  1. I've seen them in the woods out behind my place too and did a bit of reading on them. Sounds like they can be a pretty nasty critter and one article I read said their one of the few animals that'll kill a porcupine.
  2. Just curious as to what problems you had with leaving your batteries on a cement floor Skipper ??
  3. Speaking of Lowrance service, where are they located now ?? They used to be on Matheson in Missisauga but evidentely they've moved from that location.
  4. Sheeesh, by 4:19 I was thinking of lunch
  5. Sounds like a fun day boys !! Keep pluggin away Cliff and that 50"er will be yours one day I'm heading out on Tuesday, maybe to Pigeon.
  6. Thanks for the tale Mike & congrats to Jade, she's having a great year with the muskies.
  7. I went over a piece of wood about 7 years ago and a drywall screw went thru the sidewall. I took it to the dealer where I bought the truck and was told they could patch or plug the tread section of a tire but weren't allowed to do any repairs on a sidewall.
  8. Couple years back I was looking to buy a new troll motor and checked both places. LeBarons was about $25 cheaper and when I asked BPS if they'd match it they told me "nope, we don't do price matching", so LeBarons got my business. I've heard from others since then that BPS does indeed do price matching, so perhaps they should let ALL their staff know, specially the guys who are talking to customers on the phone.
  9. Muskies are all I ever fish for and I'm yet to find a nicer spot for them than the West Arm of Nippissing. You can fish up there all day and even if you get skunked, you've still spent the day looking at some of the prettiest scenery you'll ever find anywhere. And to me, that's what it's all about !!
  10. Thanks MB, reading your fishing tales is always a great way to start my day.
  11. I don't have the actually vest in my hands yet, just the notice telling me it's at the post office and I'll be picking it up in the morning. I upgraded from my original choice and went with the Mustang MD3153
  12. Seems like all orders come from the Montreal store Brian. And your right Davey, their prices are good, in fact one Mustang I looked at from CTC was $50 more than LeB's BIG differences compared to a few years ago Joey.... for the better.
  13. I ordered a new PFD from LeBarons in Montreal on Monday afternoon and it arrived in the mail this morning. Pretty good service in my books
  14. Big fat fish, well done !! I was in that exact spot 13 days ago but that large girl just didn't want to come out and play that day
  15. I think a garage is like a boat, as soon as you figure out what size you need, add a few more feet to it all around. No such thing as too much space
  16. Congrats on the fish Steve and good job on taking the extra effort for the revival.
  17. Some of the lumber and building centers sell prefabbed garages that you put up yourself after the pad has been poured. Don't know if their any cheaper or not but may be worth looking into. As for the insulation, it'll be much easier to put it in now during construction, then if you decide to install a furnace later on your already ahead of the game.
  18. Absolutely Roy, I've been storing my boat/trailer on jacks for years.
  19. Your best to refill the lower unit in the fall Davey, that way if there is any water in there it'll be removed and then no worries about freezing.
  20. I've had a moustache for 40 years, if I was to shave it off my daughter wouldn't know me and my wife would wonder who the heck was sitting across from her at supper time
  21. There is NO emergency serious enough that anyone should be endangering the lives of others while responding to it. It's often necessary to get to an incident in a hurry, but you still need to drive in a manner where your totally in control of your vehicle. No matter what the emergency may be, 120 MPH would be totally uncalled for unless your on a totally empty hiway.
  22. Sorry Dave, there's a BIG difference between making a mistake and being a danger to everybody else on the road. That hiway in the video was very busy and that guy could have very easily wiped out an entire family. 120 MPH is FAR from making a mistake !!
  23. If anyone in the Peterboro area is looking for either red or blue Stabil, the CTC on Chemong road still has quite a bit in stock. I was in there this morning and picked some up.
  24. Great job on the carvings Geoff, too bad about the neighborhood bozo's though !!
  25. That's the one Dann and thanks very much.
