  1. Wouldn't where you go, when you go places, the route you took and how fast your were going be considered personal information?

     

    Not if it's not connected to me (ie anonymous info).

    Who cares if they know someone drove down Yonge St. on Saturday afternoon a exactly 2:43 pm.

    As long as they don't say that Drifter_016 drove down Yonge St. on Saturday afternoon at 2:43 pm at 110 kmh and here's the proof and his address and phone number.

     

    If they only take the data as a whole ie. (on this date this many people drove down Yonge St. during this time). This kind of info can be used to create traffic flow reports which in turn can be used to help manage traffic. I don't think they should be selling speed info but artery traffic should be of no consequence to anybody. It's no different than putting those rubber hose traffic counters on the roads to monitor traffic densities and flow.

  2. I dunno, but after reading all this I feel kinda guilty using cedars to build duck blinds......ok, I am over it.

     

     

    I hope you contacted the Provincial Ministry of Duck Blind Assembly for a permit and that it is up to code. unsure.gif

    Wouldn't want you to get charged under Statute 3.0.1.6B which pertains to unlawful construction of a waterfowl hide on public or private land and waterways. rolleyes.gif

  3. Are you old enough to remember any of these?

    .... and for what it's worth they are to me, fishing related. They're songs that my Dad would turn up a little on route to our favourite fishing holes. :D

     

    Unfortunately I do remember every single one of them. old_man-3569.gif

  4. With the motor in the upright (running) position tap lightly on the bowl of the leaking carb with the handle of a screwdriver. This will usually unstick a stuck float, if not you may need to remove the fuel bowl and give the float/needle a shot of carb cleaner.

  5. I somehow managed to get gas on my carpet...

     

    The glue seemed to dissolve... Now I have a 3-4 foot wrinkled patch of carpet in the center of my boat floor...

     

    I was thinkin injecting glue with a syringe or something along those lines and rolling it out smooth...

     

    What do you guys think???

     

    Any other ideas would help...

    Won't work Mike.

    The only way you will be able to fix it is to either peel off and replace or cut with a razor knife and fold it open glue up with contact cement and fold the patch back into place. You need to make sure that all the gas and disolved glue is removed prior to regluing and you need to glue the carpet as well as the deck.

    Be forewarned that the former method is the preferred method.

  6. If you want to get rid of ethanol in your fuel just move to the far North!!! :whistling:

    I have been told (from several sources) that there is no ethanol in any of our fuels up here in the NWT. :thumbsup_anim: :thumbsup_anim:

    In Alaska there are ethanol pumps but they are all well signed as well.

     

     

    I think a lot of my open water fishing is going to be out in the baby boat with t 4hp on it.

  7. I use slow cure gel epoxies and reinforcement strips to fix broken plastics.

    You need to make sure to rough up the surfaces prior to applying the epoxy so it has some area to bite into if not it will just peel off.

    I would disassemble the screen and make the repair and reassmble.

     

    If I had to guess I would say it's either an Acer or Toshiba laptop. :ninja:

  8. I added a set of air bags on my Honda Pilot and they work great!!!

    The truck handles and corners way better than without and I can get rid of the suspension sag when towing. They were not expensive for my application either.

    They were under $100 US and delivery was $11 (special deal) from JC Whitney in the States.

     

    Installation was more involved on my vehicle than it will be on yours (the pilot has IFS and coil springs) but still only took about 4 hours even with the extra time it took to run the air lines into the vehicle (I put the valve inside the jack compartment)

  9. Picked up the Nautilus charger at CTC last night. Looks like a sweet unit and can't wait to install it. I am happy that I wont have to lug the batteries out of the boat now that I have an electrical outlet close enough to charge them on board.

     

    Thanks for all your help guys and an extra special one out to Dave for your advice (and links) :thumbsup_anim:

     

    No problem

    Don't forget to put the bill in a safe place in case there's a problem & remember it's got a 5 year warranty. :thumbsup_anim: :thumbsup_anim:

  10. I don't know how you guys can't be concerned about the ice being out. I live hundreds of km's south of where you guys are going and have been iced out several times on May long. And it was one mother of a cold winter up here this year. Hope it all works out for ya's.

     

    Oh, it's pretty simple in this day and age Dan.

    A little thing they call the internet. whistling.gif
