I use a beef and pork mixture in my Meat Loaf. I also add ketchup, mustard, tomato sauce, chopped onions, and a bunch of stuff I would have to kill you if I told you! One thing that everyone likes is adding hard boiled eggs to the centre of the loaf. Each slice will have egg in the middle. I also add a pound of bacon in a weave on top of the loaf. The guys at our GTG's always ask me to make meatloaf on our trips... HH PS... left overs get a grilling on both sides and a couple of slices of Swiss Cheese melted on top.

Sail filing for Chapter 11 restructuring
Headhunter replied to Headhunter's topic in General Discussion
Glad they're keeping the Shwa store open. I usually go to Gagnon's first, then get whatever else I "need" at Sail. Growing up in London, my buddies and I would ride our bikes across town to the Outdoor Store on Oxford Street. It sure beat CTC for selection and price! HH -
Thanks for the correction, Long term Care it is... Take a look at the attached and the number of Chartwell facilities... https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/ontario-covid19-ltc-chart-1.5557748 HH

One of the largest private retirement homes here in Ontario is a company called Chartwell. They are for profit and on the board of directors is a guy named Mike Harris. Look up his comp package and you will see where the $$ went... and it didn't go to the residents! HH

Looking to replace Garage doors ALL DONE!
Headhunter replied to ketchenany's topic in Non-Outdoors Open Discussion
My original door was wood as well. It faces west and as a result, it takes the most weather and sun. I knew it was time to change when my son shot a ball hockey ball through the lower pane. As I said, I didn't know the difference between doors.... Good luck with your purchase.... HH -
Looking to replace Garage doors ALL DONE!
Headhunter replied to ketchenany's topic in Non-Outdoors Open Discussion
Why couldn't you just buy a regular door and apply Styrofoam sheets to the back side of the panels yourself? I fully admit that I have no experience with insulated doors, but aren't they simply insulated from the back side? Wouldn't it be cheaper to do this yourself after a trip to HD and a tube of adhesive? HH -

Replaced my two car garage door about 5 years ago. I didn't go insulated and if I recall correctly, it was in the range of $1500.00. HH -

My neighbours with young kids, under 10, have pretty much told me that they are done with this social distancing thing as their kids are driving them crazy. They have been interacting together for a couple of weeks now... we stay away from them! The knuckle heads at Bellwood are probably just like my neighbours, tired of being locked up in their million dollar condos waiting for the weather to get better. Their phones probably told them is was ok to do pretty much anything they want. RE businesses returning to normal... well, I can't help but think that companies are going to look at the costs associated with a large office presence and decide to close up offices and have a remote staff working from their homes. If there is one thing that C19 has taught us is that employees can be highly effective working from home. Why pay the high price of square footage is down town T.O.? Some of my clients have historically shunned staff working from home, C19 has changed that for good. To quote one of my favorite comedians, "You can't fix stupid" HH

Is the split ring at the front an add on? HH -
Has anyone tried using crushed Pork Rinds as a replacement for breading? Talking with a relative and that is what they have been using instead of bread. i have not tried it yet, but apparently it works really well with fish and chicken. HH

My lead core set up is similar to my other trolling setups. TDR 8ft, heavy action rod combined with a large capacity reel. You don't need a line counter with lead core as you count your colours in the water to repeat you lure's tracking depth. You will need to put mono backing on the reel before you put the lead core on, how much is determined by the capacity of the reel.... this is where the fun starts! Lead Core takes up a lot of real estate on a reel. It is important to remember that the actual lead in the lead core only provides sinking qualities, it does not provide line strength, the sheath does that. So, how do I connect the lead core to backing and leader material? A buddy of mine, former PWT Pro showed me a trick.... Pull back the sheath and cut back 2-3 inches of the lead core. Insert your backing /leader material into the sheath, until it butts up to the internal core. Tack the end of the sheath/leader material with a drop of super glue. Let it dry completely. (This holds the LC in place as it is want to move around) Once dry, soak the section of the sheath and leader, all 2-3 inches with super glue, allow to dry (a couple of minutes). You now have a seamless connection that will not only hold forever, but can easily be reeled through the rod and onto the reel. For most walleye applications, you can get away with 5 colours on the reel as any more starts to get you into the kill zone for pickereye. I use a heavy action rod because I usually run lead core off of boards and need the backbone as both the boards and the lead core have a fair amount of drag in the water. Also, remember that when using lead core, your reel drag will become almost useless. They just don't work well with LC, so yet another reason to use a heavier rod. Once you have figured out how LC works and how easy it is to repeat success, it will always be in your boat! HH

We found out that we lost my wife's aunt to the virus yesterday. She was in a home, late 80's in age. It was touch and go last weekend, she spiked a fever, than on Monday, she felt good and was eating ice cream. Her fever spiked again on Tuesday and by Thursday, she was gone. This thing is decimating our older population. We need to stay the course to save who we can. HH

Some things I wonder about the COVID-19 pandemic
Headhunter replied to MJIG's topic in Non-Outdoors Open Discussion
It's my understanding that 20% who go on ventilator survive... 80% don't. There has been chatter that ventilators may well be the wrong approach to this virus. HH
