  1. I know crazy people who would pay good money for a ride like this. Okay, so, I might be one of them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=andF0aEqpi0
  2. Nice shots. Beautiful bird, with one of the ugliest calls ever. Sounds like someone being strangled while they're vomiting.
  3. Okay, I'll spray it on myself and go nude. I grew up in the 60s, I fear no chemical!
  4. jerks should be dragged out of their offices and made to swim the length of the river. It's time for what some have called 'corporate capital punishment'. Companies committing heinous crimes such as this would immediately be taken away from those in charge and placed under government control. If they are found guilty, they would not be allowed to have their jobs back, and all normal compensation (retirement benefits, 'golden handshakes', etc.) would be forfeited. The company would continue to run, workers would still have jobs, and sooner or later a buyer would be found, or new management would move up the ladder.
  5. Spray all your clothing with this stuff: http://www.neverwet.com/ I plan on trying it.
  6. Sometimes, being crazy is the only thing that keeps us sane.
  7. Quick question: is he for rent? I'll pay with candy and milkshakes.
  8. Way cool pictures. Hey, any landing you can walk away from...
  9. He looks proud, and he has every reason to be!
  10. Weslemkoon, 45.0352,-77.429581
  11. With the number of wannabe comedians on this board, I'm surprised nobody has yet suggested 'aircraft'.
  12. Beauty shots! Never tried myself, should do one day. Back in '88-'89 I worked at a camera store, and every year around Canada Day, Simcoe Day, and Labour Day, we would get someone at the counter with the same old question: "Do I need a really powerful flash to take pictures of fireworks?"
  13. Thread revival! I was thinking of getting in there next week I know there a portage of about 45 metres from George lake to Freeland, but from the map I can't tell what it's like to get from Freeland to Kakakise. It looks like it's just a paddle up a weedy river, without portages. Am I correct, or will we be in for some plodding?
  14. If they keep pulling back the protection, how soon will it be before the Cuyahoga catches fire again?
  15. http://homeguides.sfgate.com/replant-wild-strawberry-67877.html
  16. You're asking a guy with a black thumb. I'll try Googling...
  17. ... I would snag it irretrievably on the first cast. Couple o' hundred bucks on the bottom of the lake: http://www.strike-cam.com/
  18. Yup, but peppermint is.
  19. Here's a link to a brief run-down on what you need to know: NOTE: boiling the water actually increases the level of the toxin http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2014/08/03/3467068/toledo-ohio-water-crisis/
  20. The intersection of 35 and Government Dock Road is here: 44.727225,-78.80969 Keep driving down it and you should see a boat launch sign where Pine Ridge Rd. cranks to the right.
  21. My in-law's place up at Horseshoe is surrounded by them, one of these days I'll transplant some into our yard.
  22. Perhaps, but they leave a sour taste in my mouth.
