  1. Oh, wow---we got nearly 13 mm of rain yesterday!!
  2. and here in Wasaga Beach they walk on the wrong side of the road to boot! And, no they are not all widows of any description!!
  3. oooh, now I can't wait to try that stuff!!! The next time I'm in a drunken stupor...............
  4. How much was a chisel to write on those stone tablets???
  5. according to the report, a fence blew down and allowed the dog out unto the street. It didn't sound like it was on the loose often Of course we don't really know the facts-----just what was in the media reports. The relationship between those 2 things can be quite tenuous!!!
  6. Have you looked at the price of cigs lately? Incredible!! I'm old enough to remember guys who said they would quit if they ever reached $1 a pack. I'm sure there are kids who are suffering while their parents puff away the family budget.
  7. Small correction here-----I think Mike's writing would have stood out from the crowd. That's why he's worried!!
  8. A bit better now that Harper is gone!! Now I've gone from being horrified by our government to merely disappointed!
  9. How would you like to have a job and get second guessed by a groundhog??
  10. The weather network regularly grossly overpredicts the amount of rain.
  11. Special Weather Statement Issued at 10:55 Tuesday 27 October 2015 Summary Moisture laden fall storm with rain and gusty winds on tap. A large shield of rain associated with this storm is forecast to spread into Southwestern Ontario tonight and reach the Golden Horseshoe area by Wednesday morning. The rain will continue to March steadily into Central and Eastern Ontario through the day on Wednesday. The rain will likely become heavy at times as the low pressure area deepens. Latest indications continue to suggest 25 to 40 mm of rain in most areas. Locally higher amounts of 40 to 50 mm are possible, especially near lakes Erie and Ontario. A clap or two of thunder is quite possible over a few locales, along with rainfall approaching Environment Canada's rainfall warning criterion of 50 mm within 24 hours. Additionally, strong and gusty southerly winds are forecast to develop on Wednesday over Southwestern Ontario then on Wednesday night over remaining parts of Southern Ontario. Wind gusts to 70 km/h are likely in most areas. Even stronger winds are quite possible near the eastern ends of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario, where wind gusts may approach the warning threshold of 90 km/h. Winds will become southwesterly on Thursday with strong gusts possible. These winds may be strong enough to cause some tree damage and local power outages, especially in areas where trees remain in partial to full leaf. The rain and strong winds will end by Friday as the fall storm moves away into Northern Quebec.
  12. maybe the first issue should come with a free bib---just to catch the drools!!!
  13. I would approach that very carefully with my 15' pole. I wouldn't touch it at all with my 10' pole!
  14. sounds like what they used to say about communism: "What's not forbidden is mandatory"
  15. maybe, but I don't want to know those types!!
  16. I assume the laws will be provincial just as they are for alcohol, but with local by-laws providing further restrictions as happend now with smoking.
  17. A different kind of drug ad. http://www.tutorialous.com/this-drug-commercial-is-gonna-blow-your-mind-p1869
  18. I don't think it was silly at all. Just a sad fact about our society---Canadian as well as American and, in case any Brits are tuned in----you too, very much so.
  19. Maybe they've been watching "The Grey" movie!!
  20. You are one lucky man to have a wife who can smile while in a boat with the snow drifting by!!
  21. After running over it he got out and shot it. So the danger of a miss was still there. Can a cop 'miss' if he's essentially aiming at the ground?
  22. Congrats, Mike! I have always enjoyed your writing!
