John,
Kia was not on
my list of cars
that I gave in the last E-mail I sent you. I’m not sure whether or not I would ride in a Kia
after I told you that they are another cheap Korean manufacture. I already know that I’ll
probably never ride the Canada Line seeing how it was made so cheap compared to the Expo and
Millennium skytrain lines including the fact that the cars that will run on the Canada Line are
being manufactured by Hyundai. I already detailed you in the E-mail I sent you on Tuesday
Jan.15,2008 about why I think that the Expo and Millennium lines sound more reliable, because
the Canada Line (or anything else that was made cheaper than Expo and Millennium lines)
will break down more often and will be more likely to break down. I don’t want to have to be
stuck waiting after my train breaks down especially because I frequently have to visit the
washroom. And I also said in the same previous E-mail that if they don’t implement a duplicating
bus route between downtown Vancouver and route 351’s future terminus in North Richmond, then I
might have to start taking the route 321 up King George to the Expo skytrain line and then take
the Expo Line into Vancouver.
I remember you said when you were here yesterday that you think Lorne should try to look for
another client who is comfortable with morning visits. Mornings might not’ve been a problem for
myself if I didn’t lose my confidence in doing bus trips seeing how morning was the time of day
when I liked to do them. When Amir worked with me, he’s the male worker who I had before Carol
worked with me, I did a bus trip with him every week and he usually came in the morning. It also
depends if I want a longer bus trip including going out for lunch, this would mean coming home
in mid or late afternoon depending on how far away we went and I don’t know if Lorne would’ve
been able to stay with me that late. I remember Amir only had a few hours with me every week and
so whenever we did bus trips we didn’t have time to do much other than go out for lunch and then
we’d have to come back right after lunch because we didn’t have time to spend doing other
things.
I wouldn’t want to live in that yellow rancher on 142nd Street that’s still for sale. Even
though you said that it has three bedrooms, it’s still smaller than the house we’re in now and I
would also have to listen to the noise of the traffic that goes by everyday going to and from
the elementary school. And remember that the other house that we saw up for sale yesterday on
our walk is for sale by a guy named Todd Antifaev? His son is Ben Antifaev who went to school at
H T Thrift elementary at the time when Carol was working there, and Ben is very autistic.
I just don’t think it’s right that someone who Carol knows has a house
for sale on my street while she is not working with me. If she was
still working with me now however and we were to go for a walk in my neighbourhood, we might
walk by the house that’s for sale by Todd Antifaev and then this would be something that I could
share with her.
See you in Port Coquitlam at 1PM on Thursday.
-Neil
