  1. WOW! I've had some hang gliding experience, so I would definitely love to try that.
  2. Browsed the habitat for Humanity Restore in Mississauga yesterday, they had this one for sale. Location is 4500 Dixie Road, between Eglinton and Eastgate, GPS 43.632155, -79.616572
  3. Maybe he just throttles it up to 25%.
  4. Can't write, wrist is too sore.
  5. Apparently, Pokemon Go has surpassed porn as the biggest thing on the internet. I might have to spend a few days redressing the balance. It's a tough job, but someone has to do it. Please, remember my sacrifice.
  6. I'm stealing that!

  8. School us, we'll wait...
  9. Anglers are like many people; things they take an interest in will usually receive more attention to detail. Text them to ask them where some friends are, and they might reply "THEY'RE in THEIR boat over THERE", and get all three wrong. Ask them about the colour of the plastic worm they're using, and they'll spell 'chartreuse' correctly every time.
  10. Yeah, uh, not so fast. It may be a load of manure: http://arstechnica.com/science/2016/07/that-time-a-bunch-of-journalists-confused-an-opinion-piece-for-a-study/
  11. I live just a few minute's walk from The Big M, on Liverpool Road in Pickering. Great burger joint. Hmmm... Might go for a walk...
  12. Crappy picture. (Never let it be said that I don't go for the obvious joke)
  13. You have to visit this place: http://phallus.is/en/
  14. Trump is the best choice. And if you don't believe me, ask him, he'll tell you. And tell you, and tell you, and tell you...
  15. Looking good, and best of luck!
  16. I love terns, and your photos really do them justice. Caspian terns always amuse me, a beautiful bird combined with one of the more disgusting calls ever to emanate from a syrinx. Sounds like it's being strangled while vomiting.
  17. Enforcing it would be a financial and logistical nightmare. Better to leave pedtextrians alone and let evolution take its course.
  18. Why not? If it works the same as other parks, once you rent it it's yours 24/7 until you return it. And according to the park web site, Mayflower Lake, behind the office, is stocked with rainbows.
  19. Stolen!
  20. Could have been a hog-nosed snake, Heterodon platirhinos. They frequently vibrate their tail as a defensive tactic. If that fails, they roll on their backs and play dead.
  21. I've seen videos of those, great idea.
  22. Not when I've seen him. But when I went to his Frippertronics concert he sat alone on stage, on a stool, with a single floodlight that was positioned to hit the floor about ten feet to his right.
  23. And before he bought it he was a millionaire.
  24. Not really a concert person, but I've been to a few. I always try to catch Robert Fripp whenever he's in town with whatever incarnation he's with; King Crimson, or solo, and League of Gentlemen. That last one was at The El Mocambo in 1980. Saw Pink Floyd in '87, The Who a couple of years later. Wouldn't mind seeing Arcade Fire. Can't bring myself to see The Tragically Hip on their farewell tour, it would just be too painful. But when Gord Downie passes, as he eventually will, on the first clear night after I plan on driving up to Bobcaygeon and seeing the constellations reveal themselves, one star at a time. Anyone want to join me?
