  1. The Merc is a great person, and the screwdrivers aren't bad either. He delivers at night just like Santa
  2. And to the left a trout stream, Mods kill this, no specific points allowed . . lol B, YOU are the man, I have place outside Cookstown and no chocolate milk production. I have to bring my own!
  3. be yourself! I make my own wine and have been for 40+ years. (dad's idea, you are now on your own . . .) It doesn't get checked, it's a natural process; yeast, fermentation until the sugars are no longer present . . We need to live a natural life and evironment, fish, hunt, A human tradition. This tradition does not fit all, but who wants it; it should be available: anchovies on pizza, mustard on hot dogs at the ball game, walking on Lake Simcoe (12 inches of ice under your feet) Let's enjoy life while we have it. Skip one of these day I'll be on the way to see you, a Rebel you are lol.
  4. D' go for it you can win an election on wholesome milk, That .#%} nice man cost us big $s fighting that farmer who wanted to sell straight from the cow milk. When I was a kid that is all we had! Years ago we wanted to shoot a TV spot up there and all was well until the 'production crew' arrived . . . " you are going to wreck my farm" no deal, so they went and had the brown stuff. Memory flashback.
  5. Thanks Gord (and the rest of OFNrs) we had a chat this afternoon, He was very reasonable. I have never bought a full set of tires before and a long time since I actually priced tires and have been out of touch in pricing. In will follow up with him for now, but I have emailed other contacts that other members have put forward in this thread. all of you have been most helpful, thank you. Any typography problems I'm here!
  6. thanks G, I'm just a round the corner from them at work may drop in.
  7. A stunt only our mutual friends would do, just kidding. Ask Mike about John Kerr and Dave Fernie! Lew not to kill your thread it was a bear. BillM has never fished the Kowarthas lol.
  8. Thanks B, I was close last week visiting fishing buddies and after I walked through FDRs garden in Ridgeway my thoughts were there as I looked over Lake Erie. But if 'she' finds out then it will cost me more "can I come shopping" . . .
  9. A 'TUBE' steak I would presume! BillM, you kill me. Did you stash your Sutton over goodies at Lew's place?
  10. Looking for tires for my Jeep Compass - 215/60/R17 - all season or advice . . . Installed. I'm in Woodbridge. Will travel an hour or so away. I've seen posts over the years . . . Thanks A
  11. Not if he is under the coffee table keeping your feet warm.
  12. Yes merc is the man, even sent me FREE screwdrivers with my order!
  13. HH, we had the same birds at Yonge and Eglinton on the CT building (I was across from them; CCMT and my daughters worked there). They would come over to our building "for lunch" usually pigeon wings is what they left behind. lol. They were amazing to look at. I had one sit across from me on the railing at 10 pm. There are a few nesting areas in the GTA.
  14. I have exactly the same one! I could have used it for parts! Wait until BIg Cliff checks in, to use in real trouble
  15. Glad you have more tha one pair. I recall a few years back you forgot them at home while fishing with Solo!
  16. Lew, you will remember (I'm a bit younger not by much) at the conner and Mount Pleasant and Merton was the old Dominion and Coal Yard with the silos? I worked ther for 10 years. My brother a master plumber, spent many months refitting the place so they could be kept as heritage buildings, only to be torn down years later and turned into condos! He wasn't happy! My dad used to walk us from Dufferin and St Clair to Keele and Weston Road to see cattle cross St Clair and made into steaks, my dad loved cattle! being of Italian heritage they also went over to pick up manure to fertilize the gardens to grow vegetables. Not very impressive at the time but NOW we all do it, (grow our own). Anyone go to Regal Road Public School in the early 60's? a shot in the dark?
  17. Sorry, misspelled Mel Lastman and David Crombie. I've chatted with Mr. Crombie about the book a few years back as we walked down the street on our way to work! And yes he does work . . . My role was behind the scene making sure that the typography and press specs were accurate.
  18. Roy, you couldn't have said it better. We arrived in 1959. I loved the part about the 40 million in housing being built. That's about what our street is worth in Kleinburg today. I have books called Toronto one dating back to 1957 and 1988. I'm proud to say that I had a hand in producing the millenium copy (2000) Inspired by Ed Mirvish, David Cronbie and Mel Latman. Great clip, thanks.
  19. There you go, Apple plug and play. These things are like buying boats and lures everyone has an opinion/favorite. I say what ever you can affod and what ever you are comfortable with. Myself I have occasionally used PC and I can get by if need be, but an Apple product it's my boat/lure favorite. At 11, Roy will lock this for sure lol
  20. Happy Thanksgiving to all and also our American cousins, come up and try it, if you don't like you can back out of yours! On a serious note, let's remember those who are not able to celebrate due to health or other reasons or are far from loved ones. When my kids were young I always took them to the fire station to donate food for those in need. We will remember our parents who took care of us and made sure we were well guided to have a successful future. With four girls, three happily married and 4 grandkids my home will be full. Paly safe A
  21. GBW I have a two year old grand daughter who will be your neighbour Dec 14 and she scrolls through an iPod looking for movies that will make your head shake. All of them (2-4 year olds) have eyed the iPad but it's off limits. These kids make us look like we are still dialling an old rotary phone, hei I have one of those never mind . . .lol
  22. TJ owns the rights to " Jiggy Jiggy" - two are better than one.
  23. I've had and IPad for two two years now (original) This thing is great, I took it to Europe in the summer did the same things there maps, locating things . App wise anything you can imagine. I would like to upgrade with the latest because of the camera . . .And other features, using it now But then I only use Apple computers at home and work, have been since they came out.
  24. Just heard that tonight price may increase, so if you are traveling do it today if you can.
