Just this morning, my wife does html and web pages for a couple of groups she had to move a bunch of pictures off a free bucket account to somewher else and redo the linking, she was not impressed

Haven't seen it here yet but elsewhere, looks like they want you to pay to enable 3rd party hosting. Anyone else seen the greyed out box where a picture is supposed to be with a message sending you here. http://photobucket.com/p500/

Yep, when I lived in Welland, guy across the road had a trailer with many small compartments/cages with the name of a Racing Pigeon Club on it. He'd haul the pigeons to some release point a good distance away and simultaneously release them. He didn't own any pigeons himself, because he could cheat. I know there was betting going on as well, think a lot of bucks were bet on those pigeons.

Does it have a band on it ? some one's homing pigeon's internal GPS malfuntioned. edit: just saying cause I had one hang around a bird feeder for a few days and it had a band, fairly tame but couldn't pick it up to see the band.

When dad had the place on Loon or as it was locally called Dudmon Lake years ago , we always said the Burnt started there.

I have a definite preference for still pictures and a story or even just captions under the pictures, don't watch a lot if they are in video format.

That's fine but what does crimes under the Criminal Code have to do with enforcement of Provincial Regulations ???

Using Jumper Cable wire for 24v Trolling Motor System?
dave524 replied to bassfighter's topic in General Discussion
Be careful there is a wide range of wire quality and size in jumper cables, they go anywhere from 20 bucks to over a hundred mainly because of the grade of wire used. -
I had in the 60's a Genuine Flatfish that had a spreader fore and aft for a total of 4 small trebles, the way the regs read back then it was illegal to have more than 3 trebles on a lure.
-
Lazy Ikes ??? another lure of the same genre. edit: if I look through my old steelhead gear I think there is a few Ping-A-Tees too, another flatfish type lure.
-
Of all the flatfish type lures I've definitely caught more Pickeral/Walleye on a Canadian Wiggler, I liked the jointed ones on Erie even fairly recently for offshore suspended fish, they handle speed better than the others.
-
Great going, I used to like the smaller guys, dipped in egg and rolled in cornmeal/flour mixture and pan fried.

NF Trent Lakes Waste Management ...getting ridiculous
dave524 replied to buckhorn250's topic in General Discussion
Curbside garbage collection sure took the fun out of the weekly going to the dump, scavenging and shootin' rats with a .22 dad would occasionally bring along. -
Years ago, the RCMP?GRC used to do a migratory game bird check during waterfowl season, right in front of the CWS buildings on the causeway. Usually the MNR only does their check opening bass weekend , but don't depend on that

I thought the only difference was the 6500 had wider pillars between the end plates and of course a wider spool than the 5500 resulting in more line capacity, would not the line pick up and probably the gears be the same ?

We also had some issues with Exodus, there is some turmoil going on because a big repository is offline, been using Specto for TV shows the last week Edit: I think the big Fusion repo is down http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/kodi-tvaddons-exodus-shutdown-no-warning-users-open-source-software-media-player-pirate-videos-a7796991.html

Nice truck, ya need to cut the grass

Never understood the US and eventually Canada going to the M16 class of rifle, a few with old school moisin nagants, smle's or garands could pin then at 7-800 yards and they's have to call for artillery support to bail them out
-
That is just plain crazy, I played out to the KM mark when I was younger. . This vid I found on the tube is pretty close to how I imagine it went down with a spotter, range is similar but smaller rifle.

My landscape trailer lost the brake and direction signal on the drivers side, cleaned all connections and grounds still nada. Multimeter at the vehicle flat plug showed no current on one of the plugs with the other probe grounded to the ball, tail lights and right signal showed current on the others, converter is toasted I guess.

When I went to U of T in 69, my student residence was $325 I believe without a meal package, tuition was about $525 for a professional degree, books were another 2 bills, you could eat on 20 a week. If ya didn't party too much ,could probably do the whole year on a bit over 2 grand.. I have a hard time wrapping my old brain around prices of things anymore.

I believe there is also action on the north shore as well, I believe it was here I posted about catching them all summer from shore , off Hasting's Ave. at Long Point, many years ago, right up till late Sept and duck season. Your report makes me believe the fishery would still exist if any capable wanted to give it a try. Thanks for the report, it was good times with a small fire on the beach, dogs on a stick and brown pops in the cooler.

glad I bought here in 83 @ 55 grand for a corner lot with a small bungalow, today it's a nice retirement home , 1 block walking distance to the lake and marinas. I don't know how you kids do it today in this crazy market, there was a downward correction in market value around '90, one neighbour handed their keys back to the bank for a loss after he was laid off , I see it happening again if interest rates rise any. Think it was around '79 they hit 18% for a five year fixed Edit : amazingly , the neighbours either side and over the back fence are the same people that were here in 83, all good people

The livestock fly spray from TSC , that I posted contains Perethrin, maybe you just can't get it in a product for use on humans. Dad used to get 100% Deet when he worked for Bell, nasty stuff, had to wash your hands, it would melt plastic, one steering wheel was never the same after using it edit: permethrin is extremely deadly to fish, hence the warning on disposing of it down the drain.

Some of the guys on the shooting forums I frequent , were treating their turkey hunting camo with this stuff and reported good results, NOT for use on humans , make your own conclusions as to the safety treating clothing. They put it on the night before so it had a chance to dry. http://www.tscstores.com/UltraShield-EX-950ml-P17980.aspx#.WUj-s-grLIU http://absorbine.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/ultrashield-ex-32oz-spray-label.pdf
