i'd be happy with a little drought any day now. it can rain all it wants at night as long as the temp stays about 10 during the day and the sun comes out

Lake Sundance Calgary Perch Netting 10 Am May 8
ladystrange replied to a topic in General Chat - Fishing Related
pgk - some jerk off tossed in a bunch of perch that then took over the natural eco-system, which has led to the ruin of many put/take and trophy lakes in Alberta. all because some ***hat (s) from (a place where perch are abundant) decided that it would be a good idea because they were too lazy and ignorant to bother to figure out how to fish for trout. before you start dragging your PETA and greenpeace idealisms in to the mix, try to at least make the effort to pretend to know what you are talking about. here's a thought, try doing some research and have an opinion based on some iota of fact. lake sundance is basically a man made, created and maintained community lake in the middle (south) side of the city, as are several other lakes that have been tainted with prolific perch. Sun- can i vote for a sunday netting day. i'm busy every saturday this month and would really love to help out -
Parking Criminals
ladystrange replied to firefrog's topic in General Chat - Not Fishing Related (NFR)
i like the disabled parking idea. designated spots that are larger than average. if you have ever tried to pull a wheel chair out of suburban while parked in a normal sized spot without whacking the car door next to you, you would appreciate the designated spots. i even like the parents with 9 kids spots and 1k worth of groceries getting the next spots over. lord knows parents trying to organize 3 kids under the age of 7 and trying to load shopping in to the vehicle is not paying too much attention to little johnny paying with the car door. at least it centralizes everyone and everyone has space. i think the reckless driving ticket needs to be higher. and wonderful people like my mother who kept using her 'broken' ankle (7 years ago) as an excuse because it hurts to walk that far should be fined a larger amount to but not on par with someone who is endangering a life with a 3000lb chunk of steel and fiberglas flying down the road at 120kph. part of the abuse comes down to doctors who sign the disability forms that allow people to get the cards when they dont need them. the doctors who sign the application should also get a fine for fraud. my mother is perfectly capable of walking an extra 50 yards. and when she whines i just tell her she shouldnt out walking around and she should go home and rest it. her doctor finally didnt sign her renewal application and gave her a lecture. for years after she broke her ankle she whined about how hard it was to get up the stairs. she didnt appreciate it when i asked her if her other foot was broken and told her to hop. she said the jumping hurt too, so i told her to crawl. she threw a pillow at me. i have very little sympathy for those who are perfectly able to do something but play games for the attention. regardless of whether you have a card or not, if you can walk the extra 50 yards without assistance (human or mechanical) or having a heart attack and dont have to get a scooter or wheelchair out of your car to move around, leave the spot for someone who cant. -
Alice's Restaurant comes to mind. officer i cannot tell a lie, i put that piece of paper with my name on it under the half a ton o garbage i couldnt live with one bag per week... only because i generally will forget for 2 wks to take the garbag out and then i have 2 bags. i could not posibly expect someone who visits 250,000 homes per week to remember that i didnt take my garbage out the week before.

One-day Golden Trout Heli Trips
ladystrange replied to Enigma's topic in General Chat - Fishing Related
i looked into this a few years ago. why?? because i am too lazy. it was with icefield heli, they were the only ones i could find. i want to say it was around 300 into michelle per person for the 15 min flight plus around $5 per pound of gear. they will take you up for the weekend or the day. done quote me, but that is what i think it was a few years ago. -

too bad calgary does have a by-law against discharge of a firearm within city limits. (except licensed est.) list includes but not limited to bows, cross bows, guns/rifles/shotguns, pellet guns, bb guns, slingshots and air soft and paint ball guns. cap guns, water guns, toy guns and plastic replicas all have to have the orange nob on the end. sigh. cayan pepper spray works to keep cats from pooping in the flower bed, probably works to keep the rabbits from munching.

SON OF A BITCH FISH! The parish priest went on a fishing trip. On the last day of his trip he hooked a monster fish and proceeded to reel it in. The guide, holding a net, yelled, "Look at the size of that Son of a Bitch!" "Son, I'm a priest. Your language is uncalled for!" "No, Father, that's what kind of fish it is - a Son of a Bitch fish!" "Really? Well then, help me land this Son of a Bitch!" Once in the boat, they marveled at the size of the monster. "Father, that's the biggest Son of a Bitch I've ever seen." "Yes, it is a big Son of a Bitch. What should I do with it?" "Why, eat it! Of course You've never tasted anything as good as Son of a Bitch!" Elated, the priest headed home to the rectory. While unloading his gear and his prize catch, Sister Mary inquired about his trip. "Take a look at this big Son of a Bitch I caught!" Sister Mary gasped and clutched her rosary, "Father!" "It's OK, Sister. That's what kind of fish it is, a Son of a Bitch fish!" "Oh, well then, what are you going to do with that big Son of a Bitch?" Sister Mary informed the priest that the new Bishop was scheduled to visit in a few days and that they should fix the Son of a Bitch for his dinner. "I'll even clean the Son of a Bitch," she said. As she was cleaning the huge fish, the Friar walked in. "What are you doing Sister?" "Father wants me to clean this big Son of a Bitch for the new Bishop's Dinner." "Sister! I'll clean it if you're so upset! Please watch your language!" "No, no, no, it's called a Son of a Bitch Fish." "Really? Well in that case, I'll fix up a great meal to go with it, and that Son of a Bitch can be the main course!" "Let me know when you've finished cleaning that Son of a Bitch." On the night of the new Bishop's visit, everything was perfect. The Friar had prepared an excellent meal. The wine was fine, and the fish was excellent. The new Bishop said, "This is great fish, where did you get it?" "I caught that Son of a Bitch!" proclaimed the proud priest. "And I cleaned the Son of a Bitch!" exclaimed the Sister. The Friar added, "And I prepared the Son of a Bitch using a special recipe!" The new Bishop looked around at each of them. A big smile crept across his face as he said, "You ****ers are my kind of people!"
