  1. Nice, love my old unanodized Stanton that leaves you with black hands after a day on the water.
  2. Funny , my wife watches about 16 hours while she does her knitting and crochet work, follows a couple dozen shows using Kodi to keep up to date. Been with Bell like forever , she would get letters when she torrented her shows from Pirate's Bay, EZTV etc , she got spooked and that's when I came up with Kodi, actually it was XBMC when I started with it, never a letter from Bell . We tried to go legal with Netflix and Crave but it seems you can't watch a season till it is finished airing for the entire season, she wants to watch last night's episode the following days or so.
  3. My Jeep Liberty aka a Mopar product has exactly the same issue with the light, it seems to go out in a start or two after I loosen and retighten the gas cap
  4. Had a couple of issues for the first time this morning, yesterday was fine.
  5. I really don't see how wiping out these boxes is going to eliminate their predicament , never owned a "BOX" but have installed Kodi on desktops, laptops, tablets and even for giggles I put it on my Samsung phone, I see they even have a build for Raspberry Pi so you could easily make your own "BOX"
  6. Dontcha have a extra laptop kicking around, we have used my wife's old I3 HP laptop hardwired to the network and TV with a wireless mouse as the remote for years now with Kodi. Much more capable with the whole network accessible than an android box.
  7. Good going, yes it looks like maybe an early winter, saw a Junco hopping around the patio just before dark, this is really early for them to be this far south.
  8. fresh dead works as well as live ,IMHO, P.T. Barnum was right
  9. Glad I live close to the Niagara River, open water all winter
  10. Mud Dauber Wasp, peeholes on outboards are one of their favourites.
  11. Another M class flare yesterday, be a day or 2 before it reaches earth, could be worth a watch, if the clear skies hold.
  12. Sushi anyone
  13. I used to make the same argument, but as you say I am a smart man and if SWMBO wants to watch it, I keep my mouth shut, put my headphones on and catch the news on my laptop while she watches the tube.
  14. Disregard my comment , on looking at the video it is not really coaxial cable but a metal foil shielded twisted pair, a waterproof soldering would work.
  15. You need to maintain the impedance of the original Coax cable , usually either 50 or 75 Ohms , I would try to splice it with cable TV connectors before just soldering..
  16. the shovel guy is a freaking awesome player, give him 4 strings and he plays a bass line rhythm and lead at the same time edit: on a second listen I detect a loop there as well, still great though
  17. I used to think TLC stood for The Learning Channel, my wife watches it on occasion and it is a toss up between it standing for " Totally Lame Crap " or " The Loser's Channel " in this day and age. Yeah 90 bucks is pretty well standard here and really all we watch is the news on CHCH and then sports but you need Sportsnet and TSN anymore more for that and they screw you over trying to get them on the cheap.
  18. OI, I meant the video was not quite current and he is a bit older now but Glenn Hughes is our age and can still hit those notes . IMHO one of best voices ever in Rock. You are right " Rock and Roll Never Dies "
  19. I see " Dart Guy " is going to cohost a radio show on 1050 AM from 3 to 5 Saturday afternoon
  20. Say you run out of juice 20 miles off the beaten path in your electric SUV, how do get it back to the grid, it's not like you can get a 20 litre jerry can of electricity ?
  21. I thought global cooling and a ice age killed off the dinos.
  22. It's a kayak ? do you really need a launch ?
  23. Videos are a bit dated but what a set of pipes for a guy my age
  24. Fishing low to the water from a canoe, I always used a 9 1/2 foot , ie. longer rod, 9 wt with a bass bug taper or a 30 foot 280 gr hi density shooting head with mono shooting line for lake fishing. Bass poppers with the floater in the morning and a black woolly bugger stripped across the bottom on the sinker during the day.
