off here. This dude needs psychiatric assessment. Does he plan to take anyone with him ???

Forget the fine ! Drivers caught reading should be forced to read the Hammer Manual, WHILE driving nails ! :roll: (won't be drivin for a while either) :sm185:

I ride bikes often...newspaper, coffee I can handle, but a cell phone I might drop trying to stuff it under my helmet. :oops:

Ontario's ban on hand-held devices while driving will take effect Oct. 26. Why is this relevant to this site ? (phone tag making appointments ?) Read more: http://network.nationalpost.com/np/blogs/posteddriving/archive/2009/09/30/ontario-cellphone-ban-begins-oct-26.aspx#ixzz0SfkTvNk2 Check the Comments. Apparently it will take someone they know, getting maimed, before they change their tune. My reply would be " what gives you the right to endanger my life ?" Look around when you are stopped at an intersection in downtown traffic. How many cell phones do you see ? I am planning to use my horn and finger more often. Hands free only devices is only half the solution. There needs to be a behavior change drilled into peoples heads. If while driving you call, or get a call, you should state "I'm on the road" (meaning, the conversation maybe interupted while I avoid running over the kid on the bike ) http://www.car-accidents.com/cell_phone_car_accidents.html

A love with desires and no expectations...offered, knowing it may never be equal (or even returned).. imagine that. Heard some Abbey Road on the radio today while I was reading this thread.. "And, in the end, the love you take, is equal to the love, you make" (McCartney)

I think the soundtrack is hilarious by itself. Close your eyes and play it again. Can imagine the neighbours shouting " Ever heard of oil ???" :sm185:
