  1. We did the torrent thing for years before we went KODI and lately an Android box and a IPTV suscription, best site we found was EZTV for torrenting. The good thing with a torrent is no buffering if you have a slow connection because the whole show is on your computer before you watch it, just make sure you get a vpn, UNLESS YOU LIKE THREATENING LETTERS.
  2. Curtis McElhinney
  3. Some more Warren, don't see him with other than a Les Paul very often.
  4. we use this one https://qqtv.biz/ from a reseller, he gets a few bucks but he he keeps us up to date with Kodi type addons for the android box , saves me the headache . edit : I'm 68, just getting too old for dealing with technical crap, patience wears thin too fast anymore
  5. I debone my deer and trim the silverskin and fat, I find the taste imparted by the bone marrow and tallowy fat unpleasant , can't imagine making soup using deer bones.
  6. 58 F here ?
  7. woke up at 4:30 AM, was still 45 F here all snow is gone except for where it was piled.
  8. Had to start mine a few days ago, took a bit of priming too, hadn't been started since last winter ?
  9. Beth Hart killing an Etta James Classic
  10. I guess I just getting cynical in my old age but I found the irony of charging an electric vehicle with a gas powered internal combustion generator , hilarious. Excuse my warped sense of humour.
  11. I do the Friendly scale, minus 8 is around minus 20 I think on the Cillyazz scale. ?
  12. Recently dumped Bell, they keep calling with real low offers to come back but it is only for a 6 month or a year honeymoon period and then back to the same old , same old.
  13. or this, LOL, offroading you need a support vehicle.
  14. Back when we used to get buckets of smelts in the 50/60's we cleaned them with nothing more than a pair of scissors ?
  15. There are a few hiccups but we have it mainly for the TSN and Sportsnet, but my wife watches a a bunch of lame crap on the Oprah channel and I'll watch Joe Kendra on the ID Network ?
  16. Hit -8 F here a couple of nights ago, coldest I've seen in my 35 years here . I recall -14 F once as a kid in the 60's in Pelham away from the lake. First 30 years of my life we were in a period of global coolng, some pretty horrific winters in the 70's, since the 80's we have seen a warming trend, recently read the poles are shifting lately at a much greater rate than normal , perhaps the weather cycle is reversing again.
  17. Now this is really that Derek kid, LOL , guess he was born to play with the Allman Brothers
  18. Just chilling with my favourite online radio station and a box my favourite vintage, Niagara 2018 ??. http://cocktelera-blues.playtheradio.com/
  19. Just learn to shoot right handed, there was no one faster than dad with a pump shotgun, his strong arm working the pump. You're lucky when it comes to bolt guns, left handed actions are a rarity, tons of right handed actions out there.
  20. My dad was strange too, right handed but left eye dominant, https://www.allaboutvision.com/resources/dominant-eye-test.htm , so anything that the parallax error would cause him problems, he did left handed, shooting, throwing darts, swinging a baseball bat, archery but he did cast with his right hand and he was very good at it too, he won first place a few times at the Toronto Sportsman Show , Toronto Anglers and Hunter's competition both in fly and bait accuracy, the late 40's , early 50's.
  21. If it is mounted on top of the rod I reel it with my right hand , slung underneath I reel with my left, I am old and right handed. BTW Always cast right handed.
  22. Had Bell all my life, close to 50 years and dad had 40 years service when he retired from Bell. Last Fall we decided to cut the TV service completely, only phone and Fibe Internet to remain, I call , press 1 for English, LOL, get some overseas call centre and some heavily accented , barely understandable English and explain I want to cancel about 90 bucks of TV service. Short story, because I don't have 3 services bundled anymore I loose a bunch of discounts and they recoup about 50 bucks of the anticipated savings I thought I would get. I get POed , loose it , probably said some things I shouldn't have, call Cogeco, get a Canadian and work out a deal for unlimited internet, think it is a 60 gig connection, home phone retaining my present number , bunch of features and unlimited calling US and Canada long distance as my wife is from Florida and my stepdaughters and grandkids are there and 1 in Oregon, all for $104 a month, going to $140 or so after the year honeymoon is over, better than around 200 with Bell for basically the same package. Between an android box and Cyberflix, 15 bucks for an IPTV package and the Toshiba TV in the livingroom does chromecast for the laptop sitting on the coffee table for youtube, we get all the Leafs, Raptors and Jays game, morning and evening news on CHCH and watch just about any show that was broadcast in the past 20 years. Home is now Bell Free ?
  23. I use a lot of dried beans, chickpeas and lentils , an instant pot type pressure cooker makes life a lot easier and a whole bunch quicker.
  24. Most gar I have ever seen was in Stoco Lake at Tweed. On a high speed run you would see pods of them hanging just under the surface all over the lake.
  25. They both cost more than my house, crazy . ? '82 I bought an 18 foot Sylvan Rodmaster, 90 Johnson and trailer for under 10 with tax.
