  Bridgestone Blizzak WS70 Winter Tires

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so, after 3 and a bit winters in canada i finally invested in a set of winter tires.

  up till now i've had a good set of all-seasons (goodyear assurance tripletred) and they have been very good even coping with a sudden calgary freeze last winter that saw accordian buses sliding back down the hill we were on (scary!

  ) and general chaos on the roads.. but, driving on the deerfoot on solid polished sheets of black-ice in rush-hour traffic is not nice and you could feel the car getting more than a little vague at times.

  Lee, how do you take care of maintenance like that?

  Are there shops that specialize in maintaining medical equipment, or are you expected to change the tires yourself?

  Where do you get the tires?

  How much variety is there?

  Maybe this isn't an original thought

  a phrase occurred to me during my musings.

  it might serve as a challenge to the religious.

  presumably it won't strike a chord with most religious minds but maybe some, who knows.

  Each of us leaves for our own reasons. The important thing is that you are now aware.

  Simon, I'm glad you had such excellent results. Are you allowed to use studded tires in Canada?

  I've been fortunate to avoid acquiring much experience driving in those conditions, but my one experience with studded tires was in the Great Seattle Blizzard about ten , maybe 12 years ago (actually, maybe more than that). Anyway, I was in a cab with studded tires, and he drove purposefully and intelligently and never once got stuck. We passed a LOT of stuck and abandoned cars that day.

  When it snow in Seattle, lots of people just stop wherever they are - freeway, access ramps, side streets - and walk away from their cars.

  Yes, they are morons.

  the following is part of a letter written to my sister (last remaining family still a jw) who needed surgery.

  i hoped this would be an opportune time to raise the error of misinterpreting the handful of verses that they use to justify wanton suicide.

  if you can think of any arguments that she may present in an effort to rebuff the points made then please comment.. .

  I made much the same argument on this discussion board a few years ago but you've articulated much better than I did. Well done!

  i took pride as a 9 year old "boy" that i was a "minister".

  i had a card that i carried in my wallet (with no money in it) that said i was a "minister"..
