  1. I feel for everyone here who can't see their kids and grandkids. While the boss and I don't have any rugrats, not seeing sisters and bro, and friends, leaves a huge hole. I can't begin to imagine how much catching up there will be when we turn the tide, and put this in the rear view mirror. be safe, stay safe everyone.
  2. If the lakes are given a temporary reprieve from getting hammered, how different will the fishing be once things ease up ? will we see more pb's ? will we see more monsters that have been feasting all spring/summer ?
  3. thanks for mentioning this, forgot to clarify. But yeah, can see opportunists coming out of the woodwork to scam people.
  4. was at Mt Sinai at the NICU and my phone was put into a small UV unit for sterilizing (?). didn't take very long. as well UV bulbs can be bought at most home reno stores. just don't stare at the bulbs.
  5. pull it up and give yourself a new casting deck or bin it lol
  6. it's in the garage and not likely coming out any time soon...
  7. I can't think of better neighbours to have (well maybe Australians) so there's no anti Americanism here. In all my trips across the border, business or personal, I've never met friendlier people. Great people in Dunedin, Boston, and even New Jersey .As well, our PM has already ruled out retaliatory measures, cuz that gets us nowhere. be safe, stay safe everyone
  8. Cdn Tire is now non essential. people are trying to shop now before it becomes curbside or delivery only. we shld have dropped the hammer weeks ago.
  9. I don't see problem with it. whether it's a direct analogy or not is not *that* important to me. The message is that we let them land and we took care of them. so the shoe is *almost* on the other foot today, and instead of denying us landing rights, he's denying us ppe, which we need. I get wanting to keep them for themselves. but they're reacting to poor planning, and as 3M has stated, this could lead to retaliatory measures, which will hurt both the US, and the rest of the world. Basically, stuff like this will lead others to believe the US will not have their backs when the chips are down.
  10. we're all gonna be looking like grizzly adams by the time we get over this pandemic. not sure I want to go at my hair with a pair of scissors and a mirror lol be safe, and stay safe everyone
  11. you can be sure that people will be holding Columbus Day Regattas much earlier this year. will be same thing as spring break beach crowds. it's the demographic that laughs in the face of the risks
  12. with people losing their jobs left, right and centre, someone wanting to launch their boat is so low on the list of priorities imo. sorry, but I think this petition is tone deaf.
  13. yup, been trying to fill some xtra cans while I can. always have gas stored at my off grid cabin up north.
  14. only drink coffee when camping, but it's either a French press, Percolator (preferred method) or cowboy coffee (when canoe tripping). If the latter, will either stir before the pour, or if Im feeling saucy, grab the pot and swing in wide circles (like softball wind ups)...then pour if I haven't made a mess. mandatory is Forty Creek Irish Cream, no matter how the coffee is made.
  15. well now Dollarama is considered essential ffs.
  16. feel for the athletes who spent the last four years training, but glad to hear most of them put people's health over the five ring circus. guess the IOC will have another year to booze it up and spend $$$$$
  17. thanks, this is a great idea. will soak a bunch of shop towels and put in sealed container/zip lock. wish there was a no odour bleach out there...
  18. May ? not a chance in hell things are back to normal in May. Could be tough finding a lodge that's even open. ymmv, and def stay safe
  19. man I wish I could find a store that had wipes in stock. it's gone as soon as it hits the shelf...
  20. not to be alarmist Cliff, but I'd haul tail and get back here asap. No coverage in the US is a recipe for massive headaches. stay safe edit- caught up, and see that you're heading back tomorrow. whew...
  21. awesome day. safe to say I make a valiant effort to polish off all those morsels lol they look absolutely delish
  22. god those beach finds look awesome, making me hungry for some kumamotos ! nothing beats feast right from the sea. for oysters, I also suggest a good towel to place the oysters on, and to wrap over the bivalve as you slide the shucker in.
  23. making a mid career pivot can be intimidating but cld be best thing to do. the loss of free internet sucks but if the job is better, small price to pay. good luck and congrats on making this decision !
  24. thats a big ouchie bro (as riley would say lol)
