Starting a pool on when, next, my son is going through the ice or how long he'll last before his feet freeze It's all part of the experience.

Hard and cold?

2 CO's is but a drop in the bucket. Should have been 20. Too much money being wasted on pencil pushers and bureaucrats.

Retirement on a small secluded lake

Bucktail harness

Some bluegrass legend amongst them ruck and bobtail pickers. Can't believe he's still around.

The older the better. I've still got a few of my Grams pans. No greasing required.

My kid brother jumped off the roof thinking the snow would cushion the fall. It was messy

At the moment I'm partial to this Or some TSO

We used to make wads of cash clearing off cottage roofs up in Haliburton, decades back, when fewer people were as eager to open their cottages in winter.

For those of us old enough to remember. Remember "metrification". the government promised that things would be simplified, and any change in volumes would be reflected in new pricing. We went from buying a quart, to a litre, which is .14 less, but paid the same. Next lie. Wage and price controls in the 70's. During that recession, and runaway inflation, the government was going to apply the brakes evenly to stop the economy from stalling. The only controls were on wages. Prices kept on rising regardless of the consumers complaints. Face it folks. Politicians were bought and paid for decades back, and don't care for the general public's best interest. Their interest is the best interest of those that bought them.

I'm sorry but, Durham region's goon mentality goes back a number of decades and was as well known as the Cherry Beach express. Nothing has changed.

Like the carton. Good pair of articles on winter perching.

Support your local underground economy and save yourself some money. Deprive the government of those dollars whenever possible.

I'll see your "Humbug", and raise you a "God Bless You"

Time to enjoy, and share, the good things we have and forget about the nastiness around us for a couple of weeks. Santa has been busy in the kitchen. Have a cookie on me. (you're on yer own fer the rum and nog) Still have to find me a fish cookie cutter.

I found me a couple of new honey holes. I also learnt how bad old bait smells when left in the back of the van for a few weeks. The bag of smelts was liquified by the time I found them

I don't think red is a great 'morning after' colour Glad you got fast action on the boat Corv 1. You had a good boat and the folks here are serious and, to my knowledge, pretty honest.

If they don't get enough out of the consumer this time, they'll just start taxing groceries next. Either way the consumer bleeds.

Venison summer sausage.... Droooooooooooooooooooooooooool. Now I'm hungry

I would like to go for a Florida tarpon expedition ,but I'd want the grand slam with a snook and redfish .

Glad to hear that Sue is improving. Take good care of yourselves. Quality people are few and far between in this world.

Don't see how a lot of businesses benefit when the consumer has less to spend. Thankfully there is an underground economy.

Wait one more night for that extra inch.

Nuthin but rain since 3am. Got me a drip along the seem of the main house and the back addition
