  1. I've seen dozens of these ghost riding videos, for some reason they always end the same.
  2. In all fairness, Molson owns Coors now I believe. I got moosehead all ready to go!
  3. Been wearing my Team Canada shirt all day, can't wait! [begin Rant] Also, Eh' O' Canada Go is a terrible terrible cheer! Two reasons: 1) It sounds stupid. Eh' is to end a sentence not begin and I wouldn't be caught ever saying it in public. 2) Realize Pepsi isn't even an Olympic Sponsor they are just trying to cash in on everyone here. [End Rant]
  4. Yea there are only 2 entrances in the arena. They need to open the doors earlier.
  5. Yea they released a press release about that a few days ago (At least that's when I read it). They claim it's because of the amount of garbage left behind from ice fishing the costs are too great for them to carry and the public has to pay for it. There are other places in the area you can go for free mind you.
  6. That's a great video, thanks for sharing. Wife and I planned to go originally, but we felt it was just too cold out to take our 4 month old.
  7. Broke my wrist a couple years ago playing baseball... wasn't fun but once the swelling went away things were a lot better. ...and OMG that's one hell of a staple job, just looking at it makes my crotch hurt for some reason.
  8. If a landlord allows dogs in an apartment building, he obviously doesn't give a crap about his tenants nor his property. Have you talked to other residents of the building? Your best bet to get something changed is to have other tenants complain to the landlord with you. He won't like to deal with multiple complaints at once and will more than likely follow up on it.
  9. The thing is, they ARE sold out. It's people simply deciding not to go, busy holiday times for crap games against latvia, swiss, etc. can do that. If the opening game was against the US every game after probably would be packed imo. For the tourny opener, any CHL team would provide a more entertaining match up against Team Canada than Latvia. If the IIHF wants to keep these low ball teams in a world class tournament, they should at least throw in a 10 goal mercy rule to save some embarassment.
  10. I work from home, I started fishing just a couple years ago to get out of here and I just love the peacefulness. About an hour in to each session I open the thermas and just love that 5 min tea break in the middle of no where. Can't beat it.
  11. Sad to watch such a beautiful beast take his last breath. (Obviously a non-hunter's perspective).
  12. 1. A Christmas Carol (I've seen like 10 different versions, it's just a good story all around) 2. Home Alone 3. Christmas Vacation
  13. Wow I'm very sorry to hear. I'm more than aware of dog problems and I know the hard times and decisions that have to come with it. I've spent more money than I'd like to mention on my dog and have come close to saying I simply can't afford it. I hope everything goes well today and just brace yourself for what's to come. The procedure will hopefully give relief to her and after a few days she'll become completely comfortable with her new self. Dog's are part of the family, we all know that. Take care!
  14. Is there a reason the eye would have to be removed? Can it spread to the other eye? My dog who was blind in both eyes (had the light blue tinge over both) kept both her eyes..
  15. I had a dog that had diabetes and went blind (both eyes). We gave her 2 insulin shots everyday and eye drops for the first while. We thought we had to put her down by the 3rd day after she went blind because she was walking in to everything and looked miserable. The next day she woke up and ran laps around the house (as long as you didn't move a chair). She lived super happy for 2 years that way. Hang in there, as long as he's happy that's all that matters.
  16. Since I run my own business providing a service, I'd pay off my mortgage first and probably limit my work to the bare minimum that would just cover my house bills. The rest is gravy.
  17. You're right though, spending $50+ on an HDMI cable is a joke. You can get them for $5 all over the web, it's just to send a digital signal.
  18. Ontario and BC are changing the sales tax system to just 1 tax Harmonized Tax combining GST & PST. The maritimes I believe have already done this years ago and most other countries have done it as well. However, all of your general services here such as contractors, painters, carpet installers, lawncare, snow removal, etc. will be forced to charge PST in addition to the GST starting July 1st. Currently PST is only charged when selling products and now will be tacked on to all services.
  19. This is going to hurt my business!!! I hate it with a passion. I've run a web development business for 6 years and we are expanding in January. Tacking on an additional 8% for our type of service can only hurt us. Often clients are working with strict budgets in our industry which means we may have to reduce our own price by 8% at times to fit within their overall budget. The small guys, contractors, service men, etc. are going to hurt from this big time if they haven't enough from the poor economy.
  20. I got a Sharp Aquos 46" 1080p in Oct of 2007. It's hooked up to Rogers HD dual PVR and I've yet to be more impressed with regards to picture quality from any friends setup. Of course blueray in true 1080p trumps anything but it's still impressive. Keep in mind distance from the TV is also important with regards to size of your television. If you're sitting 6-7ft from a 50" set watching a standard definition station it simply isn't going to look great at all and the fact is a ton of channels you probably watch are not available in HD and if they are might cost you a good few bucks to purchase them.
  21. As lame as it sounds, probably Pike. There is no way I could get stuck fishing with 1 method all year like jigging for walleye or float fishing. With pike you can have fun with topwater, crankbaits, jigs, ice fishing, etc. Also, if you take some time to prepare them they are good eatin' too.
  22. I haven't done much fishing this year (had my first son in August). I have a bar fridge in the garage I use for bait, there's no way my wife would have that in the fridge.
  23. I think the funniest thing of the past week in Hockey was the poll that "found 33% consider the Montreal Canadiens to be the country's national hockey team" Sports media outlets (aka TSN) blew it up like it's a pure fact because of their 100th anniversary yet they failed to mention that a whopping 1000 canadians were surveyed lol.
