You really have to wonder why someone would take the chance to; kill a dear out of season, (like nipissing said, years ago if your family was hungry, no one worried about seasons) and then dump the carcus where it is likely to be found.

I wonder if he'd like a nice B&B to stay at in the Kawarthas

Well, I have known Roy for years and I have never known him to laugh AT anyone. Clampet, I have met you, I have watched a number of your posts, I respect you, but I think you don't know Roy like I know Roy! Unitil I hear it from Roy himself I choose to believe that a person that I know asked for help and the only thing that bothers me at this point is that I wasn't there when he needed me. I'll hold that thought until I know differently!

Use what you have learned to help others! Nothing wrong with that! By the way; the only people that don't make mistakes are the ones that don't do anything!

I think it might already be closed!

When I first moved into this place I wanted to install central air because of Sue's health problems. DE had a special advertised so I contacted them and a sales person came out to see us. He quoted us on a system and as a bonus, we were going to get Airmiles too and we didn't even have to pay for a year (no additional cost). (Oh ya, and after we signed up , we found out that the air miles program had expired so we didn't qualify) The system was installed in July and it worked fine. In the fall, we had an inspection done by the company that supplied our propane, turned out the central air system was installed within 5' of the propane tanks (apparantly a real no no). So I tried to contact DE. I went to their office on no less than 5 occasions ( it was about 200' from my office) the service manager was never available, and he never did return any of my phone calle. I called their customer service on numerous occasions, couldn't get anywhere there either. Finally called their billling Dept.. It was by then almost time to pay the bill. I explained the situation and told them I wouldn't be paying until the situation was corrected. I got a very polite letter from a young lady there telling me that "they were sorry for the inconvenience and would give me one free maintainance inspection for my trouble". By then I was really unhappy (ticked off) and told them to come and get the system, they declined but sent me a letter offering their "solution", no return address! so I called them back and explained to the lady on the phone that I had received a very nice letter from[wahtever her name was] and wanted to send a letter of thanks and copy here supervisor because she had been so helpful. I got a return address To which I promptly forwarded a notice to remove their equipment or I would have it removed at their expense and notify (can't remember the name of the regulatory board) of their infraction. Their equipment got removed two days before the deadline and I had the exact same model installed by a local contractor the next day for $700.00 less and done to code. me and DE=

All you have to do is look at Hydro One to see the way things are done here in Canada. Spend thousands on your secratary's corporate credit card and get a $3,000,000.00 severance package. We need a smily face doing the one finger salute! (With a rubber glove on it)

I don't buy it! I don't know what happened but Roy doesn't cry wolf and he doesn't sucker anyone into anything.

I'm here, but I have no idea how to get into 'Chat". every time I try it wants me to download some software. Roy, if you are up and still need to talk,

For your sake and the sake of your family, keep up the good work! I hold the worlds record for most times trying to quit (I wasn't very good at it). My wife looked at me once and asked why I kept putting myself through it and I replied " if I keep trying, one of these days I'll get it right!" Can't even remember how many years ago that was.

Thanks! Just spewed coffee all over my monitor and keyboard with the thought of that one LOL.

I would only hope someone would do the same if Andy ever went missing!!!! We have been here 5 years and succesfully returned 3 strays (one of them about 4 times but she was a sweetheart and old so we didn't mind).

Yesterday morning about this time the same long range forcast showed way below normal temps for most of March. Yesterday afternoon, 680 news was saying temperatures for March should be about normal. This morning, the long range forcast looks like someone just flipped it upside down! Why am I so confused?

I have to say that I think this thread has generated some fantastic replies and some excellent points of view! Some real eye openers!

I do all my buying on line through Royal Bank but if I buy in today before 3:00 pm, I get the price based on the CLOSE of todays market. Rick's advice was right on the money. Yesterday was an excellent day to buy in as overnignt asian markets recovered significantly which means that NA markets will likely follow suit today. I'm not sure that we have seen the bottom of the barrel yet but even if the market just recovers you stand to make some nice returns on investment. Remember, buy when it is going down, sell when it is going up (so many people do it the other way around!)

Automatics for hunting??????????? I don't see any point in them and you sure wouldn't need one for target shooting. But semi automatics, well I can work the action on my pump almost as fast as you can pull the trigger on a semi..... so what is it going to be next, ban all guns that hold more than one bullet? We'll be back to muzzle loaders before long.

yah, I'm getting tired of all this cold and snow. A few years ago we had ice out on the lake by April 1. last year it was April 11. At the rate we are going this year I'll be ice fishing here when the season opens in May. Grrrrrrrrrrr!

Way to go Dan! That looks like it should be on a calander or something!

Very well written Sam! Thanks.

Don't ever let anyone tell you that OFC isn't a family!

Could this be what you saw? Worms in perch They are not always stretched out and can apear as a small dot in the flesh.

Well, as usual; I'm a day late and a dollar short! Just remember; getting older is good! Happy birthday!

Tears are Ok Blake, just try to mix a few smiles in there too; remember some of the good times! She will be in your heart forever!

We're OK up here in Lindsay, light rain, -3 C right now but the wind seems to have died down.

Glad to hear you are OK Glen. I have friends in Montgomery, I'll have to try to give them a call today.
