While watching the Andy Griffith show tonight a commercial for East Village Insurance in Vancouver BC Canada came on. Did a web search for the company and found this video clip.

Looks like someone there is a fan of petro products.

looks like Hastings St has cleaned up a bit, it used to be heroin central back in the day.

Parts of it still are. Those areas are commonly referred to as "skid row".

Some believe the term Skid Row originated in Vancouver.

Hastings Street also has $300,000+ condos.

Vancouver can be a very expensive place to live.

$200-$400 a month just for a weekday daytime parking spot.

I moved away from it four years ago.

I think the spirit of DB made me do that. Except for the smiley.

I seen that and thought about editing it. It's something to do with my computer that makes changes as I'm typing the text. If you look at my posts, I always edit within minutes of posting to undo changes made.
