  1. On campus today (York U) I was coming out of an appointment and as I was approaching drop-box I noticed that beside it was standing a fellow wearing a jacket that read 'Extreme Angler' with the show's symbol of hook and thunder on it. I ask him : 'fan of the show?' He says: ' actually I am on the show! ' Turned out to be Mark Kulik who as it turns out works at York U as his day job We chatted for a little while about the show (which i have not seen since my WFN channel got cut off ) and then he had to go back to work Thought it was pretty cool , probably the last thing I expected to happen while at school , I guess professional anglers have day jobs too! All the best to everyone in 2008
  2. Wiesner insurance , who are a broker for AIG Insurance . They gave us the best quote by far on house + 2 cars.
  3. I've said it once and I'll say it again . When times are uncertain , look into pumpkin futures.
  4. Great move iceguy . You just saved two lives today .
  5. Has anyone suggested to restart the computer ?
  6. How'd you guys like Cramer's little outburst on NBC a few days ago ? What an actor , WHAT AN ACTOR ! THEY KNOW NOTHING !

  8. Alright ! Looks like little spinners , spoons , and jigs of all kinds it is . Thanks guys !
  9. Heading up to algonquin to do some interior camping with people from work . Been waiting for this since november as I've never been up there, but it should be very nice . We're gonna be setting up camp on Little Doe lake, and so I am wondering about what kind of fish we can expect to catch from a canoe and/or from shore ? Are we going to be wasting our time up there this time of year without downriggers ?

  11. That is one seriously pimped out kayak ! I just hope that you never tip that thing coz that's alot of expensive gear to lose ! How do you transport such a large kayak to and from the lake ?
  12. Hey fellas I have a mildly damaged Volvo V70 station wagon that I need to fix by September. See pictures below . I was hoping someone here could recommend an experienced body shop, preferably a body shop experienced specifically with Volvo's that I could try and call for a quote. Thanks for any help !
  13. Taxes are a way that lets Canadians support fellow Canadians in times of need , and get the same treatment in return . Moreover it's a way that lets us ensure that the least among us are cared for. I think the bottom line here is that , the free market should not be allowed to take care of things that are vital to one's life , such as education, healthcare, policing, firefighting , 911 , and so many others . Why ? Because just like with healthcare, the market puts a price on everything , and when companies are profit driven, they have to make the tradeoff between saving a life and saving money. Or with education, the tradeoff is whether to ensure a solid education for all students vs. more money saved on school equipment, salaries, facilities, etc. Guess which alternative capitalism tells us to choose ? Just my 2 cents.
  14. Have you seen his new documentary dubbed Sicko ? Call him biased, call him one sided , the man is a genius. I've watched the movie twice now, and I was left fuming after each time . We might have some problems with our health care system here , but got forbid one of us get kicked out of the hospital with broken ribs and collar bones because we weren't able to pay our medical bill. I think alot of the older aged board members here will appreciate this documentary . May we never privatize health care!
  15. Tito's experience in the cage is gonna do it for him tonight . Tito by 3rd round TKO . I see Silva losing his title tonight to a better wrestler via leg lock or decision . Sean Sherk by Decision against an always game Franca . Noguiera by anything he wants !
  16. At around 3 PM tomorrow I will be on my way to 6 mile lake for two nights at our waterfront campsite ! Can hardly wait ! Will report back if the fishing turns out to be good ! Have a fun and safe weekend everyone !
  17. I think we need a thread discussing who everyone here is with for Auto insurance , because I myself too am shopping around for cheaper insurance . RBC here .
  18. That's going to be prime Smallie territory in 1 year .
  19. Hey Steve ! Thanks for the offer ! I should've checked the the thread more often , damn it . Where's Fisherman's Pier , just for future reference ? Hope everyone's havin a great morning chasing slimers !
  20. This reminds me of the story I read in the news about the guy who was told he was going to die from a tumor within 3 months , so he quit his job , maxed out all his credit cards , spent his life's savings away , only to find out that the doctors made a false diagnosis . Now he is suing the hospital . I wonder if these Mayan people are going to do the same thing ? Gotta love the primitiveness of ancient civilizations, compared to modern ones. Can you imagine where we're gonna be in 1000 years if we keep advancing at the present pace ? I predict apocalypse via Chuck Norris
  21. I've been captivated by work for too long , I must go fishing ! Anyone looking for a partner tomorrow , chasing anything from panfish to muskies ? We split costs as always , Coffee is on moi . Have a good weekend everyone!
  22. A friend asked me a question about registering a boat . If the previous owner lost the registration , what are the consequences for the next owner ? Is it replacable , and how much does it cost Approximately ? Thanks guys
