  1. Really, the comp pick thing again? This is so stupid.
  2. I LOVE Molson Export, but I haven't been able to find it in years.
  3. Hahaha....pinky out dude!
  4. Let me guess. Wine? I have a rippin hangover from drinking white wine last night. Red doesn't do it to me.
  5. I was in Seattle for a week last year, and went to a joint that had something like 250 beers on tap. It was overwhelming. I wonder how they ensure that all the beer stays fresh?
  6. What the heck are you talking about?
  7. Thanks for blowing it
  8. What kind of name is Kony, anyway? #notarealname
  9. Yeah, Hebert is really nice. Great fishing obviously, but it is really nice to completely "unplug" and get away from civilization. When I was a kid they didn't have flushing toilets, so going to the bathroom in the morning in the outhouse was horrendous, but now they have indoor showers and toilets in each cabin. They also now have a satellite phone for emergencies. I remember back in the day my Father joking that if someone died we would have to prop their body up in the corner until mid-week when the plane came in with supplies There are only 4 cabins on the entire lake, so it is really low-key. And there is a guide that stays there all season long to help you find the fish (although it's not difficult), but they usually speak very limited english. The drive on the dirt road to Clova is absolutely brutal. I think it usually takes us 8-10 hours to go about 65 miles. There were times when the road was completely washed out, and we would have to shovel dirt into the holes so we could pass. Craziness. Supposedly, they take better care of the road now. We'll see. That Lake Kipawa place looks very nice. I like that you can fish for bass as well. The lake looks huge though! How do you find your spots? Do you get a guide? The cabins look very nice too.
  10. Go Bonnies! Syracuse needs URI to lose today.
  11. Syracuse is the salt city. What better a mascot than the salty cracker? Damned PC pigs. K State winning this game would not be good for us, BTW.
  12. I was drinking Lawson's Sip of Sunshine all last weekend up in Burlington. Delicious.
  13. http://www.tamarac.ca/walleye-fishing-trip-at-lake-hebert.php This is where we go. Amazing walleye and northern pike fishing. I caught a 13 pound walleye when I was 10 years old. Thought I was pulling in a manatee.
  14. I always thought it had to do with the Irish Protestants, but I guess not. It appears as though the name "orangemen" kinda happened by accident and was adopted. http://www.syracuse.com/orangesports/index.ssf/2004/05/origins_of_orange_colors_nicknames_and_mascots_of_syracuse_sports_over_the_years.html
  15. Corey Davis or Jamal Adams and I'm happy. Make it happen, Doug.
  16. This sounds great. I love salt water fishing. My folks have a place down in MB, and we go down twice a year and do a ton of pier fishing. Catch a lot of spanish mackerel, bluefish, and whiting with the occasional black drum or flounder. My Father has crab traps too, and we sometimes get into the stone crabs. I was watching a YouTube video with my son last night...a dude kayak fishing for flounder in what looked like the FL keys. It looked like a lot of fun. The guy had his kayak all rigged up.
  17. Bose ear buds for me. Sounds great. A little bass heavy but I like that.
  18. I'd rather draft Davis or Williams. Preferably Davis.
  19. Uggghhh.... Going to be white knuckling it on selection Sunday. Again.
  20. If Norwood did offer help and was graciously declined, I bet he wouldn't go flapping his lips about it to make the franchise look bad.
  21. I love fishing. I was lucky to grow up with a great dad who loved fishing, and always brought me with him when he and his buddies went out. My son recently turned 7, and he really took to fishing last summer. I'm an educator, and I get summers off, so we would go about 3-4 times per week. A lot of small lakes loaded with bass around where I live in central Vermont. My Father turned 68 this year, and has a spinal condition which will cause him to lose mobility within the next year or so. He told me that the one thing he really wanted to do before that happened was to go on one more trip up to Lac Hebert in Quebec. Amazing Walleye and Northern Pike fishing. We're going in early September with a bunch of friends and relatives. Pretty excited bout that.
