Hey, you look familiar, didn't I meet you at our family reunion last week?

Fortunately we had no such problems with our two boys, but before the first I read up on it to be prepared and I can only advise to seek med attention for it and don't ignore it. Also, I think its only supposed to be in the first month after the baby and anything later might be something else. Spending time together cures alot of problems, and its cheaper than seeing a shrink.

On a happier note, no matter how careful we are, we all end up dead... so maybe the guys crashing thru the ice are doing things the right way, and they aren't around to speak up for themselves. As a famous skydiver once said, "I'm not afraid of dying, I'm afraid of not living"

VP station after dark, now that's a suicide wish...I'd prefer a van on Simcoe in April, at least there might be someone to help me.

I cast right, then switch hands and retrieve right as well. Don't know how common or rare that it is but its a PITA

Eugene's not complaining LOL and anything you can walk away from is good news, heckuva alot better than sitting on the bottom of Simcoe. Reasonable price is anything less than salvage recovery (which I think comes with a 'pollution' fine)

A gas station owner in Newfoundland was trying to increase his sales. So, he put up a sign that read, 'Free Sex with Fill-Up.' Soon a Newfi pulled in, filled his tank and asked for his free sex. The owner told him to pick a number from 1 to 10. If he guessed correctly, he would get his free sex. the newfi guessed 8, and the proprietor said, 'You were close. The number was 7. Sorry. No sex this time.' A week later, the newfi, along with his friend, another newfi, pulled in for another fill-up. Again he asked for his free sex. The proprietor again gave him the same story, and asked him to guess the correct number. the newfi guessed 2 this time. The proprietor said, 'Sorry, it was 3. You were close, but no free sex this time.' As they were driving away, the first newfi said to the other, 'I think that game is rigged and he doesn't really give away free sex.' the second newfi replied, 'No it ain't, . It's not rigged at all. My wife won twice last week.'

Anchor's too heavy...you know its a tough crowd when thats the complaint LOL

Obviously Cliff if you were travelling just a bit faster, this whole collision could have been avoided...

Slow news day + media = upcoming disaster of the day average tank is 50L, gas going from 1.00 per litre (which was the last 'catastrophe') to 1.50 per litre = $25.00 more in bigger cars less in smaller cars. So its funny to watch the news with anchors with serious looks...warning about a 20 buck news story.

If your really good, never mind 19, you wear #99: Wilf Paiment. Love the Leons ad LOL

Most men like fishing. Most men like hockey and other sports. Most ice huts have hockey game broadcasts. Can't think of a better link.

Brilliant opinion Ted...did you lern that in hi school or college? No Jeb, red it on the internet. They have it on computers now. Thought it was Andy Rooney, then not, its called an hoax or something like that. Look up hoax Ted and tell me what it means!!!

Unreal MP 'Sounds' like him This thread is sorta like seeing someone in a Leaf jersey and thinking they were a hockey player ...and they played on the Leafs...and you asked them for an autograph...and told everyone you were a big fan OOPS its just Bill from across the street

Andy Rooney...I got a book full of his speeches. When you read it, you might agree or disagree with him on points here and there and he does have a sense of humour...but he is mostly 'McSpeech', the Jerry Seinfeld of the news only in the "Grumpy Old Man" version. Why do they hand out peanuts on a 2 hour flight? Did you ever wonder why we can put a man on the moon but my morning bus is never on time? And whats with the mottos on licence plates? Do i really care which State is the 'Show me State' ? Who decides which one is the Constitution State? Aren't they all bound by the Constitution? Why is 220 MPH on my car's speedometer? Appeals mostly to _________ whats the politically correct term?

Balsam ditto Bass Lake near Orrilia Lake Simcoe: Mara, Mcrae Point, Sibbald Point basically any Provincial park thats classified 'recreational' is a safe bet RESERVATIONS call asap as June can be prime and campgrounds can get filled up on those parks listed above near GTA, when booking tell them you have kids and they will place you accordingly. Call asap, like today, for peace of mind.

I saw a Carlo Colaiavaco stick for sale for 300 when he was going back oand forth between the Leafs and Marlies, to give you an idea the stick alone was a 200 - 250 value so the signature added only 50 Also without a Certificate of Authenticity it would be hard to justify higher amounts.

Safest place to sit...based on fatality is by the wing...wings hold that part of the plane together, increasing your small odds of survival despite being close to the fuel, statistically the percentage dead are highest in front and back. crashpages.com and some other web sites with info for people with fear of flying (and you want daytime non-commuter rush hour flights if possible) (land crashes higher odds of survival than ocean) I don't know if the website still runs but it included deathes/km flown breakdown by airline and fatality records for cities (third world countries are the worst, Canada US is good) Air Canada has a decent record Things to consider before flying... VIA RAIL FIRST CLASS HAS AMAZING SERVICE, NOTHING LIKE TRAVELLING ON TONS OF STEEL 3 INCHES OFF THE GROUND

Kesagami's on my short list for a group trip. I haven't finished reading your report but from what I've seen so far, it has the makings of a great book. Good job.

Joe...no problem... here's a compromise...call the store and tell them to send someone with a receipt to collect payment for a jacket or whatever gizmo they forgot to ring in while you were standing in line cash in hand, it would be at my home or office at my convenience and they'd send their employee to collect their money and give me a receipt...doubt too many stores would follow up on my offer...depending on the item...wouldn't be worth the employee's time, hourly whatever plus mileage. I wouldn't return for the same reason. Going back with cash in hand, A SECOND TIME, basically values your time as 0.00 and the gas and wear and tear on your car, not worth it but they can spend the time and effort. Even when I return a defective item for a refund or exchange...I spend 10.00 get 10.00 back...my time is wasted in the translation and ends up valued as $0.00, which is poor customer service even in the 'best' stores for exchange and refunds, never mind Lebarons which has a unique journey through the gauntlets of hell before they part possession with a dime by refund.

I guess you and I are shopping alone Stoty LOL

I second the no name change, its bad luck. Even if you buy a boat from someone else and the boat has a name, you shouldn't change the name. But, if you can't live with the name someone else gave and the name change is a must, you should re-christen the boat with the new name preferably by a woman and with a bottle of champagne. 6 letter name is also bad luck

Call me a cynic, but am I the only one wondering... is it easier to post the moral high ground...with your name signed on it and lord over anyone thinking the opposite as opposed to posting on a public board that you'd keep it is it possible that in 'real' life, with nobody looking or knowing, some or most of the 'return it and pay for it' crowd might have gone on with their new vest and kept mum about it, rather than driving back to the store which made a mistake and pay... My 2 cents on it is this: I would be hard pressed to justify the time involved with driving back to the store and returning it, without any compensation for my time and inconvenience, unless it was a small ma and pa shop and I knew the owner etc I drive to the store, select merchandise and pay with a smile, and pay, the store has ample opportunity to bill me and receive payment...after that...its tough luck. And its not theft...as you need to have an intention to steal the merchandise and lining up and presenting for payment to a cashier is not an intention to steal...its an intention to pay. and, unscanned merchandise does not come out of the cashiers pocket...as the transaction on the register would match the cash received...unscanned merchandise would show up as an inventory shortage or shrinkag, as avoiding the burden being placed on the cashier might be another reason to return to the store if there is a cash discrepancy. I personally hate a certain chain store...I'd proudly keep it if it was that store, with a smile...call me whatever, and it would be the stores karma being returned to them.

for the record...those were "American" courts not Canadian LOL I find those funny but hard to believe and Oral is pretty common: I've used the 'oral' line before...witnesses shake heads or nod for yes or no, court reporter can't record answer in written transcripts as a yes or no. I'm working on defences for the rest of those gems

Now I need to find a date, someone to drive, pay for parking and buy me lunch while I'm there...LOL I do appeals Spiel...
