Umm...how do I answer this... I was the guy who analyzed the profit/loss potential on all products submitted for television that that couple starred in. It was up to me to make sure that the product would 1) make money and 2) was consistent with our overall advertising strategy. So...you could kind of say I was responsible...but I wasn't involved in the creative direction of that campaign that chose to use them in our ads. Awaiting the eggs to be thrown....and puts on a float suit and ski goggles....LOL

Welcome to the board! From your intro, it sounds like you'll fit right in!

Hey Shawn....I have one that I no longer need. Tell you what...I'll trade you the cushion for your extra transom saver....hehe. I used to use it all the time, but now that I'm using the Corolla all the time my head hits the ceiling of the car....LOL.

On second thought...I'm sure it's just fine....

My neighbour told me about the concrete floor thing when I first got it, so when it's not in use or charging, it's always sitting on a 2" thick piece of styrofoam to insulate it. It's good to know about how to store it over the winter....I was going to post a thread on it soon anyways.....thanks guys!

I debated on the plywood, but decided to use it for stability. I'll have to look for a container to put under it though....I like the idea of winterizing it while on the stand.

Yes they do expire Steve....I'll be happy to dispose of it for you. By the way...what size are you?

Hey now....just because I work for Canadian Tire, doesn't mean I know that annoying couple....and no, they do not live beside me....LOL. If they did, they'd have been disappointed that I didn't buy the casters from Can Tire....LOL.

Well, after the storm we had yesterday and the fact that the Kawarthas are now closed, I've come to the realization that I'd have to get the boat and motor ready for winter. I'll be storing the motor in my insulated garage...it never goes below freezing in there, so I figured I'd have to buy a cart to hold the motor. After doing some research online and seeing prices that ranged up to 200 bucks, I figured they couldn't be that hard to make. I went to Rona...bought 2 two by fours at $2.83 a piece....a small piece of small plywood for $5.00 and $25 on casters. I did a quick drawing and I began work on my project. I was surprised it turned out as well as it did as I am NOT that handy when it comes to projects like this. Anyhow, here's a few pics of the finished project....and I saved a bunch of money in the process. I had a 2 by 6 in the garage already. One of the casters is locking....just in case it decides to head down the driveway....LOL. I just have to remember to engage it..... I'll be painting it with marine grade paint so that it'll last a few years at least. It's surprisingly sturdy and easy to push around the garage.

I'm with Mike...if it's down that way I'd only be able to make it if it's a Friday or Saturday....maybe Sunday.

Wow...I just might take up ice fishing if I had that thing!!! LOL.....that's pretty sweet.

So...where exactly is that and how do I get there?? LOL.

Here's a link to see live traffic cameras for the 401, 400 and 404. http://www.mto.gov.on.ca/english/traveller...era/camhome.htm

I was in Michigan when that storm hit and I had to drive to downtown Toronto a few days after it passed. It took me 4 hours to get from Lansing, Michigan to Yonge/401, and then 3 hours to get from the 401 down to Front Street. If I didn't have tickets to the Leaf game that night, I would have just headed to Ajax where I was living at the time....LOL. I decided to try some side streets, but they were all ONE lane only. After trying to navigate them, I went straight back to Yonge because I figured sooner or later I would encounter an emergency vehicle coming the other way and I'd block them. Yes...people laughed when Mel called the army, but when there is no where to put the snow in a city this size, it paralyzes it. Lew...I didn't know about their real involvement...thanks for the info.

Check these listings out...not exactly what you were looking for they may be ok.... http://toronto.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-b...QQAdIdZ29419443 http://toronto.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-b...QQAdIdZ28060366

LOL...nah...you can keep it all Wayne. Good thing you covered the trench!

What are you running now Mike?

Boy...what a disappointment....we only have about 2 cm of snow....LOL. Not even enough to cover the grass and they have just canceled the winter storm warning for Toronto. I should have just gone fishing!!

Looks like a fine boat GNODDY....go for it! What is your gut tellin you?

Coming down as ice pellets in my neck of the woods now!!!

Anyone?? anyone??

Gerritt...generally speaking you are right...less demand higher prices, but in this case there is a key factor that you are forgetting. Supply of electricity. If supply exceeds demand, then prices will go down. Right now, during peak times, we import electricity for a LOT more than we can produce it. If this brings down consumption to the point where it equals demand then it will stabilize prices. If demand can fall and supply is in excess, then prices fall AND we can export that extra stuff and make more profit on it. Is this making sense? Jeez...I think I just used my university education (I have a BA in Economics)....wow...only took 20 years to use something I learned in school....LOL.

Jeff...G2Gs are about old friends getting together and meeting new friends as well. I'm glad you enjoyed yourself...and hope to see you at other G2Gs. The Lakair one in the summer is a blast as well...there are no floater suits that weekend so you can take lots of pictures....LOL. This was a great report and pretty much sums up what these events are all about!!

Since 2 oclock this afternoon...just before my last meeting. Do I win?
