Dave, I work for Tim Horton's. I am in charge of awarding this particular prize. When would you like to collect your "kick in the balls"???

Why would they play the American anthem prior to a game between a Canadian team & a team from Quebec???

Sweet!!! Some great pics & frickin' gorgeous fish! Thanks for that...

Both teams(Flames & Oilers) are looking pretty good right now; probably woulda made for a fun game. Since I was in Edmonchuk yesterday, I actually watched the Oilers game. Figured it was game over when they went down 3-1 early in the third; then, young Mr. Hall put the team on his shoulders & scored 3 straight goals for the win! Good for him! Now, back to our regularly scheduled Flames thread... GO FLAMES GO!!!

One day, in line at the company cafeteria, Joe says to Mike, "My elbow hurts like hell. I guess I'd better see a doctor." "Listen, you don't have to spend that kind of money," Mike replies. "There's a diagnostic computer down at Costco. Just give it a urine sample and the computer will tell you what's wrong and what to do about it. It takes ten seconds and costs ten dollars. A lot cheaper than a doctor." So, Joe deposits a urine sample in a small jar and takes it to Costco. He deposits ten dollars and the computer lights up and asks for the urine sample. He pours the sample into the slot and waits. Ten seconds later, the computer ejects a printout: "You have tennis elbow. Soak your arm in warm water and avoid heavy activity. It will improve in two weeks. Thank you for shopping at Costco." That evening, while thinking how amazing this new technology was, Joe began wondering if the computer could be fooled. He mixed some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his wife and daughter, and a sperm sample from himself for good measure. Joe hurries back to Costco, eager to check the results. He deposits ten dollars, pours in his concoction, and awaits the results. The computer prints the following: 1. Your tap water is too hard. Get a water softener. (Aisle 9) 2. Your dog has ringworm. Bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo. (Aisle 7) 3. Your daughter has a cocaine habit. Get her into rehab. 4. Your wife is pregnant. Twins. They aren't yours. Get a lawyer. 5. If you don't stop playing with yourself, your elbow will never get better. Thank you for shopping at Costco!

Great pics, Bandi! Love the underwater shot of that fat brown...

Happy Birthday, Tex; try not to break a hip on the bunny hill tomorrow!

Prolly some Dutchman in a big ole cattleman's truck playin' chicken with 'em!!!

Very kewl, S.D.; nice find!

Sounds like y'all had a great day, Tex; good on ya! Regarding the part about how lucky we are to live here, you're preaching to the choir, my friend; I agree wholeheartedly. I wasn't born here, but I'm proud to consider myself an Albertan!

I like me a nice bacon & Nutella sammich; sweet`n`salty deliciousness!!!

Check your wife's purse. Maybe she has your EYEballs in there, too...

Not soon enough, Dutchman. My New Year's resolution is to fish my 2wt in some of that water, accompanied by a big Dutch fella who's name sounds like Mexican food to those who don't know better. I've never actually kept a resolution yet; first time for everything, right???

Great link, Kevin. Those bears are hard on cameras, ain't they?

Better safe than sorry, I figure. Doesn't hurt to stay under 30kmh for a few hundred metres....

Holy crap on a cracker, Tex! Sorry about yer luck... Of course, your misfortune is our gain here at FlyFishCalgary; thanks for the story. Just for the record: maybe if you sat down & typed out a few more of your entertaining tales, Jared wouldn't have to come by & sabotage yer vehicles, just to force another one outta ya???? Good luck with the Ridgeline; sounds pretty sweet!

Heck, no.... Live minnow/dew worm combo....
