  5. Information I heard on 680 this morning said it was a 42 year old Oshawa man, who launched from the Whitby Harbour.... Hoping for a good ending, but it's not looking optimistic...
  6. WOW!!! Did it try to mate with your tire?????
  7. Wow! You don't hear enough about these experiences...esp on the river! Great report.
  8. That's a really cool looking fish. Roy...that's a huge one in that pic!
  9. Was really hoping it wouldn't go there as well...but in hindsight maybe I shouldn't have started this thread!
  10. Fantastic report!!! The scenery is breath taking to say the least. Looked like a perfect family vacation
  11. Rumours were flying here as well about Toronto being a potential target...the downtown core. So I hopped on the 401, switched on the news in the car, and heard the Pickering Nuke Plant may also be a target...perfect...as the MTO office I went to that day was literally a minute from there. I wasn't frightened by it...to be truthful, I was a bit numb from what I had seen on TV. My building...a note went out saying that anyone who wanted to leave for the day could just go.
  12. With the 10th anniversary coming up this Sunday it got me thinking back to the day it all happened. Where were you when you first heard about it? What do you remember about that day? For me, I was in a meeting with the VP of advertising. There was a knock at the door and another VP said to "turn on the TV". My boss said "what channel?". His reply was "Any channel". This was just after the first plane struck. That meeting ended and I headed back to my office, which had a TV in it. When I turned the corner it was mobbed...I pushed my way inside and a few minutes later the second plane hit the towers. It went deadly silent in there...then people started heading towards their phones. It happened a day before my birthday and I had to renew my driver's license, so I left early for the day to get that done. The 401 was deserted and for the first time EVER there was not a single person in line at the MTO...seems everyone was glued to a TV set somewhere. Hard to believe it's been 10 years...
  13. It's all about the lure!! <embed src="http://www.ebaumsworld.com/player.swf" allowScriptAccess="always" flashvars="id1=19432" wmode="opaque" width="567" height="345" allowfullscreen="true" />
  14. Wow...thanks... Heeeeeeey....wait a minute! I asked how he got there, not what he was doing once he got there. I want my money back!!!!!
  15. Just copy and paste it Brian...it looks like a broken link (youtu.be???), but it worked for me.
  16. I know what you mean...it's horrifying The first fire drill my office had after 9-11, as I was walking down 12 flights of stairs, my knees went weak imagining those trying to get out as the towers collapsed.
  17. Looks like fun! I can feel my vertabrae pressing on my discs as they hit the water though!!!!!!
  18. I like "Hey Joe?!"
  19. Under 10 lbs it's a pickeral. Ten and more pounds its a walleye!
  20. When you see a fly on the ceiling...do you ever wonder if it was flying upside down and landed? Or did it fly normally...and at the very last split second flip upside down and land? Hmmmmmmmm.
  21. Pavol Demitra, Igor Korelev, Canadian head coach Brad McCrimmon passed away along with many others...an entire team and coaching staff gone in an instant... Canadian coach McCrimmon among 43 dead in Russian plane crash MOSCOW—Canadian coach Brad McCrimmon is among the dead in a Russian plane crash that happened Wednesday while the jet was taking off in western Russia, killing 43 people and critically injuring two others. The Russian Emergency Situations Ministry said the Yak-42, part of an aging fleet that was to have been taken out of service next year, crashed immediately after taking off from an airport near the city of Yaroslavl, on the Volga River, 240 kilometres northeast of Moscow. The plane was carrying the Lokomotiv hockey team from Yaroslavl to Minsk, the capital of Belarus where it was to play Thursday against Dynamo Minsk in the opening game of the season of the Continental Hockey League (KHL). There were 45 people — 37 passengers and eight crew members — on board, the ministry said. Citing preliminary information, the ministry said two people survived and were taken to hospital. It was one of the worst plane crashes ever involving a sports team. KHL confirmed that Canadian Brad McCrimmon was among the dead. McCrimmon took over as head coach in May. A native of Saskatchewan, the 52-year-old was most recently an assistant coach with the Detroit Red Wings, and played for years in the NHL for Boston, Philadelphia, Detroit, Hartford and Phoenix. Officials said Russian player Alexander Galimov survived the crash along with a crewmember. Eleven foreign players were reportedly onboard the jet. A Czech Embassy official said Czech players Josef Vasicek, Karel Rachunek and Jan Marek were among those killed, and Latvian officials confirmed the death of Latvian defenceman Karlis Skrastins. Swedish goalie Stefan Liv was also confirmed dead. Read more at Read more...click here Another link...
