TIPS AND PROMOS - Week 47

TIPS for Week 47
________________

WINTER DRIVING TIP ABOUT CRUISE CONTROL

Frank sent me this reminder – Never drive on wet or icy roads with your transmission in CRUISE CONTRL. If it is ‘on’ and your car begins to hydroplane, your tires will lose contact with the pavement – it will accelerate at a higher rate of speed until you lose control. Only use ‘Cruise Control’ on dry roads. Thanks Frank for the reminder.

RV Living.net FORUM CHANGES

I am happy to report with the help of my Webserver I have successfully eliminated the Spammers from my Forum. New users have two choices to post a Q – send me an email requesting you wish to register – with your favourite user name and PW if you wish OR else I will choose them for you. I can then register you through the ‘backdoor’. It is working well. You can also send me your Q or comment by email if that suits better. I will answer it and post it on the forum. We all learn from each other.

I didn’t want to shut the Forum down and now thankfully I don’t have to – since we all learn from each other – each RV comment is important. Canceling access to fill out the profile on line has stopped the 45-50 disgusting Spam log-ins that I received daily for the past two years. I even have time to update my website. REGISTERED VISITORS CAN STILL POST AS BEFORE

CANADA'S EXPRESS VU CDN TV CHANNELS – partial repeat

Received an email recently from Exp Vu Users Liz and Jeff – they now have a 24” dish and a 3100 receiver. They are between Houston and Galveston and at this point they have lost no channels. With their 18” dish last winter they did lose them.

Just south of San Antonio John and I lost 16 Exp Vu channels (Exp Vu is the same as Dish Network and it is the main choice for Cdn programming) – no changes in Alamo.

UPDATE ON CDN VETERANS AND RETIRED RCMP PENSION CLAWBACK

Mr. Bill Casey, MP from Nova Scotia has submitted a Private Members Motion M-363 to make other members aware of the ‘Clawback’ of our pensions. If you wish to say thanks for Mr. Casey taking our fight to the next level, call him at (613) 992-3366 or send his office an email (Lorne, his assistants phone is 613-297-2946). Each email will be read and notes taken – if possible answers will be sent. We sent one and Lorne called us back to thank us enough for caring. The more that parliament and the public are aware of our plight the sooner a solution may be reached. The Government needs to take action - we have all lost several hundred dollars each month that is rightfully ours - some as much as $5-600.

PROMOS for Week 47

JOHN’S NEW POOL CUE

I frequently relay that John loves the challenge of a game of pool (billiards). He grew up with a Cue in his hands and he thrives on seeing how good he can become. It has been a long time since we have been in a park with an active ‘Between Park’ competition. That is not the case this season. Both Casa del Valle and our new park Alamo Palms are in the same competitive league where every week they play in a different park – he hopes to make the Alamo Palms team. Well a good Cue is half the battle and this week he ordered a special fabricated model. We visited Jim Vargason in Siesta Village RV Park on highway 1015 in Weslaco and John now has a new Cue just for him – his previous one also has a new tip. Jim will even build from scratch a personal specialized Cue for anyone. He also repairs tips and any other part of the Cue plus he has a selection of new and used, plus expensive and reasonably priced ‘sticks’. Pool players in the Rio Grande Valley who would like a custom-made Cue or even if a quality ordinary one is on your wish list, why not give Jim a call at 956-447-2504. You can have it in a day or two.
