I want to see the pic RO.

Sure, anything for my "saviour".

Now I know you are only supposed to post if you are going but Leslie and I are interested. Can you rent a boat there?

Yeah, that is the real money shot.

I'm working on my wife...she could so hardcore.

Kesagami Lodge was featured in the summer issue of Ontario Out of Doors Magazine. Looks like Ramble On's mug is front and center!

Naw you don't suck at fishing. General rule, the further north you go from an imaginary drawn across from North Bay to Sudbury, the better. A lodge far away from any town is nice. A lake with no road access is very good. A lake with no one else fishing it is best, don't forget to also ask about native fishing pressure. There is something to be said for flyins. The more fishing pressure a lake gets the harder it is to fish. Guys with boats and trailers from Toronto don't generally want to drive 8 hours north and spend the last 20 miles on crappy dirt roads.

2nd general rule, late spring-early summer, is the best time to go.

Somebody looks happy!

OK here it Goes. Don't preach to me on anything that effects you school children nowadays. Apparently your Hero Al Gore's movie seems to have infiltrated our schools and our gullible young including you without even an examination to the facts. As far as teachers go, most might be book smart but a lot don't have any common sense or knowledge outside their Environment or their personal views. I find the most stubborn people are Environmentalists as well as Teachers. Its too bad that everything that we older people have done has been wrong all these years. Everything from the environment, your health, your society, your country, even your upbringing. Its all been wrong hasn't it... Poor little Scuro. Ill say it again, if your so concerned,

 

YOU can stop driving, pay for an expensive hybrid if you have to

YOU can pay a carbon Tax,

YOU can go Neked because production of clothing causes Carbon

YOU can pay extra for food,

YOU can pay an environmental tax for purchases of TVs, Computers, Fridges etc.

YOU can pay extra for home heating,

YOU can pay extra at the pumps,

YOU can pay the increase in Transported goods,

YOU can pay for the Idiots that want to save the Polar bears,

YOU can vote for a weak Idiot that cant talk and looks like a 90 lb weakling that wants to punish the Wests economy of which is Natural Resources are now keeping this country above water because he is a loser out here.

 

In the mean time I'm not buying your crap and I'm hoping all this blows over because, since YOU have been sucked into this Crap, Ive been paying for it. Tell me this though since you have all the answers, since Ive been paying for all this crap, how come I still got to get rid of my TVs, Freezers and pay for it? How come Oil has gone down 30% but not a cent at the pumps, How do you explain adding another tax to Oil Companies, Home Heating, Mining, Diesel is not going to effect me, BUT CUT DOWN on the WORLDS CARBON EMISSIONS

 

Explain all that to me Sherlock!!!!! But I,ll tell ya what, thanks to sucks like you and a whole lot others, WE ARE GETTING RIPPED OFF. So preach somewhere else

Get a grip buddy, you don't own the forum so what right do you have to tell me to do anything?

All this malarkey has been only recorded in the past 40 years so every thing is theory at this time. Like I said if your so worried stop driving. I for myself is not worried. So I'm still going to drive to work and provide for my kids. Like I said, whenever the Economy is doing good all the tree Huggers start buying chains and nails and smoking Dope listening to singer want to be"s and university monkeys with the gift of gab. Yea I know your hero Mr Dress up wants to make it his Election Platform but like him its weak because the Economy is in the forefront now. In the 60s and 70s you had Nuclear War, 70s and 80s Acid Rain, 90s Global warming, now its Climate Change and Polar Bears. In the mean time I'm blaming all the increases in food and Products to greed and the Environmentalists. Now go Collect Wolf Scat and tell me the Wolves are being endangered to whatever is next and do me a favor and start plugging up all the volcanoes. One last thing, quit smoking because your polluting my air.

-It's an event that hasn't happened in 125,000 years.

-The larger trends seem to fall in 100,000 year blocks.

-Three of the years with the greatest amount of ice melting has happened in the last 4 years.

-If more ice melts we will be getting way beyond the regular parameters of the larger cycle.

-If the whole Arctic ice cap melts, that would be an event that hasn't happened in 50 million years.

The above is not "malarkey" so stop with the ridicule. Scientists can demonstrate these facts. When we look at these particular facts it creates one piece of evidence in the global warming case. Now if ever greater melting on north pole stops or reverses itself, then one could say the polar cap melting does not go beyond the extremes in variation. If on the other hand we see more melting we are getting beyond the extreme ranges of natural occurances. If it all melts, well then whoooaaa...something that hasn't happened in 50 million years has occured and that can't be explained by natural variation or causes.

So lets drop the subject. Lets wait until next summer and see is this strong trend continues, stops, or reverses itself.

Seems to me that what you are saying is that the climate can and does change for brief periods due to natural causes. Kinda knocks the wind out of the argument that becuase the current change is happening in a short period of time that it must be due to "unnatural causes",ie must be due to human activities.

That was the whole point of the initial post. It's an event that hasn't happened in 125,000 years. Natural cycles?....may be. We have little warming and cooling trends which we have blown past. The larger trends seem to fall in 100,000 year blocks. Are we going beyond that block of time? Three of the years with the greatest amount of ice melting has happened in the last 4 years. One can't deny that there is a very strong trend happening here and scientists predict that it will all melt in a generation, may be less time. If more ice melts we will be getting way beyond the regular parameters of the larger cycle. If the whole Arctic ice cap melts, that would be an event that hasn't happened in 50 million years.

I just wanted to point this out. No need to debate this. It doesn't look like minds are being changed. Each summer gives us a new yardstick. Let's wait and see what happens. If I find data for other unique climatic events I'll post that too.

I have been charmed....enchanted...bedeviled. You put a spell on me. What was I supposed to doing tonight? Some of us are always searching and it looks like you found Nirvana, and with your wife to boot! I thought you couldn't enter heaven as a couple.

The Char ....the Char ...beaut photos...great narrative, detail...and then in the middle of the story, one great big belly laugh.

I took a taste and could see how they (Bake Apples) might have been good for some people, very much like a mushy apple-raspberry I had just the one, then remembered I don't eat fruit.

Yeah, I read a paper about that recently in THe Journal of New England Medicine, seems that wallops of lard and ascorbic acid create a very toxic byproduct....I fully understand bro!

Beauty of a fish. I like not seeing any blood on her.

That is a NICE fish and I don't see any blood on the fish. But NH's shirt and pants indicate a definite wound. Fish wound or NH wound?

Simply I wanted only to bring to your attention to a climatic event that hasn't happened in over 125,000 years...perhaps longer. That was it, and I asked for no comment. But if we are discussing this then let me add my two cents worth.

It is noteworthy if an event happens once in a lifetime. For instance the most powerful natural explosion in recent Earth history happened a hundred years when a meteor exploded above Tunguska Russia. The resulting explosion was estimated to be 1,000 times greater than the atomic bomb dropped over Hiroshima. Scientists estimate that such a meteor will strike the earth every 100 years. Now magnify that time frame by 1250 percent out to 125,000 years. What would be the biggest meteor to strike the earth in that time frame? I'm guessing it would be a much more noteworthy and spectacular event. So the north pole is an ice island for the first time 125,000. Can this be explained by other possibilities?...sure but there probably is a reason this happened. Now how about if all the ice melts over the north pole? That hasn't happened in 50 million years. Can that be explained away. Well, it would get more difficult and for sure there has got to be a reason. How about if we have other climatic measurements which are just as noteworthy? Now you have a real problem explaining them away with climatic variables. There really has to be a catalyst for that. How do they build the case for global warming? They take these unique events such as the north pole being an ice island for the first time in 125,000 years, and they show there is significant change happening. They have done that and the theory which best fits all the change happening around us is global warming.

Can you believe I actually did a science project on the coming ice age? I advanced to the regionals with that beaut. How did they make their case for that theory? That theory was based on patterns. The earth goes through natural warming and cooling phases. We are long overdue for a major cool phase. The pattern told us an ice age was imminent. Yet, there was no unique and significant climatic events to support this theory. See the difference?

North Pole is an island for the first time in over 125000 years.

We have had this debate, but I think it is important to bring new and unique climate events to light. I'm happy if no one posts and people simply draw their own conclusions.

Compare the years 1979 and 2003 to the image of this year on the link provided below.

The pictures, produced by Nasa, mark the first time in at least 125,000 years that the two shortcuts linking the Atlantic and Pacific oceans have been ice-free at the same time.

Perhaps if you give us some background, it may actually help with the recovery of the dog. When, where, how, and what date did you lose this dog?

That's gotta be one of the best reports so far. Stunning landscapes, loads of fish, different species, some real honkers....and lots of smiles. Good one on ya all: Drew, Dan, Rich, Pat, and Wayne. I gotta get to that lake.....

Most people land salmon at the side of a boat. Try landing a large one on a river!

What parent has never been exasperated by youth? Somehow the whole 11 rules just seems more palpable when we think that the rules came from the quiet and highly successful Bill Gates who finally spoke his mind at a high school. Truth is Gates had nothing to do with the 11 rules and I suspect that it was American conservatives who sold this bill of goods under false advertising. More on the real author of the 11 rules below.

Charles Sykes, the true author of the 11 rules, is a conservative radio talk show host in Milwaukee. He is the author of several books, including PROFSCAM, THE HOLLOW MEN, A NATION OF VICTIMS, DUMBING DOWN OUR KIDS, and THE END OF PRIVACY.

Bellow is a blog that gives an example of his writing style on body types.

http://www.the50rules.com/Blog/tabid/3431/...90/Default.aspx

Hollywood’s enthusiasm for hyper-skinniness has led to something called the “lollipop look,” in which a celebrity is so emaciated that her head looks too large for her bony body. But don’t make the mistake of thinking that this skeletal look is either normal, or glamorous, unless your definition of “glamour” includes starvation, bingeing and purging, gastric bypass surgery, and other debilitating and wasting diseases. And never make the mistake of confusing the celebrity body image with how real people’s bodies actually look. This may be difficult to realize because yours may be the first generation in the history of mankind to pass through adolescence without seeing anyone naked in person. The key words here are “in person,” because of course you can access a hundred thousand nude pictures with the click of a mouse. But at least you’ve been sheltered from ever having to see a naked classmate in the shower after gym class. Apparently, that’s just too much reality for you to handle. It was not always so. For generations, group showering was just a part of life, a routine that emphasized basic hygiene, common sense, and the reality of puberty: if you didn’t shower you’d stink. It was also an early reality check: we learned that bodies weren’t perfect, that they came in various sizes, stages of growth, and variations. This sort of knowledge actually is useful, especially when it comes to deciding what’s normal and what is freak of nature. But some years ago the geniuses who run your school decided that no matter how sweaty or rancid you might be, you wouldn’t have to take showers after gym class. Eventually that idea spread to a lack of showering after any athletic event – which, in spite of deodorants and body sprays, leads to some very long and ripe rides home on the team bus. Of course, this insulation from real-world nakedness means your generation has to get its notions of the human body from such reliable and trustworthy sources as Hollywood, magazines, and the internet. And grownups wonder why so many young women are obsessed with looking like Keira Knightley. Unfortunately, millions of your peers look at super-thin stars like Mary-Kay Olsen or Lara Flynn Boyle and think they are normal. The rest of us think, “get those girls a milkshake, a cheeseburger, anything.”...

Great report but where is the Kesagami guide report!!!?

The "charm" of this board is that while the medium is new, the viewpoints held by those in power are anachronistic. No doubt you will see comments about your idea stating: we like it the way it is. After that there will be a round of follow up back slapping posts. Your idea will be tossed in the garbage bin, as many have been previously. You have now become a member of the, I made a suggestion to improve the board and got shotdown! or IMASTITBAGS for short.

Rule #12 There is a sucker born every minute

http://www.hoax-slayer.com/bill-gates-speech.shtml

However, the rules were neither written nor spoken by Bill Gates, they did not originate as a high school speech, and they are not at all recent. In fact, the current incarnation of these rules is a somewhat abridged version of an original piece that was penned by author Charles J. Sykes.

Awesome report...enjoyed reading it. Congrats on the marriage.

Some nice fish!

See what happens when you freebase.

4 pound test....geesh. You would have to play that fish to death to land it. I have noticed that salmon that appear to be worn out kick it up another gear when they see the end coming....either your feet or boat side. May be a 40 minute fight instead of 25 is the ticket.
