    In my experience anyone who starts haggling over the price before work begins isnt anyone you want to start a relationship with. They are usually the ones who you will be unable to please. I think you handled it well Brandt.

    Hopefully anyone on here that is around the Fort McMurray area is doing alright. Pretty crazy seeing a fire already that size and it`s not even summer yet.

    Frustrated my employer won`t share any details about the private health insurance policy that I`m required to pay for by law, neither will my insurer. They both offered to answer all my questions without exception, so I asked for a printed copy of the contract (denied), then I asked for everything not covered and all exceptions, etc (denied).

    So I submitted my claim ($1k MRI) and they called my boss telling him they suspect me of fraud and they want to audit me!!! I was about to drive over and punch someone in the face for that slanderous sh*t.

    I guess some things in Canada are a joke... Who would pay to sign up to a blind insurance contract?!

    Sorry just had to vent, lol

    About to go back to AZ real quick!

    My inlaws were all safely evacuated, thank goodness.

    4u2nvinmtl- Yikes, sorry to hear what you`re going through. That`s really, REALLY [crappy].
    On a brighter note, I`m sure glad your in-laws are OK.

    Here`s another one.

    This guy has a few other dash cam videos as well. One shows a motorcyclist behind him and you can see the guy flinching from the heat and he just takes off. Although in that situation I don`t think I`d be on a bike, I`d be in my car.

    I think the only liquid that is more expensive on this earth than coatings are some I.V. drugs.

    What else cost $60 for 10 mls???
