Welcome welcome! Don't know much about the poles. The odd fuel truck at night is a little annoying, but besides that most of the noise outside the windows is just a dull hum. Airplanes used to be tested around the clock, but now there's no takeoffs before 7am. Really windy days can also cause...

It had to… We had a Royal Wedding event there, and people fighting over watching live hockey or basketball...

Their managers. Hence hospitals and seniors homes getting priority.

Ironically, they worked better and were repaired quicker during the elevator strike!

Shoot… Replaced mine a year and a half ago, and I can't for the life of me remember. Management should know (Mauro knew it off the top of his head when I asked him) and I picked one up at Home Depot. Pretty sure from this page: http://www.homedepot.ca/catalog/halogen-bulbs/172459/24/24/P_BuyCount|1

Still Boxing Week sales going on now… Best time of the year to get these things new.

The first step to training a dog is knowing why you need to. These neighbours were the ones who, one Saturday night from about 3am-4:30am, got into a pretty extreme screaming match, complete with objects breaking. I didn't know what they were saying because it was in all Korean. The best was...

Sadly, that doesn't do much. I've been listening to the 2 dogs nextdoor to me barking nonstop for over 2 years. Was told I wasn't the only one regularly complaining.

Same thing with my microwave, and a neighbour's microwave too. $200 for the repair. I bought a new one and took the extended warranty. He sucked it up and paid for the repair. Except if it happens once in 2 years, who's to say it won't happen again? Sucks, but what else can you do?

They mailed them out Friday. I found out when I went to ask them a question in the office.

It's November, so you know what that means: Time for M1 and M2 to get their new maintenance fees for the year. I think it was last year that they didn't touch them. This year, they are going up 2.5%. I always prepare myself for the worst when I see how people treat things like the garbage chutes...

Yeah, it was 27.5 in my place at some point in the last month when I had the curtains open and my window open... I put thermal blackout curtains in my place, and if I keep them closed, then even in the summer it is surprisingly cool. I bought a ceiling fan when I first moved in, but when I tried...

South corner of M4. And I thought it was opening soon because it looked like it didn't have all it's shelves installed and the shelves they had looked... not full... Nope, they're fully open for business. So... yeah...

Convenience store in M4!!! They have the drink fridges in the back, a lottery counter and most importantly: toilet paper right by the window! Downside: their hours are 9am-8pm everyday. And the sidewalk is just about done!

Walking distance is a fun one because of the location... It takes me about 20 minutes to walk to Bathurst-Sheppard where DQ, Starbucks, 24-hour Wimpy's, and Pizza Pizza are. Before you get there, you hit a Tim's, Wolfie's, a few local bars, etc. Takes about 10 minutes to walk north to McDonalds...

Subway runs till just after 2am. Wouldn't be that. They used to run engine tests in the wee hours at Bombarider, but they haven't for a while now (I'm a night owl). On many days, a plane takes off at 7am sharp, so they probably don't do anything before that. Besides that, I don't know of any...

Really not worth wasting the effort (even if I'm pro-BBQ). You need around 80% to change the rule. It'd be a cold day in hell before you could get 80% of the people in these buildings to agree on something.

...which should be interesting since BBQs aren't allowed, and I've heard need a very large majority to overturn.

Anything else come from the meeting? And did we at least have quorum for the other votes?

There's also the meeting about it Wednesday night in the M2 party room...
