  1. Awesome Video man. I've never seen it before.
  2. Good game tonight, although only listened to the final 30 minutes or so (damn PPV!). Glad to see us win another OT game, gives me hope for the playoffs.
  3. Well, I didn't actually do the math, but if your working 40hr/ week @ 11.00/ hr your making $440/week and 880$ a paycheque, and only 1740$ a month then you better have a tight budget (without income tax mind you). So you better be renting a 1 bedroom apartment for less than $600 month, eat only $200 a month in grocery, have no car payment, pay very little insurance and not purchase to many items you dont need. Just saying $11.00/ hour in Calgary with regular hours isn't very prosperous.
  4. Wow huge money... lol. Good for kids still in College or for some summer work, but you can't live on $11.00 an hr in Calgary unless you work 70 hours/week.
  5. I've never been in a Bass pro shop, but have been in Cabela's many times, and once you get over the shock and awe of the size it's really not that impressive (In terms of the fly fishing section). They seem to stock like 5-6 main items, but have like 500 of them in different sizes and colours.
  6. What do "Bass Pro Shops" pay there employee's? I could use a Career change!!!!!!
  7. Not exactly our best photo... but i like the Redneck quality of this photo...lol. The caterpillar is cool too.

    Photo Test

    Yeah, you did it!
  10. Lol, nice. Is your Cat on a leash?
  11. I know this was a year or two back, but wow!, that is one damn big rainbow! heres the story as well: (From Trophytroutguide.com) Bend, Oregon and Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada – Somebody once said, “records are made to be broken." One of the premiere freshwater world records fell a few weeks ago. Trophytroutguide.com announces that partner angler Adam Konrad of Saskatoon, SK., has landed the largest rainbow trout ever documented on 6-6-07. The huge fish weighed an astonishing 43.6 LB on a certified scale. With a girth of 34 in. and a length of 38.5 in., the fish was almost as big around as it was long! The fish came out of the Lake Diefenbaker system, which is a virtually unknown trophy trout fishery located in Saskatchewan, Canada. Adam and his twin brother Sean, have been pounding some of the biggest rainbows in the world for some time now. They both own IGFA line class records and now the all-tackle record, which just happened to be caught on 6 LB. test. A Mepps Syclops spoon did the trick. The old record has stood since 1970 when David White caught a 42.2 pound rainbow near Bell Island Alaska. Adam has submitted his IGFA application for the new record and a source at IGFA says that Adam’s application has been received and is in process. When the application goes through, Adam will hold the new all tackle world record for rainbow trout. Adam has partnered up with trophytroutguide.com to create a DVD with footage of his world record catch. This will certainly be something that trophy trout aficionados will want to see! Rick Arnold of trophytroutguide.com said this is a “huge deal” and one of the most exciting things to happen in the trophy trout world over the last 40 years. Congratulations Adam and Sean! This truly is the "fish of a lifetime"!
  12. Like he said above, Facebook is great for keeping in touch with people and friends who live far away, or who you never seem to call. Which is everyone for me, I hate the talking in a phone 1/2 the night. I think a lot of people who don't know what facebook is, they think it's the next "My Space", but it is definately different. You mean to say Taco that someone (significant other) hasn't already set you up in facebook??? that seems to be the most common way someone gets hooked...
  13. Wasted a nice 5 on 3... not looking so good. Although Halak has robbed us like 5 times so far
  14. Well, probably around 10-12 in one day on the bow...Now on Stauffer.. that's a different ball game... At least 12+ in less than 5 hours.
  15. Thanks for the suggestions. I seem to be having some transmission trouble (lots of bad noises) and was wondering what places in the city have a good reputation. If you get into the wrong shop with tranny trouble they can really take you for a ride. thanks in advance. p.s. I will stay away from change auto & transmission
  16. That's Ironic.... I'm pounding Columbia's best as I watch.... mmmmmmmmmm Good
  17. Yeah, I was just joking. Sundin has @%#& the bed since he's been playing, and he has been in the box for like 3 game winning goals so far. Luongo has also looked human, which is good for flames fans. Brendon Shanahan has been way more useful as a devil and they are only gonna pay him something like $500,000 this year... not bad
  18. Your right about the nucks, and Sundin has fit in GREAT! lol
  19. Thanks man, Welcome to FFC! How's the Steelhead season treating you? Drew
  20. Ok, OK... Bad attempt a humor. I have nothing against Ministers, Priests, Church or Religion, but plenty of stories have recently surfaced of sexual misconduct in the catholic system. Although none of this proves anything, and heck, I don't even know if Mr. Tillmans father was Catholic. SO my bad.
  21. I just hope they start Huet and not Khabibulin, he has freakin owned us since 2004. But i'm pretty sure they will start him.
  22. Agreed, just an obvious observation. Hope it works out for both parties, although it's not likely
  23. Boston Globe: Sexual scandals strike at highest level of US Catholic Church Eight US Roman Catholic prelates have resigned since 1990 because of their alleged involvement in sex scandals; seven cases involved the abuse of minors. Two other bishops, Cardinal Bernard Law of Boston and Bishop Manuel Moreno of Tucson, Ariz., resigned over their mishandling of abusive clergy. The New york Times: Accused of Sexual Assault, Archbishop Seeks to Retire Archbishop Rembert G. Weakland of Milwaukee asked the Vatican yesterday to speed up his retirement, hours after a man gave a television interview saying the archbishop had sexually assaulted him when he was a 33-year-old graduate student, then paid him $450,000 in 1998 in a confidential settlement. Dec. 12, 2003 St. Petersburg bishop puts price on sex abuse claims St. Petersburg's diocese has spent more than $1-million to settle sex abuse claims. Bishop Robert Lynch apologizes and offers details. Sept. 10, 2003 Sex abuse costs church $85-million Victims feel vindicated by the Boston settlement - the largest yet in the priest scandal. Sept. 3, 2003 Accused of abuse, priest is on leave The Rev. Timothy Kelley voluntarily steps aside after a former altar boy says he was molested in 1983. July 31, 2003 Like new archbishop, ceremony humble BOSTON - Sean Patrick O'Malley begged forgiveness from the victims of clergy sexual abuse Wednesday as he was installed as the new Roman Catholic archbishop of Boston and promised a new start for a community fractured by scandal. July 24, 2003 Report: Boston priests may have molested over 1,000 BOSTON - An in-depth examination of sexual abuse in the Boston Archdiocese found that Roman Catholic priests and other workers probably molested more than 1,000 people over six decades. The Massachusetts attorney general called the figures "staggering" Wednesday as he issued a report with the findings. See my point????? A pattern has developed, that's all.
  24. Plus his father is a Minister, which means Mr. Tillman was probably sexually assaulted as a kid as well.... but until the facts come out, it's all just speculation.
  25. Fan960 Rocks! Mike Richards, Doug Kirkwood, Rob Kerr, Peter Maher!! come on. The most entertaining station in the city, well, other than 660 NEWS! ...lol
