Glad things are looking up for Jack, so get some sleep, and hey you're not a suck, you just love your best bud...nothing wrong with that Maureen

No surprise to me...I always knew there was a Santa Glad to hear things are a little brighter for you Rick! Maureen

Great News Gary! Can't think of a better gift! Maureen

And here I thought I already watched a Walleye program Maureen

I was supposed to be working all of the holidays this year,and normally I don't mind working Christmas, as long as I get boxing day off. A few things have happened in the last couple of weeks and I am unexpectedly off for the holidays now...sometimes that can be more exhausting than working Maureen

Hope it's nothing too serious Jack and what Roy said Maureen

Right back at ya Kelvin Maureen

happy happy Gerritt, hope it's a great Birthday! Maureen

Yes, Merry Christmas everyone, and be safe if you're travelling! Maureen

Hey Rick, you best take care of yourself so you can take care of Jack when he's recuparating. He'll be full of beans and back to normal in no time, I am sorry that it did have to happen right at the holidays so he can't get the help sooner, but as was mentioned, it is not life threatening. To help him get around without putting weight on his legs, if it's a back one, try to support him by using a towel under his belly and walk beside him... Maureen

I'd have to say one Christmas in particular sticks out for me. My mom and us kids had moved in with my grandfather and a couple of Aunts when I was about 5ish. That was a lot of people in the house and my mom and I shared the pull out couch in the living room. Christmas Eve was always a special time at that house, different reasons for everyone, but for a 5 yr old, it meant after midnight mass we could open 1 gift before going to bed . I still can't figure out how Santa managed to set up my Barbie camper set right beside me and set out all the other gifts for the rest of the kids in the house without waking me up...I was sleeping directly opposite of the Christmas Tree! I still say he drugged me I also can't figure out how I managed to live that Christmas morning after I ran through the house at almost Lew O'clock waking everyone up and telling them what Santa left them The one thing that has pretty much stayed constant over all the years is Boxing day. We used to gather at my Grandfathers house and visit, play and exchange gifts, the kids got to play Santa's helper, it was a fun time. As the years have passed and the family has grown, we have moved from my Grandfathers house (who is sadly no longer with us) and rent the church hall in the old neighborhood. We have been known to have almost 70 in attendance, and some things have changed, but we still gather, catch up and now we have a new generation of little ones running around having a blast helping to make new memories. Maureen

Have a safe trip you guys, I know we'll hear from you down there Merry Merry and all that stuff Maureen

Enjoy Roger! Maureen

Hey Lew, I thought you weren't retired anymore There are deer near Jane and Eglinton as well. I remember when I was driving the Jane bus there was one hit . Maureen

Congrats!!! Just do him a favor when he gets older...hold his birthday party early , summer is always a good time Maureen

If you insist on going, be very careful. On the news this morning they were showing York Region Police testing the area of Virginia Beach, and there was lots of slush, a bit of ice and they said there sensors show water is coming up through the snow. Maureen

Yet another great show Dave! Learned a couple of things, and had a few good laughs...some even at your expense . I caught my first Walleye using a crank bait...fishing for Pike so I know how it goes. Not many hosts would put on a show where you're fishing for Walleye and catch more Pike Good on ya... For those that missed it, it's on again at 1am Maureen

It's been raining alot up here today, and not much ice in Barrie. I'd call one of the hut operators and ask them, they'll be your best bet for accurate info... Maureen

Hey Dave, Happy Happy, I hope you had a great day! Maureen

Alas, being on dial-up has kept me from it I tried, but it wouldn't let me go anywhere else until it downloaded....might leave it on tonight and by the time I get up I might be able to check it out more. Hope so, would like to see some big cat pics Maureen

I finally get in there on a Tues. and it's empty where is everyone, did y'all change the day??? maureen

Great stuff Fang! Nice to see some employers show their appreciation. Maureen

Dang fishtat beat me to it Maureen

Looks to me like you were having a blast Good stuff Joey I think you'll enjoy this winter more than any other Maureen

Top one I'd say is spagetti sauce with mushrooms and maybe a jalapeno or two? the second one, well I wouldn't eat it if you'd pay me, in fact you'd be best to pay me not to eat it has some pork and ugh beans in it Maureen
