ugh, was meaning to get it the past few weeks...procrastinated, sure enough last thursday riding the sardine packed streetcar to work, buddy beside me hacking and coughing away...by late friday night i start feeling like garbage and I am now still trying to recover. Missed 3 days of work this week, and now im starting to suffer from vertigo which i imagine is due to an inner ear problem associated with the congestion ive been having. Still nowhere near as bad as the flu that i caught last year where to this day I am sure that if i wasnt 25 years old and healthy that I probably could have died. It was so bad that I passed out 3 times just trying to make it to the bathroom. Although ive already had the flu I will be sure to get the shot once i get better. I spoke with my uncle (a doctor) and he told me that he gets it every single year. The whole "fear mongering" is Bull

Dad.......is there enough snow to try my new skidoo?
AKRISONER replied to limeyangler's topic in General Discussion
hahaha this reminds me of the first year we owned our family cottage and dad purchased 2 shiny new sleds, only problem is that it was a warm year then...I remember waking up one morning and the years first snowfall dusting had fallen. The grass was still sticking up through it, next thing i hear from out in the yard is the familiar BRAP BRAP BRAP, theres the old man ripping the new MXZ on the 2 inches of snow and my mom out on the back deck yelling BRIAN YOU ARE DESTROYING THE GRASS! -
As much as the rumour is that Smoking is a revenue generator, in a country with free healthcare, the million dollar cancer treatments far far far out spend the revenue collected from tax on smokes. It is true about taxing the extra 2 bucks on the fee though. But 2 bucks to fish, id personally pay $200 if it came down to it. I also agree that I would be willing to pay hundreds more if it meant that i saw more CO's nailing the guys taking slot fish and running over limits.

A pre-requisit for driving and having a license in my family is being able to change a tire. My mom said before she was ever allowed to drive a car she had to learn how to change a tire. I subsequently have taught my girlfriend the process as well and she is now entirely capable.

personally a 2 dollar fee means nothing. If someone literally complains about this but then goes and buys a 400 dollar fishing rod, they should be slapped. Personally i fees for fishing were much higher to deter poaching and overfishing. I am all for introducing the sport to as many people as possible, however there are too many "catch and kill" fishermen out there.

really cool article, using a <70 flex stick is ridiculous. even for a bush league mens leaguer

That first Kessel Goal though, how many players in the league can score like that, Im saying 2...Ovi being the other one? any other players out there with shots like that.

as the saying goes, if you are going to spend money on anything on a car, brakes and tires are what you should be spending the most money on. Meanwhile the cheapest tires and brakes are what everyone constantly looks for. Need to get my winters mounted still, but the pickerels are calling this weekend so I might have to push it one more week on the AS. SKETCHYYYY

Provincial Bait Policy Review for public comment
AKRISONER replied to Lunker Larry's topic in General Discussion
im blown away by the fact that they allow commercial bait harvesting in Provincial parks. -
Blaze hunters orange and its not problem, it is "crown" land after all, meaning that if you are a resident, then you have as much right as anyone to be there.

Serious question here, why is today not a national day of remembrance, or at least a half day. Its a total shame that the government doesn't recognize that every Canadian should be at a cenotaph today remembering those that served. I am at least lucky enough that I can watch the old war planes fly by over city hall in Toronto from my office. Lest we forget
-
can we all just take a moment to laugh at the fact that ottawa is the only canadian team in the entire league that gets out cheered at home. Youd think you were watching a game in florida or Buffalo by the way the crowd sounded lol! Pathetic excuse for a Canadian hockey franchise.

HA! That is all I have to say.

love watching the jig and then hookset, frigging awesome video.

when you said "feeling helpless not being able to help your kids out" this really hit home and makes me really reflect on all that my father does for me. as us young hip-hop enthusiasts would say "lifes ill" Best of luck I hope everything works out just fine for your whole family.

A smoking question,not fish smoking. UPDATE NOV 05 14
AKRISONER replied to misfish's topic in General Discussion
Brian as a lifelong non smoker (ive never smoked a ciggarette in my entire life), perhaps you now understand where non smokers are coming from when it comes to us complaining about ciggarettes. For some of us (me included) it actually really makes it difficult to breath, and the smell alone even at 50 yards away is a bit offensive. Working in Toronto you can imagine how bad it sucks having to walk through a cloud of choking smoke at every single building's entrance way, the smoke literally chokes me to a point that I have to hold my breath just to walk inside. Im all for people's rights and stuff, but i hear the same story a lot, once people quit they realize just how gross it is. Im glad to hear you are on your way to a healthier wealthier life. -
keep fighting the good fight! To a speedy recovery!

Hey Guys, I am currently undergoing a project of installing a Powerdrive on a tinner as well. Does anyone have any suggestions on a circuit breaker for the line? I unfortunately only have the plug side of the motor so I am going to have to make my own power line. I can personally vouch for Optima Batteries. The yellow or blue deep cycle marine batteries are bullet proof, and you can get them from walmart for a decent price!

in other weirdness this will be the second time seeing the sabres play in a 10 day span...The fact I am even watching NHL hockey live is strange never mind 2 weeks in a row, i guess when it rains it pours.

Lupes has ran into more bad luck than any guy on the team. His broken arm the other year was from a shot that deflected and shattered a bone, then he trips on a stick and breaks his hand. The guy is just really unlucky. Itd be one thing if its a naggin knee or concussion issues, but breaking bones from tripping or getting hit with a puck, theres not much you can do there. The leafs need to play better than they did in the 3rd if they want to survive. You cant let 27 shots a period and expect to win very often. You take the 2 points and focus on what you did right in periods 1 and 2...i think they were lucky in period 3. In other news I just got tickets to go see the oilers in Buffalo Friday. The first time i get to see my second fave team play (yes i like to pain a lot, im an oilers and leafs fan)

the problem doesnt lie in immigration, it comes in the screening process. The large majority of immigrants come here so that they can work and raise families in a system that is not entirely corrupt and allows them to create a decent life for their children. If you want to see where the true problem lies, its canadian's that sit in public and affordable housing claiming that they have a right to live in government subsidized housing while not working. Every person that says "affordable housing is a right" they are dead on, shelter is a basic human need so i better see them on the first bus up to Flin Flon to go work at the mine and buy some affordable houses.

its called playing in Florida. Toronto is an offensive powerhouse, they just cant play D. Florida has 12 GF this season, Toronto has 25...
