There are a lot of things we do in our lives that fall under the category of “just in case”. Just because we have fire insurance on our home it doesn’t mean we want to have a fire. No open flame in my home thank you very much. I’ll bar-b-que in the yard thanks. Just…
Many people over the years have tried a variety of things to make their driving easier. The automakers brought in power steering and power brakes decades ago so drivers could brake and steer with much more ease. More electronic devices have been made readily available over the past decade to help drivers maneuver their vehicle…
I recently wrote about teaching my son how to drive. It’s been a few weeks now so I thought I would give an update. First and foremost we haven’t tried to kill each other…yet. I still remind him of the first rule; if he doesn’t do what I say I’ll tell mom. So far that…

Well, it’s happening again; another season of Canada’s Worst Driver. This is the 8th season. When I first appeared as a judge during their first 3 seasons, I never thought it would last this long. Are there really that many people across our country who want to embarrass themselves on national television? Apparently there are….
I’m a sports fan and I’ve often heard commentators refer to a hockey player, football receiver, basketball player or baseball player as having good hands or soft hands. This has nothing to do with which hand lotion they use, but more about how much control they have with their sport when they use their hands….
I can’t help it. I admit I have a problem. I watch drivers and can’t fully understand why some people drive the way they do. There’s no logic in what they do and if they haven’t gotten into a collision yet, they’re probably close to it. I’m pretty sure they didn’t drive that way when…
