Work you say. Back in the Dark Ages in 95' when our staff had access to the Interweb thing the subject of using company resources and time came up concerning folks using the internet when they were supposed to be working. Our senior staff that may have never seen a PC up until then said they would fire anyone doing that. I asked if they have ever fired anyone for reading a newspaper or looking at a Playboy magazine up until then? Like HTHM says here, "Oh look, a can of worms lets open it." It is under Ontario labour law potentially a dismissible offence, I have never heard of anyone within my circle (which is very small now) that has even been disciplined for it.

To completely digress, of course, I recently learned that one of my Engineer trainees in the early 90's that I failed on his 1st bout of operational training has been named Vice-President. What did I know? I'm cringing. 

To be fair I'm an Information Technology Analyst, it's my job to look at things on the internet!!! 😜

Maybe he's still on dial up and it took that long to load the video!!!!!

Beauty Pic big guy. I have to ask, do you and Brian Misfish have jobs where you have to do something or are you paid by Ontario Fishing Community to post stuff? Just asking. If it's the latter keep up the good work, I think you both should demand a raise. 

I'm sitting at my desk at work.

Felt this thread needed something other than negative comments.

Time to lighten this thread up a bit!!!

Here's a pic I took of my pooch with my new lens!!!

ENJOY!!!  😜

He needs a snowdog for all that gear.  Right Terry ? LOL

Thanks for the pump up for ice fishing Dave.

Luckily there's only an inch of snow or dragging that thing would kill a fella!!!!

Should be sled safe by the weekend. 

One of the local guys was out on Sunday on the closest fishable water to my house. 
It's less than a mile to his spot from my front door.

I would like to see or hear exactly what he said. I  don't follow Hockey any longer but would tune in between the 1st and 2nd period on Hockey Night in Canada just to listen to him. It was refreshing when you listened to a Talking Head that didn't tow the company line and didn't care what he said and who he said it to. People are so sensitive today. Especially you millennials that got a participation trophy for coming in last in anything. I'll leave it at that. I don't want to get Mod queued. 

When I was a kid I worked security during the tapping of his TV show The Grapevine if I can remember that long ago in his restaurant and bar in downtown Hamilton on Main St. I found him to be very respectful to all the staff unlike many of his guests and a certain producer of the show that is now a star of the US reality show "Sharks Tank." Yep that would be Mr. Wonderful when he had a head of curly hair and wasn't a multi millionaire yet.

The law of political correctness prevails , at least he didn't wear blackface.

I was going to forego the celebrations here in Yellowknife after hearing what Sportsnet has done but have decided to organize a protest instead. Hopefully we will be out in force during Hockey Day in Canada.

HMMM, may have to drive up from London and check it out.

Barrie almost hit someone in the head with a slapshot from the point, now i know why players don't want to stand in front of the net . 

Did you see the Jets game the other day?

Little got smoked in the ear hole by a slap shot from the point by Nikolaj Ehlers!!!

Punctured eardrum, 30 stitches, vertigo and bleeding in his brain as a result.

Looked like it would not be pleasant at all.

Don't even need to be in front of the net to take one.

AM is a prodigy, being wasted because of bab's noodle, AM looks disgruntled and pissed off and I don't blame him

edit- I'm darn pissed and have had enough with this stupidity, the current system obviously isn't working

Turn on the Flames/Blues game and you will instantly see what's missing with the Leafs.

Is that a pack of menthols in her pocket?

HMMMM, Leafs pursuing a little grit up front. 🙂

I never think of Hyman and grit at the same time!

More like tenacity.

The dude works hard in the corners and on puck retrieval.

Many years a go I put a product like this on my steering cable, it was really easy and never had any steering issues, but my motor was only 35hp.

There seems to be a number of similar products out there, as I can recall I got mine one fall on  closeout from Walmart for a couple of bucks.

Yep, those work well on cable steering.

Keeps the cables from corroding.

Thanks drifter. do you clean the steering rod with anything to get the old dry grease off?

Spray some WD40 on it and give a wipe.
