My white gravel truck had heated mirrors, it was so nice not having to scrap frozen mirrors on a dark and chilly morning.

Good evening.
Strange but good day today, Dr. gave me a prescription for a month down at the Bob Bohan sports center, going to have to go swimming 10 times this month, maybe check out the weight room, apparently I can get a discount yearly rate and its a tax deduction as a medical expense. Went to pick up my inhaler prescription that wasn't refillable on friday and they had a double prescription waiting for me as they had contacted the Dr. for me, no wait. Went to check up on some paperwork for a subsidy that I've been chasing for a year and a half and theres an appointment being scheduled for next week and the subsidy starts november 1st.
Still having a hard time with the registry, so it's time to go to a new one, got a call from the neighbor letting me know that parking enforcement was in front of my house. They had received another complaint about my derelict truck parked in front of my house. Amazing how parking enforcement can find out all sorts of information from your plate, like your name, but not your address. Gave me a funny look when I told him that my house is on that side of the sidewalk and my truck is on this side of the sidewalk directly in front of my house and less than 4' from my yard. The only complaint that's acceptable would have to come from me or the neighbors upstairs and I had turkey dinner with then 2 days ago. Got the stunned stupid look. Let him know that the only people that don't like me and complain are CPS and the junkie friends of theirs that I ran off. Told him to go door to door on this street and try to find someone who doesn't like me. The only complaint mechanism I have is to complain to CPS. Time to send the Solicitor General an Email with the neighborhood complaints since the last Email, will include the Police Chiefs response to the same Email I sent last time.

Have you done a freedom of information search on who is making the complaints?

I know who's making the complaints, it's Luigi Loria and his junkie henchman Wayne Cater. They've been terrorizing this street and the cul de sac behind me since before I moved into the hood. I'm the guy who shut down their act, my moving in ended 3 junkie, party houses and neither they nor CPS likes it. Neighbors like it as the crime rate, junkies, fights and prostitutes are near zero now.

Sucks to have to deal with that. Most of my neighbours are pretty good. One I don't like his hot wife left him and his house is for sale now.

Neighbors are all good for the most part, Ken is a goof but he's keeping to himself. Luigi lives in Copper pond and was only here when his wife tossed him out for a year, he used that as an opportunity to set up a house for his friends. Now he has them set up about 2 1/2 blocks down. They hate everybody but themselves, probably hate each other as they're so much alike, cops like them as it allows them to control the populace.

I'm at the registry and the computer system goes down at 12.15 province wide. All they had left to do was to print my forms and give me my stickers. Bah hum bug.

Got done at the registry at 130, if you go to the registry on 17 ave se beware the white woman with the hair do, if she's in a mood she decides to be a registry ****. Her co workers deal with it on a regular basis, some of my neighbors have dealt with her, one day she is normal the next she's a beyotch. My paperwork was okay and acceptable the first time I went in, she just happened to walk by and stuck her nose into it.

Complained to parking enforcement enough that they sent a supervisor down, he tried to talk to the people upstairs and realized they didn't complain, enough of the neighbors were around that he figured out that the complaint didn't come from this street. He figured out that a restored 41 year old truck parked directly in front of it's owners house fully insured and registered and starts with no effort is not a derelict vehicle. My address and truck has been flagged, a complaint form has been filled out and the next time Luigi or Wayne try to pull this stunt they will act/ignore it. He thought it was strange that the other parking enforcement officer didn't realize the vehicle was parked directly in front of my house seeing as the address shows up on the plate verification request. welcome to calgary

That lincoln in the pic, his mother saw it happen, guy was looking forwards and drove straight into the sign like he was trying to figure out what it said. Backed up, drove a few feet, got out and opened his trunk and produced a pipe that he used to get the fender off the tire, then drove away cursing at everyone who had gathered. I was out for an hour and a half and missed everything. We get this 3 to 6 times a month as there is 5 bars in the area.
