hmmmm, sounds interesting, maybe give it a try next time.

As long as I get my pineapple, anchovies, mushrooms and onions, the Mrs can add whatever she want to it.

Been snowing over here all day and we've got 4-5" of VERY heavy snow. All the evergreens are hanging low with the weight and I won't be surprised if they bring down some power lines tonight.

I couldn't see the picture a few minutes ago but I can now. Pretty crazy rig that dood is casting

Some things are worthy of a ticket Dave, but NOBODY could agree with giving a man a ticket for a blown light bulb, specially when he had the new one right in the car with him and showed it to the cop writing the ticket. Even is he beats the charge...which I'm sure he will...the man is still out a bunch of $$$$ from work, plus all his inconvenience. Certainly has nothing to do with you, but this thing is a total farce.

Very well said Brian, specially the part about our already overloaded courts. Get rid of some of these ridiculous charges and make room in the courts for the important stuff. And also as I said way back at the beginning of this post, the boss cop at whatever station this poor excuse for a traffic cop works out of should be notified of what's going on with her. Wonder how many other innocent people she's harrassed before this ??

Great to see you guys still doing it Dave

Of course it has to be working, nobodies contesting that, but lightbulbs DO burn out and we have to be given a chance to replace them. A burnt out bulb doesn't make us criminals.

Maybe check with the city cause if the tree causing the problems is on their side they may take care of the repairs for you.

And isn't that a complete farce !!!!!! A man does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG and is actually getting ready to fix the stupid bulb like he's sposed to, yet he's still gonna forfeit a days pay. If I was the judge I'd make the dopey cop with no more smarts than a fence post reimburse his lost money plus pay the court costs too. Jeeez, I don't usually get riled up but this kinda crap needs to stop !!!!!

So what's his next move Dave, so he doesn't have to pay that ridiculous ticket plus lose a days pay in court ??

Going to court is gonna cost a days pay too. This whole thing is a crock and should never have happened. Not many things worse than a punk cop on a power trip.

VERY impressive job on those trucks Skipper, REALLY nice !!!!

You could very well be right, I didn't get his name but he treated me like I was the most important customer they had, fixed up my problem in a couple minutes and had me on my way again. He'll do well wherever he works !!

I'd be taking the ticket plus the bill of sale for the new light and heading straight to the cop shop to talk to whoever is in charge. Nobody has any control over when a light will burn out and I can't see any way you should have been charged. That cop needs to be raked over the coals by her boss. Used to be a time when you were given 24 hours to fix stuff like that and then just take the car in so the cop can see it was repaired.

Good to see you back Guy, been wondering where you & Shorty got to.

Not too many Brian but every now & then one wanders thru the yard. I posted this picture a couple weeks back but he's the only buck I've seen this year. It was nice here last evening just at sunset when I looked out the back window and there were 2 does and a youngun only 50' from the house and then they hung around the yard for about 10 minutes. Would been nice to get a picture but I didn't want to spook them. Neighbor down the road told my wife the other day that she watched a wolf take down and kill a deer on Clear Lake right in front of her place.

There ya go.

Can't help you with the ice fishing info Buckster, but I can tell you that there's 3 good fishing poles and a whack of tackle and related odds & ends laying on the bottom from when myself, my dad and my bro rolled a boat over on that lake about 40 years ago. Ah yes, the good ole days :lol:

I'm trying to figure out why were always talking about American politics

And I've got a deer in the backyard Brian, but she's only for lookin at

I think your right in the ballpark Bruce, my neighbor has a 16 footer and he pays about $600/year at Burliegh Falls for nothing more than a dock.

Well done Mike, that's a great looking boat and on the cold rainy miserable days you'll be very happy you went with the full windshield and canopy...and your family will thank you too !!

I was in the Mississauga office a few years back and the fella that served me was actually a member of this board but I can't remember his name now. If he's still around it'd be good if he could chime in with some info on what's happening.

Don't know the prices but you can try Emerald Ilse Marine at the s/e corner of Upper Buckhorn, or maybe Gannons Narrows Marine at Gannons Narrows.
