Sometime around October 2003 my transient biker buddy stayed at my place for a month but could not get his act together to follow up on his plan to move to Calgary. So I gave him a few bucks and my old chevy truck so he could haul his vintage triumph motorcycle.I told him I will keep the insurance on it for 1 week and mentioned to him not to drink and drive. He gets out of the province with my truck and while driving and having a beer he gets surprise swarmed by 4 federal cars.He spilled beer all over his beard Turn out the cops were just as surprised it was not me in the truck and let him drive away. I have always been curious what would have happened if it was me driving

I once got a standing ovation from everyone in a high clas Italian restaurant in Montreal for shoveling snow at incredible speed. It was a square alluminum shovel and I used it something like a snowthrower moving the shovel in a rotating fashion and cleared deep snow fast.

In the spring/ early summer of 72 to 74 on my way to school I spotted the Prime minister heading for the city Hall area. I yelled at him Pierre Eliot Tru...... In class we had a current events talk and when I told my story to the teacher she didn't believe me but the next day she did.
I road in the elevator with the Mayor of my area, and my boss - and I did not say a word to him about the crappy job he is doing......
When I told my co-workers about meeting the Mayor, they could not believe that I would say nothing to him. I felt I wanted to keep my job a while longer.
