Dad had at least 2 Austins around 1960, passed my drivers test in a 59 Austin Cambridge, Smith gauges were no better than Lucas and don't hit a puddle at speed or the engine will die, electrically British cars were the worst.

Somewhere in my internet travels, I came across a page entitled something like " Ask a Game Warden " for Ontario, can't find it now People could post questions and MNRF staff would answer, anyone recall the link? could be useful here. edit: I wouldn't trust a phone call , call 6 different offices and get 6 different answers, and nothing in print.

After years of trucks I too downsized to a Jeep Liberty same year as your new vehicle, much the same size too, with a 4' by 8', 3500 pound axle landscape trailer I can do every thing the pickup did and more . Neighbor in his early 70's just dumped his cab and a half Ram PU for a Ford Escape, Love the shorter wheelbase in parking lots, I swear they are making the spots and rows narrower in recent years.

I don't recall any vent that had to be opened on my 80's vintage 9.9 Evinrude, just pump the bulb a few times and good to go.

Nice springs, whitecaps out of the NE when I took the garbage out this morning though. -
I agree whole heartedly that he shouldn't have been asked to give up his seat,but my understanding is that this goes on all the time with most airlines and I don't agree with it. But for me, his past is relavent , when you are playing this for a six, no, seven figure payout with the media feeding frenzy on United just what would be your decent incentive for a volunteer ?? Next time the media picks a poster boy for what I think is a valid issue, maybe they should pick one with out a history that makes you question their motives and how much they contributed to what transpired.

This is going to be his biggest payday yet, I believe he intentionally escalated the situation , the resulting media frenzy played out better than expected, probably dreaming of a big lawsuit as they dragged him down the aisle. Not to mention he had his medical license suspended for a sex for prescriptions conviction and just recently got it back. Sorry, but I personally think this guy is a con man and shyster and the media are a bunch of fools for falling for this. https://www.pokernews.com/news/2017/04/in-the-spotlight-david-dao-poker-results-searched-flight-27675.htm

I don't get the hate for United they called airport police to deal with the situation, which happens far too often on most airlines, security who are not employed by United went overboard. Not any different than if I called the police to remove a trespasser from my property and the responding officers go beserk and beat on the trespasser if he doesn't leave, would I as the owner of the property and the one who called the authorities get crucified in the media for the actions of these officer? Hope not, I don't see any difference in the two scenarios.

WOW, Leafs win in double overtime and uncharacteristically the Raptors run out of gas in the second half, they are usually come back specialists. Edit: seems the Jays haven't even left the starting gate yet

Ding Ding Ding we have a winner . -
Couple of Canadian Shows that are first rate are " 19-2 " and the show " Bellevue " in it's first season looks like its going to be a winner too.
-
Pretty much the same as the whole season, if the game was only 2 periods long , they'd be at the top, if they don't blow it in the 3rd they definitely will let it slip away in the side show if tied at the end of regulation. Edit: think one of the commentators said they lead the league in first period goals

Some real Fleetwood Mac, not the pop band of the 70's and later -
Rereading it I think you are OK with a CNIB card or a Ontario Handicap sticker in any situation, other cards and documentation from other Canadian or Provincial agencies would require that assistance is required to fish and probably a judgement call in the field. I would expect something like producing my ODSP documentation for hearing loss would bring a smile to the CO's face as he reached for his pen.
-
I've read that as the person aiding the handicap fisherperson doesn't need a license as long as they are only aiding the handicap, if they are fishing with their own rod they need a license, I would assume.

Does it really matter if they are a lot pregnant or just a little bit preggo, if they go in the cooler or on a stringer they aren't going to spawn again.

Not 10 years, this is my most memorable Leafs game in my 66 years and unless they win the Cup again before I croak, will probably remain so. http://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/nhl/bruins-eliminate-leafs-in-game-7-shocker-1.1386432

I know the shoreline is like a double/double right now with the wind and the rain but from my experience most guys are too far offshore for early season browns from watching the lake at my street and my own many years on the water. If you are not POing the shore casters you are out too far IMHO. Steve seems to have the early season browns dialed in .

Are you talking about Lake Niapenco ?? that is a one of deal with that fire fighting foam from the Hamilton Airport training. It and the Welland River are the only spots where that is a factor.
