Toronto to Montreal is planned but i could see the benefit of extending the line in either direction.
Thank you.
Google has failed me. Thank you.
Just saw Lynard Skynard and Foreigner in concert. Neither band has any original members touring or involved (other than one member of Skynard who was on stage for one song).
My question is specifically about Foreigner but maybe applies to Skynard as well.
How do the financials typically work? Are the current band members basically employees and, if so, who employs them? Or do they inherit a portion of the band finances when they join? Or, somehow are some members employers and others just employees? How would the employers be selected both practically and legally?
On what basis does someone get to retain the right to use a band's name?
Would the original members (or families if they have died) have a continuing financial interest? Like would the original members/families of Foreigner still get a portion of the gate for any concert even though none are involved?
I could type a dozen other questions but you get the drift. I imagine there are different arrangements but I am asking what is typical.
Again, I use Foreigner as the basis of my question but there are certainly other legacy bands with no original members and I am curious about the arrangements for all of them, not just Foreigner. I have just used them as an example.
Thank you.
The name came to me in a flash of inspiration as I was driving in the middle of nowhere in Newfoundland last year. Like a gift from god.
Thanks for any advice you might have.
If you're not familiar with a CATCH THE ACE lottery, there are weekly draws and the winner opens one of envelop.
If she/he opens the envelop with the ace of spades, she/he wins the grand prize. Each week, if the ace of spades is not revealed, the number of envelopes is reduced by one.
So, I was thinking. How many weeks until there is a 50/50 chances that the ace of spades would be revealed.
At first I assumed it would be 26 weeks. After 26 weeks, there'd have been a 50/50 chance that the ace of spades envelop would be chosen.
But I decided excel might help and I came up with the chart below which shows that after 21 weeks there would be a 50/50 chance that the ace of spades would be in the chosen envelop.
Now I KNOW that this chart is wrong but I do not know why. I'd appreciate it if you could enlighten me. And sorry for the formatting of the chart. I could not get the columns to line up with the column titles nor could I get spaces between the cells.
Here are the column headings

Hope that makes sense. The tension of trying to shorten the chains by a couple of more links means that the chain slides off the little c hook before I can use the pry bar to tighten it.
Is there a trick that I don't know about?
At the park today and a couple walked their very old dog - only a few hundred yards. It could barely move 3/4 legs, was mostly blind I think given they had to redirect it. It walked at the pace of a turtle (literally). It followed the owners who had to wait fir it. I can't imagine it wasn't in incredible pain. I was thinking it would be kinder to just let it wander on the grass. I mean it wasn't going to run away.
This was an extreme example but I wonder about dogs that obviously struggle to keep pace with their owners while leashed.
So, at what point do you feel you should stop walking your dog? If ever.
Thank you. I'd be very grateful for your insight and/or ideas. I am not committed to oak sage. I just want my lawn to look OK from the road.
Just bought a used trailer and the instruction manual talks about how to winterize but it is not clear on how to de-winterize.
Thank you.
