  1. It's the Trans Labrador Highway...here's a link from Snopes.com...these pics were falsely circulated on the web as somewhere in New York.... http://www.snopes.com/photos/natural/oswego.asp
  2. I didn't see a combo for hat/glasses...but here's a link to their store.... http://www.ofah.org/Store/index.cfm?Cat=10 You could also give them a call at 705-748-OFAH (6324)
  3. Spring is coming Spring is coming Spring is coming Spring is coming....... At least that's what I keep telling myself!!! Great report Glen...thanks for the pics and the painful reminder that it's still cold here....LOL
  4. I think it's all here....
  5. Wow...what a fantastic day on the ice!!! Great going you two!!!
  6. LOL Reminds me of that story of the heroic man who amazing fought and defeated 5 grizzly bears with his bare hands!!!! Unfortunately, there were 6 bears.
  7. Wow!! Great news and congrats Dave!
  8. Well...I got out almost 200 times last year fishing...I'm ok with not going over that this year.... And yes.....cabin fever is reaching it's high point....we need warm fishing weather!!
  9. DouG has it right...unless it's bacterial, expensive antibiotics will do nothing for you.
  10. I hate it when little convenience stores try to scam the govt out of taxes. When I go in there, many times I find that they punch in the prices, but the cash register drawer is open the whole time and they never complete the sale. They "pretend" to punch it all up and then ask for the total price...tax included. Of course the idea here is that they pocket the tax they collected from me as extra profit. When I see this happen, I'll ask for the receipt...even if it's only for a few bucks and make them enter in their register so they have to remit those taxes.
  11. Yowzers!!!!
  12. Way to go Scott! Both on the fish and the life realization. You are right...fishing can be addictive and relationship destroying if taken to the extreme. It sounds like you are a much happier man...keeping a balance in life is what it's all about. That being said, I still want to fish with you in the spring...LOL.
  13. Wow...I was working at the time...and I didn't know anything was even going on! The power didn't even flicker at the office. I took the train today, so I never even looked out on Yonge. Good thing I did though since traffic was all closed off. Here's the news story.... http://www.citynews.ca/news/news_20005.aspx Hydro Explosion Causes Huge Power Outage Tuesday February 26, 2008 CityNews.ca Staff Just in time for rush hour, a block of roads in Toronto's north end are shut down. A hydro vault exploded, sending black smoke into the air, around 3pm Tuesday. Power is out from Bathurst west to Bayview and St. Clair north to Eglinton. Eglinton has reopened, after it was closed to traffic from Yonge to Mt Pleasant. The closure lasted for almost three hours at the height of the evening commute. It appears that the blast was caused by an electrical shortage. Denise Attallah, spokesperson for Toronto Hydro, said that power is nearly restored. "Fire services and crews are on working to determine the damage and start repairing," she confirmed. No one was hurt.
  14. Hey Will, I've noticed something... It seems that when you are not wearing a hat, you catch nice fish or great numbers.......coincidence??? This was the day you caught around 20 bass...compared to Bly and me combined oh...7. Another great fish...
  15. Nothing in the east GTA either...came down as snow and melted on contact.
  16. Hey wait a minute....where did you find this? That's me when I was a kid...LOL. At least I dont wear diapers anymore. Great little video Gerritt! He certainly has all the moves down!
  17. Looks like Beans is gonna be awake for a few days...going fishing??
  18. I've been meaning to get this done this winter as well. Congrats and thanks for the reminder!
  19. Hmm...there were some explanations that just dont add up. The govt's official story is that it was Columaris bacteria that caused it, yet they didn't find any in Scugog carp, where the die off began. I think it had something to do with aliens....the truth is out there.
  20. Wow...here's the news story...at least it ended and no one was hurt! I cant see this sort of thing happening a lot up here though...after all, we do tend to be a bit complacent! As long as people will pay for the gas, the price will keep going up....and for most of us, it's not a luxury, but a necessity. We'll begin to cut other things out of our budgets before gas. http://www.citynews.ca/news/news_19979.aspx Highway 400 Reopens Following Bomb Scare Tuesday February 26, 2008 CityNews.ca Staff A tense standoff between police and a man threatening to blow himself up has ended. Highway 400 reopened in both directions at Aurora Rd. overnight after the man surrendered to authorities following several hours of negotiating. It all began at about 9:30pm Monday, when the man allegedly told police he'd detonate several propane tanks in his car when the next tanker truck drove by. The suspect, 44-year-old Roderick Anderson of Nottawasaga Township, turned himself over to police just after 1am. He faces several charges. The closure meant thousands of drivers were stuck on the road for hours, wondering what was going on. "Been here for two hours," noted Allen Mizrachi. "Some people are running out of gas and it's getting cold out." Another motorist, Joe Tiano, added, "Look at this. It's for miles. We'll get home eventually." And driver Geoff Perry complained, "I think it's rather ridiculous. We've got to work in the morning and so does everyone else here. What's going on up there?" The highway was reopened in both directions by 3am, meaning a wait of several hours for some people and undoubtedly a tiring day at work on Tuesday.
  21. Sure must have been a tasty meal! Great job out there!
  22. Amazing Will!! Guess it was a little better than catching dinky perch the day before eh?? The one you got there in your first pic is a great size....did you have it for dinner yesterday?
  23. Awesome video and great day on the ice. If I knew enough to catch fish like that thru the ice, I'd be out there more often!! LOL
  24. Mike...wow...you've shown us once again how it's done! Great fish and pics...and happy you were able to get away from all that work for a well deserved break. One thing...did they beg you on their own accord or did you put them up to it so you'd have some ammo to use with your wife???? Great stuff!
  25. He revealed it to Bly in a drunken state at Lakair last year...sworn to secrecy of course.... The reciepe that is...get yer mind out of the gutter!!
