12 Volt Man

if you are into tropical adventures, 'Where is Joe Merchant?" by Jimmy Buffett is hard to beat, even if you are not a parrothead.

in terms of saving the city money, its worth noting that the police investigations concerning him as a direct result of his unacceptable behaviour, are costing the tax payers of Toronto a fortune.. don't forget this.

the one thing that has really bugged me about the whole Ford story is that for months before the proof of the crack video, Ford was attacking the media claiming they were lying, it was a witch hunt, slander etc etc etc. and it was all true and they were correct in their reporting all along. where is Ford's apology to the media?

you do realize the only reason he is going to rehab is because he is trying to get re elected and it looks good right? this should not go far in anyone's books because he is only doing this now because of the ballot. he got caught and he needs to try and get sympathy. its crap. if he wasn't running again he wouldn't be in rehab. he would just be doing the 'im sorry' angle he has done 10000x before.. luckily most people seem smart enough now to see right through the Bull. he needs to resign.

did they fight the battle against their own racism, sexism and homophobia too? probably not. people are focusing on the drugs/booze and forgetting about all the other stuff this man has done.

but what about all the sexist, racist, homophobic stuff he rants about? there is NO rehab for being a jerk

lol I thought this thread was going to be about fart lighting haha

yup. I also work in the field. Raw sewage is 99.9 percent water at full strength. contrary to the chocolate pudding like stuff they show in the comedy movies LOL. with rain effect high flows, its super dilute with rain water. fact is, municipalities cannot build treatment plants with the tankage to handle the few big rain events we have per year. doing so would cost a fortune as mentioned (not to mention land use etc) and for most of the year that capacity would not be in use. in addtion, certain treatment process steps are a 'bottleneck' and can only handle so much flow through at a time. at our plant, we only 'bypass' a few times per year (either heavy rains or rain events with snow melt) typically, bypass flows only occur when our plant flow are 3x our normal capacity. so we have 3x as much water trying to come through the system at these times compared to what the plant is designed to handle.. its insane. and busy lol.

to be fair here, the mistake was not made by either doctor. family doctors and specialists do not interpret Ultrasound/ CT results. this is done by a radiologist, who then sends their interpretation in the form of a report to the physician issuing the request for the tests. so, yes a radiologist potentially made a mistake. but it was not either doctor's fault by the sounds of it. they are reporting what they were told.

it was actually the shoreline of a well known park in hamilton.

first of many I hope! got this brute on a mepps black fury casting from shore. Released to be caught again another day

very nice. we are going there in January. I have been many times and have caught lots of fish using a 3 peice travel rod that I bring down. mainly on crank baits/rapalas. Rat L traps work very well casting in the surf off the beach. I am looking foward to trying the new Rippin Rapala lipless bait too, in the white colour (1/2oz size) I have never caught anything big yet, but I have seen 4 foot snook, a jack creavalle as big as a table and 6 foot tarpon in Jolly Harbour Marina before. I have caught lots of snappers, cuda and jacks. Ladyfish too. but nothing over a few pounds. I plan on beating the curse and hooking into something big on this next trip. I haven't been in 10 years so I am really looking forward to going back to the island. I am looking to hook into some bonefish if possible using jigs off the beach. When I was on my honeymoon in 2012 in nassau bahamas I caught bonefish using jigs off the beach and it was amazing. insanely strong for their size! half moon bay is awesome. great waves and good snorkelling off the far end of the beach. have a great trip and post a trip report with fish pics!

hang on: he FIRED his chief of staff for asking him to get help back in may. what does that say about Mr. Ford? not much sympathy from me. he called the media maggots for reporting the 100% truth and fired those around him who wanted him to get help. exactly like Lance armstrong did: destroy those who said he was on drugs, then he comes out and says he was on drugs after all. Ford sounds like a person truly deserving of our sympathies. NOT he is not an angel wrestling with demons like some portray him to be. he is a real jerk wrestling with demons. big difference.

actually, he did because later on in the radio program a caller asked him what exactly he was apologizing for and he stated two things: 1. being drunk in public 2. st. patrick's day 2012 I guess he was drunk then too. so he specifically avoided apologizing to the media or for lying to the people of toronto about the video his character is appalling.

my biggest issue with the whole Rob Ford scandal is this: for months he lied and said that there was no video and that it 'doesn't exist' he INSULTED the media and called them 'maggots' because he claimed it was all a 'smear campaign' about a video that didn't exist. now, the video surfaces. does Rob Ford apologize to the media for his comments since the video was real after all? no. he won't even apologize to them or for lying about it. he apologizes for being drunk. which is totally unrelated. this makes him a jerk and a pitiful person. sorry. even worse, his supporters are perfectly okay with all of this. which is a sad thing. he needs to be removed. or step down. he has made TO the embarassment of the nation. even CNN is talking about it

probably right. no such thing as too much hahahaha

you are looking at too much porn on your computer..

cabelas.ca might work cabelas now has a canadian site and they are opening a store in barrie next year according to the website. I still order off of cabelas.com and they send stuff usually in about 4 days but I do have to pay for the shipping which is a pain (eg. 14 $ for 5 rattlin rapalas etc) but they are quick

A lot of fish are in fact heading to the US side because the prices at the US Targets are still better.

RE: tasering don't forget that the taser is not the non deadly weapon that it was made out to be when they first came out. people die all the time from one taser shot. just yesterday another person died in BC from a taser shot. yes it makes news but its becoming very common. so even if they had tasered him initially as the only means of subduing him, he still could have died. best way to avoid getting tasered is not to commit criminal acts. I do agree the media is portraying this knife wielding nutcase as a saint. he was not.

sad story all around. he had a knife in one hand and his dick in the other (seriously) My boss mentioned this and I thought he was kidding until I read the reports. a disturbed individual. so sad that he had to be shot 9 times then tasered (What the hell?) when he could have just put down the knife and been alive for his family and friends. this cop was just as nuts by the sounds of it. but again, we don't know all the facts. sucks all around

Loomis and Shimano's, like all the other hosts LOL

it could be. Shimano has fallen a long way from even just a few years ago. and I am a shimano guy. I just try and buy as much of last years models as I can. cause the new stuff is not nearly as good as the older models. and they insist on putting EVA foam on everything, from rod handles to reel handles. ugh. and yet the prices continue to stay the same or go up..

its okay. I'm sure Bob is too. I used to laugh at the old TNN shows like Roland Martin, Bill Dance etc. Roland used to promote spiderwire rods and reels (Mitchell) and Bill used to promote Quantumn.. yet on the floor of their boats you could see the odd unmistakable green of a Curado reel every once and a while lol

this year was good for me, although I didn't get up north this summer like I usually do, since I got married and honeymooned in the bahamas . I did, however, catch my first ever bonefish right off the beach at Sandals in Nassau Bahamas, which was a real highlight for me. they truly do fight harder than just about anything in the ocean for their size. I also landed my largest salmon ever, a 24 pound superfat female this fall out of lake ontario: so it was a great year for me
