I think she has a red fetish.

Hi Everyone!!

Hey KC, how goes it?

Hey Fleas, things are pretty good, how goes it with you?

Doing pretty well, thanks.

Never bought a new car before, so why all the secrets when trying to find out if you got it or not? I asked outright in an email, did she get the car or not? I get this response: That’s
what the manager indicated to me. . I just want to “see it in print”
which they will do in the morning. I’ll send a new email then.


WTF does that mean? He indicated that she can't have a direct answer?

I think when applying for financing they want to tell everyone that they are approved (it looks good on them) but then it goes through another two stages of approval before it really gets approved. The lots finance dept checks it and then puts it through and then it goes to the financers finance dept for final approval. Good Luck and I hope you will have a new baby soon!!

Wow, what a pain in the ass.

We don't care either way, but it's like getting a gift.....you wanna know right away what's in that box.

Thanks!

This is going to get ugly:

Toronto dad not allowed to watch daughter's swim class for religious reasons

TORONTO - When
a single dad signed his nine-year-old daughter up for female-only swim
lessons, he didn’t realize he — as a man — was going to be banned from
watching her practice.
Chris (who didn’t want his last name
published) was shocked when he had the blinds to the viewing area of
the Dennis R. Timbrell Recreation Centre pool in Flemingdon Park shut
on him and then was told by staffers it was for “religious reasons.”
“I
spoke to a staff member and she told me that it’s because of Muslim
women, that we’re not allowed to look at them or whatever,” Chris, 38,
told the Toronto Sun Friday. “I don’t think religion has a role to play
in a public pool.”
Chris said he enrolled his daughter online
through the city’s website and registered her for the Ultra Swim 1:
Female class – a nine-week course offered for free at the community
centre.
Nowhere on the form did it mention that males could not watch the lessons.
So,
when he showed up with his child at the pool on March 28 and again on
Thursday night, he was confused when told he wasn’t allowed to watch.
“She
doesn’t have a lot of friends and I wanted her to swim with girls,”
Chris explained. “I don’t know what parent wouldn’t want to watch their
child participate. There were other fathers there who weren’t too
happy.”
Local Councillor John Parker hadn’t heard of the
particular case until the Sun contacted him Friday, but said the dad’s
point is a “legitimate one” and raises a “fair issue.”
“If we
have a young child and there is a desire for the parent to provide
supervision I would hope that we would not be so inflexible,” he said.
The Ward 26-Don Valley West councillor said there are only so many hours available in the pool.
“So
we have to decide and we have to determine just what are the options
that are available to us and how many hours are there in the day to
allow the different options that communities want,” Parker said. “So
far the pressure has been to provide hours for women only, this gives
rise to the legitimate question: ought we to find time for mixed groups
precisely to accommodate the concern that this parent has raised.”
Female-only
swim programs began 20 years ago on the basis of “accommodating
cultural and religious practices and requirements,” confirmed city
aquatics manager Anne Jackson.
“Without a female-only program,
there would be women that wouldn’t be able to participate in swimming,”
Jackson said. “This is the way it needs to be in order to accommodate
the programs. We’re not opening the door to one cultural group only —
this is all females we’re accommodating.”
Late last month,
Dennis R. Timbrell began a male-only swim course where only men could
watch from the sidelines — no moms. The program bred from the same
religious/cultural reasons, Jackson said.
If any parents wish to
watch their child who is enrolled in a female or male-only swim class,
they would have to move them to a mixed boys/girls class that runs
three days a week.
The weekly gender-specific swim classes are
open to anyone from two to 18, but Jackson said the city won’t consider
separating existing classes into younger age groups (that would allow
parents of the opposite sex to be present) because it wouldn’t
“accommodate the needs of the majority of people who want to
participate in a girls-only program.”
She agreed, however, the
registration forms should be clearer in stating that only parents of
the same gender of the child will be admitted.
“I think that’s a fair criticism,” Jackson said.
There
are currently nine pools across Toronto that run the female-only swim
program. All pools follow the same policy of not allowing people of the
other sex to watch practices, Jackson said.

Hi Everyone

Hi Yorkie!! How are you?

Hey miss key.

things are good here,election is finally certified,planted a new weeping willow tree today and got the yard mowed.

We can't do anything, weather doesn't want to make up its mind. 12 today, 3 tomorrow, 6 the next, then 3, then 12 again....ugh. At least you're getting some stuff done yourkey.

cold rainy here today,love me some rain

Good Morning

Weeeeeeeeee, picking up the Honda on Thursday!

We have rain all freakin' week. I don't mind at all, even had some light show yesterday.

congrats fleas

Thanks Yourkey! I get the old (2011 is old?) car for work, she will drive the new one (obviously). My work is talking going full days in the next couple of weeks, so my pay COULD double. No sense buying junk when we can afford new with full warranty. In reality, it's only costing us $100 more a month than what I was looking at.

Anyway.....we are getting poured on again. No light show today though, so that kinda sucks.

Well as you know,I have an issue with driving things that aren't red(dont look in my driveway) so I wont argue wifey driving new car

weather here sucks today,cold windy and damp UGH

Same crap here. Was supposed to be cold tomorrow, but now they say 10 and more rain, yay!
