koopharper Hey, my parents were married in the Netherlands before coming to Canada. I watched the highlights of that game with pride and made the kids watch them too. The USA made it to the round of sixteen. Canada didn't and didn't even win a game. At least we scored a...

Being homeless in Canada in the winter is a serious issue and over the past year, the issue has escalated a lot. I help build apartment buildings I could never afford to live in. Our city councilors have been warning that unless...

koopharper @JudyEv It's getting worse here. There is a follow-up on this story and it just keeps getting more dysfunctional. They identified the victim and it turns out to be someone they released from prison the day before. They didn't provide him with...

koopharper It's a growing problem here in the major cities. Unfortunately, housing costs are astronomical and the situation is not likely to improve soon.

koopharper It's really sad that it came to this. Hopefully, the homeless numbers don't swell during the winter months. The new estimates will only cover the people that are homeless right now. Fortunately we have laws that forbid evicting people during the winter...

koopharper We open up shelters but the government was grossly underestimating the number of people in need. They were estimating somewhere just over 200 people when the reality is over 500. The number has been revised to 500 now. Last year we only had 100 homeless and we...

koopharper It was horrible. Sadly that's what it took to get some action on the issue. Hopefully, it won't be forgotten in a few weeks.

koopharper @marguicha I've done a whole dozen before in an omelet but there just aren't that many of us living at home anymore. Don't have a pan for the job either.

The photo shows a small compactor which mostly gets called the 'whacker packer'. We’re using it to help lay a brick path for a friend. The bricks you can see had already been laid but there was some concern that the ground below...

koopharper I've used a lot of different tampers in my time. The jumping jacks were more fun than the plate tampers like the one in the picture. Piece of carpet was a good idea because they can break the bricks.

koopharper @TheHorse She is actually. Barely spoke English when we met. She's originally from Quebec and her ancestry is virtually all French. She doesn't even have any native blood even though the family came over in the 1600s.

koopharper I asked my wife if she likes music by Erik Satie and she doesn't know who he is so I haven't made love to a French woman who enjoys listening to him. I have done Sudoku in the past so that I've done. Had to do a little research and I recognized the music and I...

koopharper Happy Thanksgiving! It was really cold here today as well. I spent more time before the first break warming up my fingers than actually working. Manipulating small things with icy fingers is really frustrating.
