DRIFTER_016

I've been using Vonage since 2005 with no issues at all.

Just recently I was having issues with my device and they fedexed me a replacement at no cost.

Costs me $21/mo for 500 minutes world wide.

This is starting to get old.

First the van goes in then 3 sleds and I heard another fool sunk his truck by the river.

Good point...that is a hike! 

I just checked Vivid Seats for Ottawa tickets. Tomorrow night Minnesota is in town and the tickets run from $16 to $110. Not bad! On Jan 20 the Leafs are in Ottawa...tickets are $142 to $501! The Leaf fans will drive 5 hours AND pay 5 times the going rate in Ottawa to watch their team play. Bet it's a "no tarps night"!!!!!   Even when teams like Boston or Chicago are in Ottawa tickets start at under $30! 

 

I got 3rd row on the circle in the Sens end in Tampa for $13!!!! 

We got a good little dump of snow late in the week so I decided to take the sled out for a little run, and to see how the new LED head lights and light bar work.

Well we still need a bunch of snow as the trails are very rough with many rocks still sticking out of the snow. Guess I'll have to stick to the lakes for a while. 

The lights work great though so there is some good news. 

The new light bar is attached to the bumper using bar clamps and is hooked in with the high beams.

I replaced the halogen head ligh bulbs with new LEDs. These are the low beams.

These are the high beams along with the light bar.

Guess I'm ready to sled out to the cabin and maybe drill a few holes now. 

Well after I get the hut and tackle ready. 

Seems they had a decent turn out tonight.

Maybe if they take the roof off their rink people will fill the stands.    

Picked up a Yukon Gear New Country Parka today at CT.

Looks to be a nice piece and it's warm as well as comfortable.

Perfect for those shoulder seasons North of 60*.

It's a great deal at $100 off as well.

Insulated, waterproof and breathable.

My cabin site before I started working on it. 

The closest I get is making bannock when out camping.

I make other stuff with yeast.

Matt, I can tell you that some Leaf fans are as high as kites...the rest of us are much more grounded and know the empire could collapse without notice. Look at Ottawa, I knew they played above their heads last year but didn't expect this debacle. 

What gets me is the TSN/Sportsnet guys saying the Leafs are going for the cup this year.

I'm like. ooooooooooooooooooooo, kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.

Sure they are.

They need some parts before they become that team.

There was ZERO ice on Midland Harbour on Tuesday, with 2 foot waves. Today, 48 hours later, there are three sled tracks ripping past the coal dock for Port !! Darwin awards coming soon....

Had a guy sink his truck a couple of weeks ago when he drove into open water at night.

The spot is known for current and bad ice to all except this mensa candidate. 

The guy took the red route (bad) VS the green route (good)

Then there's this guy that drove onto ice in another current area yesterday.

Yes, I'm hoping to be on the ice over Christmas.

Been too busy to get out of the first 6 weeks of the season!!!!

Ottawa covers the salary difference between Karlsson & Polak so there are no cap issues.  Leafs cover Lupol's salary (no cap hit) and Ottawa's tarp account.

Polak saves Ottawa the embarrassment of Phaneuf being their best defense man after Karlsson leaves.  The third round picks can be used to draft players who will be ready to enter the NHL around the same time as their upcoming lottery picks.  This is ideal for a long rebuild.  

When visiting small market teams, Ottawa can use the tarp account to buy unsold blocks of tickets and cover the seats.  This essentially gives Ottawa home ice advantage.

The best stat today is that the Sens have lost 10 of their last 11 games.

We should just bask in the suck that is the Sens.

You know, for Matts sake!!!!  

I'm happy with where they are in the standings.

Lets hope they can keep it up. 

Even though they certainly aren't perfect at least they aren't the SENs!!!!!! 

Good game by the lads tonight.

Are you going to need any tarps for the renovation.  If so, I'd make sure to pick them right away while they are still in stock.  They may be hard to find in the Ottawa area pretty soon.  

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Chirp level: EXPERT!!!!!   

Pretty decent start against the Pens tonight.

Hope they keep it up in the 2nd and 3rd.

But 5.6 million is about 500 million less than a real barn so it's a win, win!!!!!  

Matt should be ecstatic.

The Sens new rink opened today!!!

No more excuses that it's too far away or takes to long to get to.

Sens New Rink

I think he has moved on to some other activity. I sure would if it was the Leaf team that was losing. I do hope the Canadian teams can turn it around.

I believe he's playing in a ringette beer league in Ottawa.

I hear that some of the Sens are on the team.  

Yup, they still need a few more pieces if they expect to go deep into the playoffs.
