That's quite the opposite, it's to show you can have a lot of land in Alberta, 'cause nobody wants to live there.

It honestly feels like it's that big (that's what she said). Because we are on the corner, our house was set back like another 10-15 feet. Apparently corner houses are always set back, at least here. Not exactly sure why. But because of that, my driveway is 1.5 times the size of a normal one. I can fit 4 cars on the drive (2x2), with a bit of room to spare.

Now imagine all the sidewalk there is. I roughly measured it once, for a total of 250 feet. Fuck, I was supposed to buy a snowblower this year but I have literally nowhere to store it until I build a shed in the spring/summer.

This is true. Especially with oil and gas prices being in the shitter now. Oh well!

set back for safety perhaps?


maybe corner houses are more susceptible to cars veering into them


or maybe i should stop listening to the old wives' tales of my parents..

I was thinking it's for site lines and visibility, as well as making a street look bigger/wider and more open when approaching it.

Meanwhile in NC.....

North Carolina citizenry defeat pernicious Big Solar plan to suck up the Sun | Ars Technica

All the young people are going to move out," warned Bobby Mann, a local resident concerned about the future of his burg. Worse, Mann said, the solar panels would suck up all the energy from the Sun.
Another resident—a retired science teacher, no less—expressed concern that a proposed solar farm would block photosynthesis, and prevent nearby plants from growing. Jane Mann then went on to add that there seemed to have been a lot of cancer deaths in the area, and that no one could tell her solar panels didn't cause cancer. “I want information," Mann said. "Enough is enough.

Sorry...I am bad with names...but, who is Ian?



And yeah, per what I wrote in that thread, the execution of this year's charity run is probably not...conventional. But, not my "pay-grade" (i.e. $0).

The "rules" of this charity drive feels like playing a card game with a 5 year old. Where they keep changing the rules as you go and none of it really makes sense. But they keep saying the same thing over and over like it makes sense to them but none of the grownups understand it. Some sort of chimp logic or something.

And even when you win, somehow you lose.

And they don't even give you a fucking sticker after.
