  1. I emailed a buddy of mine who is a bit of a collector and this was his reply. Not much help I suppose but an avenue to explore. Ties in with Floatman55's British Centerpin theory as well.
  2. I can see that happening, I might have the same reaction as it would be the last thing you might expect to see. A buddy of mine was in that situation and hit the car. He was charged for following to closely. I guess we all need to expect the unexpected.
  3. When getting a snapshot of the entire story in an news article, it is really difficult to make any decision without knowing all the evidence. The jury has seen this and with respect to our legal system, which is not perfect and has it's flaws, you have to leave it in their hands. Depending out the out come, I would expect an appeal would be launched. She was at fault for what she did but the motorcycle driver only slowed down about 8kph before impact. One would think that the motorcycle driver was distracted in some way. I would think that this was brought up at the trail at some point. I doubt very much she would get the maximum sentence but what she deserves, I don't know. In the end it will not right the wrong and bring the father and daughter back. A tragic event for all parties.
  4. Just let me know when you are going next and I'll text earlier in the day. I sure that's what did it. I wonder if that works when you are in the boat with me? Will have to try that on the weekend. Great to see you ended up with a few fish, nicely done.
  5. That should do ya for a while, nice ride!
  6. Congrats! Who cares about the radio, gas gauge, rear wiper... Most importantly, does it have a hitch?
  7. Congrats again on the PB Cliff!!! A great way to start off the season. If you ever lose that suick, we'll both be crying. LOL! It's sure been an incredible go to bait for you over the years that we've been fishing together. Now to break your new PB.
  8. Well if that was the point of this election, I'm OK with that. Now what year will that be when the Leafs win? Before the next provincial election? Pretty much agree with the latest comments. It just blows my mind how the people voted for such a corrupt party last night. I will accept the out come and by more lube, going to be bent over a lot in the next 4 years I'm afraid. You might be right Joe and well see them start slicing jobs and programs too. Something has to be done to get the budget under control. Higher taxes are looming I'd say.
  9. That would not surprise me at all. I've voted and have my right to complain till the next election. It would not surprise me if people toss their votes at the last minute to the NDP as they did with Bob Rae. People certainly must be done with the Liberals (for now) and for those afraid of the PC platform, how will they vote? Perhaps not at all, will be interesting to see what kind of turn out we have.
  10. I'm at a loss with all the "leaders" and have no trust in any of them. What is the lesser of the evils? Who knows but the time has come to kick the Liberals out on their . It boggles my mind though to hear that the polls are leaning towards a majority government for Kate. What the fudge are people thinking in even considering a party like that with their track record??!! I'm scratching my head on that one and holding out hope that people will come to their senses at the polls tomorrow. With things so close, a minority government might be our best option for now as I just don't trust any of them with all their empty promises. You can be guaranteed that if the Liberals lose, whoever wins will claim things to be much worse then what the Fiberals were telling us. They will also state that they will be unable to keep the promises made during the campaign until the financial mess is dealt with first. Happens every time it seems with a change in power. In answer to the OP's question, I haven't changed my mind.
  11. Great report Randy! Looks like a fantastic time was had by all.
  12. Looks like a perfect day to be out Brian. Sorry about your luck the part and hopefully it gets back to you.
  13. Looks like a sweet spot, Thanks for the report!
  14. Nothing wrong with that!! Nice day on the water for you both.
  15. The town of Haliburton has a free launch, concrete too I believe. That gives you access to a chain of 5 lakes and multiple species
  16. Fantastic news and report!!! Just amazing the efforts of all to make it such a great weekend for Sean, the smile says it all! You rock Simon!! As the time comes and his condition is improving, check out an electric reel for him and a harness to assist in holding the rod. You are probably way ahead of me on this anyways. Just a terrific story and thanks for the update.
  17. Great post Lew and many thank to all!! Will never forget what they sacrificed for us.
