  1. I think Cowboy Kenny is familiar with this one. Avoid
  2. Disappointed we can't discuss anything interesting or meaningful. I was going to show a tear-face, but I think all the emoticons are disabled.
  3. The recent guilty verdict of Attempted Murder against former TO police constable James Forcillo prompted the Yatim family lawyer to speak out on the virtues of public videos. Note: This case concerned the shooting by police of 18yr old Sammy Yatim on a TO street car. Yatim had a knife in hand and was warned by police to drop it. Yatim didn't drop the knife & the police shot him. Sammy was shot several times and killed. The police (Forcillo) claimed that after Sammy was first shot, the boy attempted to rise again and lunge at them with a knife. A video taken by an on-looker recorded the events and disproved the police claims. During a press conference after sentencing, the Yatim lawyer launched into a speech about if it were not for the video, the presumption of truth would have lain on the side of the police. Yatim's lawyer went on to say that the defense team complained about a video of Sammy's killing being allowed as evidence in the trial because it represented an unfair bias against their client - it was "Trial by YouTube". I won't go on with the details, but I'm curious - how many of you out there believe that there is now an "us against them" culture between the public and police. Are the police out of control hooligans who have the absolute freedom to kill with the state's sanction? Do the public need to protect themselves and record all police encounters? Do the cops need a vest video camera to keep them on the straight & narrow side of the law?
  4. Cast your vote, who will win the U.S. Presidential election: 1. Bright Orange Bigot 2. Self Serving Hag
  5. Well, let's get back on track shall we? I really look forward to the election, so we don't have to suffer through any more Trump-this and Trump-that nonsense. The press responds to all the outrageous crap this A-hole pumps out & this gives him a monopoly on the headlines. Can somebody in head office at the press-offices just push the "stop it" button. Please? We've already overdosed on the other so called news worthy celebrities (Kartrashians, Hiltons, etc). It's like a monstrous, out of control useless-information machine. I agree it's Headlines, but holy crap, aren't there other worthwhile events that need more attention?
  6. Ask yourself: "How would a tryst end?" When it comes to 3-way relationships, the answer is nearly always: "Badly". Best of luck.
  7. You can't help but feel a sly bit of admiration for a guy who said publicly, he would date his daughter. He is really pulling out all the stops to get public attention no matter how outrageous or incredibly narcissistic it might appear. He understands more than most that the extreme nonsense he comes up with doesn't mean Jack. All it is supposed to do it get attention. And while people are busy saying "uhhhh, wut?", he slips in key phrases to fire-up, motivate and manipulate a crowd. If one or two people come out and publicly say something sellable like: "He tells it like it is.." - then it must be a "movement". It must be true because more than one person has said it. He understands the pulse of the nation? - About the only thing he understands is branding. That's literally all he's got. The medium is the message. Let me, as an admiring Canadian, be the first to come out and tell it like it is: I like his short, well-manicured, pudgy fingers. They remind me of those tasty little sausage wieners. You know, the tasty little salt-pounded, fat-injected heart stoppers that look great in the packaging and even better served on a plate. But wait until you get a real taste - see you in the line-up for the John.
  8. I for one don't mind seeing family pictures. I'm a family man. I value family mementos such as pictures. It is a pleasure for me to be welcomed by a companion to share her space and a little slice of her personality. Now, that being said - it could be awkward if I were to recognize a family member. Absolute discretion is of course always necessary and I wouldn't cross that privacy line by saying anything to anyone. By displaying pictures, you remove that choice of privacy from your loved one. Why take that chance.
  9. If you had to choose to live your life with only one condiment, which would you pick? You only have a choice of 4 condiments (I know, life is so unfair). 1. Ketchup (Heinz plain) 2. Mustard (French's yellow) 3. Relish (Bick's sweet green) 4. Mayonnaise (Hellman's)
  10. I agree with the previous posters for sure. Although he may have left the party early, MacKay had his fun, left his scent but forgot to flush after leaving a mess. His judgement is rather impaired...remember Belinda & like Cato says: Helicopters & Bill C-36? He isn't PM material anyway IMO; he's more of a 2nd banana kinda' guy.
  11. I was kidding around a little. Sorry, I shouldn't be an ass. The pics are stolen from Ashley.
  12. Tell 'er (Ashley Martelle) Jabba says hello.
  13. It wouldn't be a discussion about Star Wars if the Mighty Jabba didn't give his best wishes to the story. Hope the new flick returns respect to the empire. Ho Ho Ho Ho....
  14. If all you posted was your contact number, you'd get slugs like me asking what your number is...despite the fact that we just dialed your number. The sad irony is that we're being earnestly stupid.
  15. There are other ladies here who have recommendations and use their own pics.
  16. One of the pics got 104 hits on TinEye, another got 22. Not a promising start. Check with the Cowboy - he might have some sage advice.
  17. Tongue in cheek here: Our friends in the U.S. border services will have good reason to mistrust our drug-addled society. Hope you like random body cavity exams.
  18. Something is lurking out there that is guaranteed to drive you around the bend creep-out wise. It could be a sight, sound, smell, touch or taste. For me, I can't hack chewing on Aluminum Foil. I don't do it often, sometimes by accident. It happens sometimes when I take a bite out of something that was wrapped in foil and I bite a little further than I should have . Maybe a shawarma, ice cream bar. AAAACCK! Just thinking about it makes the fillings in my teeth want to drop out. ...what does it for you?
  19. My automatic dishwasher just died last night. Rats. Have to get a new one installed. Rats. Don't want to spend money. Rats. I had a Kitchen-Aid & it lasted about 15yrs. I'd say I got good use out of the thing. Does anyone have any recommendations about the brands? I know appliances are made somewhere in the same factory by Asian multi-nationals - but are they all of equal quality?
  20. Heard the latest that the AM CEO resigned. He was also a member - big surprise. I believe, maybe shortsightedly, this hack stink will be relatively short lived but long remembered. Are we gonna learn anything?...maybe, but that too will be short-lived. Wait until the next big stink. But here we have an incredibly powerful information tool at our fingertips - and what do we do with it?...entrust our foolish souls to those who would stand to profit. AM: It's a game - how much do you have to lose? Client: A lot. AM: Ok, give me money and I'll place you in jeopardy. Client: Ok - here is lots of cash. AM: Right, thanksalot you foolish twit. Please feel free to continue to trust us. Oh, and while you're trusting us, here is a really big set of sharp scissors. Run as fast & carefree as you can with these. You can have two pairs if you like. Client: What happens if I get scared? AM: For extra money, we can take our scissors back and you'll be really safe. Trust us. We like you. Now give us your money. I'm not trivializing the harm and harsh realities of how this hack has affected peoples lives. I'm just pointing-out that it's human behaviour to always explore the lowest possible denominator. While doing so, like children we don't always care to understand the consequences. Most likely, the hackers will enjoy the fruits of their labour soon.
  21. yEP - Deadern'r a doornail is more than just an expression.
