  1. Congrats Wayne and family! Have a great holiday and when you get back... we can talk about that tie!!!!! WOW, we need to go shoppin Bud! HH
  2. Thanks to all who have replied... great info there and especially to DanC for removing the rose coloured glasses I've been wearing and getting me to think that my dream trip is significantly more within my reach... if I can afford the gas!LOL And to Moosebunk for clearing up the difference between flying in and a 5 star hotel!LOL HH
  3. No problem FnS! Just make sure you get insurance for it... to ensure that we can get it out on Quinte in December!!!LOL I'll drop it off at your house on the way home from Picton! HH PS... just drop the keys in the mail box... I'll figure it out!
  4. Congrats to you and your family! I have only two words of advice for you... DIAPER GENIE!!!!! HH
  5. One of my life passions is to some day, fly into a remote lake, spend a week in the wilderness, catch fish and enjoy the company of like minded people. After reading some of the threads lately about "challenges" some have faced with these services, the question that comes to mind is; "Is this kind of situation common? Have others had similar experiences at other camps as well?" What do you look for when making a decision about which camp to I spend my hard earned money on? Obviously, a resource such as this is a good starting point, but what else do you do/use to make a "buying" decision. Thanks, HH
  6. Here's my dry rub recipe; 3 parts Kosher salt 3 parts garlic powder 3 parts Paprika one part cayene pepper one part onion powder one part oregeno one part thyme one part basil one part cracked black pepper one part chili powder Combine all the ingredients PS... this is an AWESOME RUB for wings as well! Generously rub onto FULL RACKS and wrap and store in the fridge over night if possible. Grilling: You will be using the in-direct method to cook on the grill. This method requires you to light the BBQ and bring it up to approx. 350degrees. Once the temp is obtained, shut ONE side of the BBQ off. Lay the full racks on the side that's off, stacking the racks on top of each other. (This method does require multiple racks or you can simple cut the full rack in half and stack them on each other that way) Rotate the racks every 20 min to 1/2 hour, putting the bottom rack at the top. Eventually, all of the ribs will have been both at the bottom of the pile and at the top. Continue to do this, until the ribs have cooked through. Feel free to add more of the dry rub, every time you rotate the racks. Should you wish to add BBQ sauce, wait until the ribs are almost done cooking, or the sauce will burn onto the ribs. I have another recipe that does include boiling, but you indicated that you wanted the "dry" version and I think this has worked best for me in the past! Good luck Joey... What time should I arrive! HH
  7. I knew it wasn't the camera jinxin yah... it was that little FishnSled voodoo doll I had made up! I didn't know you were going out this weekend past, or I would have engaged it's magic! Nice report and pics bud! HH
  8. Asked the service rep at my dealership what injector cleaner to use on my 4.3 ltr. Jimmy. Was told not to use any as it will muck up the injector and intake manifold gasket. So, I haven't used it at all! Might be worth lookin into before you run some through your engine. HH
  9. Just announced that the Islanders have bought out Yashin's contract, all four remaining years! Didn't he used to play for Ottawa as well? LOL Maybe the Islanders will take Alfie off there hands! HH
  10. Hey Rick, a little black electrical tape on the lense of your dashboard should stop that light from bothering you! HH
  11. Thanks for the heads up Ketchenany! I'm doing the moving myself... the truck is rented, most of the "bodies" lined up, just have to get the rest of our stuff packed up and we're ready to go! Un-packing can be done over time... I can always fill up the garage, sit by the pool and take ten years to unpack! HH
  12. As many of you may remember, my family and I will be moving into our new house at the end of June. I've been spending my lunch hours calling all of the folks who provide us with service, including, but not limited to utilities. Rogers was easy, no charges etc. Bell on the other hand, insisted that I am to pay a $55.00 fee, to get service in my new house. I escalated the call to customer service, by threatening to cancel my Bell service completely and go with VOIP (Rogers) and I would still get to keep my old number! They then moved my call to a group called Customer Retention. The guy on the phone was helpful, but could not wave the fee... but (after much arm waving by me) he did find that he could credit my account for $75.00 as a sign of good faith! It just goes to show that the squeaky wheel gets the grease! Now, today, I called Toronto Hydro to move my account to the new house. They want to charge me $30.00 to "open a new account". I said, nay nay! It's not a new account! She had already told me that they would wave the $400.00 deposit because I have had an account for 20 something years and had a great payment record! Apparently I should be thankful! Huh! SO I went on to tell her that it can't be a new account as obviously she had just told me that I'm a preferred customer! I'm still working on getting this fee waived, I'm told to wait 48 hours for a return call from a supervisor. Why does it always seem like the middle income guy, always gets the shaft! $30.00 here, a debt reduction cost there ($10.00 every two months) where and when does the little guy finally not get shafted by these MONOPOLIES Just thought I'd pass this along and hopefully save some folks some money! If you don't ask/insist, you will pay! HH
  13. Be careful of mortaliy rates using wire on small bodies of water. If your planning on catch and release, you might want to re-consider. If yer huntin meat, why not give it a go? HH
  14. Although I hate wearing the stuff, I do almost always carry "sweater in a bottle" or more commonly know as spf 40! You will still get a tan, just not one that turns into water blisters! Also, be aware that many bug repellents act like baby oil on your skin and attract the sun. Nothing says sun tan like baked in Muskoil! HH
  15. I can't cheer for the Sens for a few reasons... I hate Alfredson... they play in Ottawa... and I hate Alfredson! Oh and did I mention that I hate Alfredson! As a life long Leaf fan, I simply can't cheer for any of our main rivals! If you really want to see fans in a pickel, and I know it can't happen in the finals, but if Ottawa and Montreal were playing each other in the finals, I'd watch the Jays! Simply can't cheer for either of them... makes my Leaf blue blood boil! HH Oh yah, I hate Alfredson!
  16. Sweet report! Thanks for posting! HH
  17. I use cedar "shakes" instead of planks! Can buy a bundle at Home Depot for under $5! Just be sure to buy the "east coast" cedar shakes as the are 10% of the cost of west coast "shingles"! HH
  18. Apparently Wayne has lots of fuel so I'll be heading up there when I need some! Here we go again! Assume the position! HH
  19. It's called a "bro" (man bra) and it's available from George Costanza's father or Kramer on line! Nice pics and glad you enjoyed a feed! HH
  20. I've worked at the north tower of the Eaton Centre for the last four years... it is definately getting worse! There are so many scams going on around here, mostly targeting tourists and young people who just want to go buy something at the Eaton Centre, only to be accosted upon arrival! There is no political will to do anything about it... there's no money in it for the government! HH
  21. Great lookin spotted Tarpon Clive!!!! Sweet shots and lookin forward to more! HH
  22. I believe we were "enjoying" lower gas prices a coupla years ago, when there were significantly more independent stations around. They began the price war, which again, I believe was described as being a "market share" situation. Anyone notice that there are fewer and fewer independents left? Many were bought out by the biggins, which has kept the "price waring" down significantly. No collusion my behind! HH
  23. I've caught dogfish aka Bowfin that have fought like a ..."SOT"! Biggest was around ten pounds and I was pretty sure I had a much larger fish on for the majority of the time it took to get a look at it! I can't imagine what kind of fight a 20lber would give! Also, I've caught some cats that just wouldn't give up! One day, I'll target Musky to compare! HH
  24. Right here Big Cliff! PM me if you want some help or advice The Bare! HH
  25. Install a big diving lip on that big blue beauty and start trollin it behind that big new boat... give those new rod holders a good work out.... BTW - I prefer the Perch colours to blue! :whistling: HH
