  1. The games not dying but it's very expensive to get a kid all decked out with the necessary gear. If you've got a couple of kids playing...wow !

    I can't speak for everywhere but where I live, getting a sheet of ice to play on can be a problem too. People do it but I think it's a little outrageous to expect young kids to be at the rink at 5am on a school day.

    Add it all up and I think many parents are starting to wonder if it's all worth it.

    Word.

    Rep hockey is just outrageous. Hours, cost, culture...and for what?

  2. I am a bit disappointed the Toronto fans are not showing up more in force for the NFL games. The Bills did win last night and finally gave them something to cheer about. 39.000 and change showed. 14 thousand under a sellout. I hope that they come out for the regular season game against Chicago. if not, forget ever having an NFL team. Vancouver could not keep an NBA team. Montreal could not keep the Expos. and there is alot of money in 'Canada. Lets get out there and support the Bills!!!! Come on!!! We are giving up a regular season game in Buffalo. If the Bills start winning maybe it will make a difference? I know many will cross the border but I would like to see some Canadiens go to the games. Well, I guess i dont have to worry much about the Bills being moved to Toronto. They only support the Leafs. A team that has not won in ages And has not even made the playoffs in ages. I say that streak ends this year. But I wish some of the Toronto fans would show up for the Bears game and cheer on the Bills.

    80 bucks to watch stars play for 15 minutes and then a bunch of rookies who may never play a down in the NFL?

    No thanks. The quote in bold is bang on, however.

  3. Hi 'MMAharaja'

    If you could please supply your ID and full address i will get my Lawyer to send you the papers. ;)

    What a Pox Ridden Topic, all that have contributed should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves, you all know who you are and if you don't just look back at the topic contributors to see for yourself, go straight to Jail, do not Pass the Stairway to Heaven and do not collect $200s.

    The same Old Zepp haters come out every time a Topic like this comes up, the same old Pathetic Nonsense Mutterers, if i were part of the Administration Team i would put your Total Post Counts back to Zero every time you Blaspheme about The Religion that is Led Zeppelin or their Music, you have been warned. :angry::mad:

    Regards, Danny

    PS, Now FCUK OFF. :lol:

    Hilarious!

    I was just thinking that one of the many things that endeared me to this band is the LACK of bad tracks/waste/filler. ANd now i'm being asked to find 9?!?!?!?! Fuck that!

    Darlene is the only song that i've ever skipped and i'm hard pressed to think of others.

  4. Announcing Led Zeppelin tour manager Richard Cole has agreed to log onto the Facebook group The Richard Cole Appreciation Society on Friday, May 7th at 7pm to answer any questions, queries, etc. regarding his life and career in the "music business", Led Zeppelin, The Who, or the many wonderful people and places he visited during his time at the top.

    PLEASE DON'T ASK ANYTHING THAT MAY CAUSE OFFENCE OR EMBARRASSMENT TO RICHARD as he is sharing his free time and hopefully if successful this can be repeated in the near future. Oh and of course please tell your friends and anyone you think may find this of interest and let's make this a great success. Thank you one & all.

    Point of Contact: Sean Atkinson (group creator)

    Awesome. I'll be sure to be nice. Don't want to be on the receiving end of the "flick of the boot" after all...

  5. No, I don't have hearing issue. Right or wrong, others have claimed to hear it also so I can't be too nuts. It's not a big deal people. Jeez.

    I'm with you Mr. Wolf. I've alway's thought that it sounded like devil people. Not for one minute suggesting that it is or was altered, just that it sounds that way to me as well.

    I'll never get sick of watching and listening to that version of D&C. It's a masterpiece.

    Wow, amazing pics Pat. My Grandmother retired to Bancroft and i used to go visit often. Beautiful country and beautiful pictures.

  7. Well, Christmas is on the way so to Mr Matt Ashare i say:

    You're a rotter, Mr. Grinch.

    You're the king of sinful sots.

    Your heart's a dead tomato splot

    With moldy purple spots,

    Mr. Grinch.

    Your soul is an apalling dump heap overflowing

    with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable

    rubbish imaginable,

    Mangled up in tangled up knots.

    You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch.

    With a nauseaus super-naus.

    You're a crooked jerky jockey

    And you drive a crooked horse.

    Mr. Grinch.

  8. Well given the fact that we've had many a referendum on the issue it seems to me that the whole idea of sovereignty is something that the majority in Quebec don't seem to want.

    It also seems to me that a good percentage of the sovereigntists themselves are quite happy to remain part of Canada as long as we throw enough money at them. Because of this, I can't help but question the shallowness of the movement as a whole. I also think that everyone in Canada is entitled to think what they wish about the monarchy. Not everyone is a fan but, given the fact that it is mostly symbolic, I would have to take issue with any movement using it as an excuse to seperate. Canada is a diverse country where religeous freedom and ethnic traditions are respected. Like it or not, the monarchy plays no negative roll in that. Quite frankly, I think any attempt to link it or to say

    that the rest of English speaking Canada is trying squash the French traditions in Quebec

    is lame and fraught with bigotry.

    APPLAUSE!!!!!

  9. Well, I would like to see Quebec be independant one of these days just like I would love to see Canada being independant from Great- Britain. Federalism has never worked. Mainly because each provinces have its own history, its own culture, etc. Someone from Nova-Scotia doesn't think like someone from B.C. They don't share the same 'reality'.

    And, technically speaking, yes, I am Canadian. Last time I check I was living in Montreal! :P

    But in the bottom of my heart, Quebec is my country. I was speaking the other day with a friend of mine who's from New-Brunswick and he told me that, for him, Acady was his country.

    I'm sure you're proud to be Canadian and I know there's a lot to be proud of, I respect that, but my heart, my conscience and my convictions tells me that my real country is Quebec.

    Why would a Lady from another country, another Nation be my Queen? I'm French, so why a British monarch should reign over me?

    In other words, I'm a republican who's fighting to see one day, the Republic of Quebec.

    Simple as that.

    Question of convictions.

    Fair enough but let's do a hypothetical:

    You are the new President of Quebec and some issues need to be resolved with your neighbor, Canada.

    Majority Vote to separate

    Currency

    Aboriginals

    Political border

    Debt

    Health Care

    Taxation

    Military

    Education

    Language Law

    These are just some of many issues that would be of great interest to the rest of Canada, in terms of achieving an amicable departure.

    Good luck with that.

  10. I know exactly what you mean Pat. My wife and I grew up in the city and moved to the burbs in 87. Still haven't gotten used to not being able to walk down the street to do our shopping, go out for dinner etc ! The saving grace is that both of us work in the city and neither of us have lost that sense of being part of it. The burbs have their advantages but tbh, most of those advantages are tempered by the fact that you pretty much have to drive everywhere to do things . Even going to the pub or out for dinner is a hassel. I've got one local boozer that I can realistically walk to. When we lived in the city, you could take your pick and if you had to travel a little further, you could hop on a bus and be there in no time. I'm probably making it sound all bad. It's not but as they say, you can take the person out of the city but you can't take the city out of the person. Just wish I could afford to live in it :lol:

    Damn, that's the story of my life as well...word for word.

    Leave it to Ally to start the suburban stampede... :D

  11. Have to get clarifications Charles; what is an "Independandist" exactly, and can this term be utilized when we're refering to you being Canadian - you are a Canadian citizen correct (a three part question)?

    I believe that "Independantist" is a less inflammatory new term to describe separatism.

    Perhaps Mr. Obscure would care to elaborate?

  12. Traffic in Toronto: A catastrophe!

    I really have no idea how anybody can enjoy the sights in this city when it takes 15 minutes to travel 1 block.

    Seriously, it's gone beyond abnormal.

    (should be in Pet Peeves but WTH)

  13. Which, of course, doesn't mean he's gone. He's here right now, enjoying every moment of the shit he's stirred. You just have to feel sorry for people like that, because it's beyond pathetic.

    That lowlife had to be the most shameful part of this sites history...as well as EM. I almost left the site forever over "that".

  15. Please don't flame me, please, please, please.

    But I know Chad Kroeger is a huge fan. He was on VH1's what is at the top of your personal playlist thingie.

    When you see him talk about being at the reunion concert, his awe of them is so apparent. Wish I could link you to it, but I don't know how.

    Anyway, he described being there as "life-altering". Pretty high praise.

    Nothing wrong with that at all...it's all good.
