Someone's a little jealous of me she had to use my name for Likes
But since you like facts & let's take a closer look at why my following is greater than yours: I explain corruption to Canadians, I'm smarter, happier, I believe in two genders, I don't drink the Liberal Kool-Aid, I own dozens of businesses, employ hundreds of people across North America, I post on social media purely for positive change for this country, I REFUSE any sponsors & sponsorship money, all the while my summer car is a Pista and Winter car a Sterrato - cars you will never own, drive or even understand what they are.
And then there's you...l believe you're: unmarried, unhappy, broke, have zero control of your emotions, lack basic reasoning skills, unintelligent, resort to name calling to make up for said lack of intelligence, fired from your last job, unemployed but working full-time on social media while sucking at it!
How does one think to compare a lion to a stinky fish?”

"They reshot it. They did a lot with The Hound's face, they had to superimpose my face on it"

What do we call the snow roof extensions? Snoof? Ronow?

This one is over this weird half closet above the basement stairs and accessed from the extra bathroom/laundry.

This morning I opened it up and could see a bit of daylight in the soffit. We keep the karaoke Santa in there, it’s a good spot.
