So, I'm in the market for a new guitar, and trying to decide which direction to go. I've got my epiphone les paul, which I love, and find pretty versatile, so I'm looking for a bit of a different sound. I want something with some solid twang...something bluesy. Either a tele or a hollow-body of...

Check this site out, my wife and I love their products. http://www.kidzmed.com/ccp0-display/splash.html The nebulizer and the no-touch thermometre especially for us. And the pacifier medicine dispenser, awesome idea. Whatever makes my life easier as a parent is good in my books.

Just curious what the OG age demographic is like. Sorry if done before. I'm 35.

Has anyone tried the Nexen winter tires from Walmart ? I think they are $65 a tire right now. Just wondering if anyone around here had them on their car last winter. Reviews please.

Hey All, I'm considering switching my home phone over to Rogers from Bell. I haven't really had any issues with Bell, but I've got my Cable, Internet and now Wireless with Rogers and there are bundle discounts that come into play. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with Rogers home...

I had a guy from National Home Service show up at my place last week. Wants to replace my 10+ year hot water tank to an Energy Star rated tank. Not sure if i should... Anyone have them ring your door bell?

Anyone had a chance to play with this yet? Any first impressions?

The other day a new CD arrived in my mail. Now this wouldn't be a strange event, but it happens to be one by a Canadian artist that should be known to a much bigger audience. James Clark Jones (aka chiantibro for any TGN folks), has released Dispatch from Purgatory which in my humble opinion may...

Awesome! I hope they do this! :laughing::laughing::laughing: http://jam.canoe.ca/Movies/2009/09/19/10987786-sun.html

Does anyone have any experience terminating cable and phone line ends? We ran some new lines in the basement and I need them hooked to the wall plates as well the proper connectors on the other ends to connect into the box.

Here's the situation: SWMBO just brought home a computer from work because they got new ones. Its an IBM Lenovo, 3.4 Ghz Pentium 4, 80 GB HD, with 500 mb RAM - IOW old but still serviceable. All the software was removed - including the OS which according to the sticker on the case was Windows XP...

Hi, My parent's-in-law, could do with a new cleaner. Anyone have any recommendations for the Alta Vista area?. Preferably someone who could maybe occasionally do other things like the odd meal here and there too.

not sure if it's possible to put an away message on our profiles for challenges and stuff. so i'll put a message here. (please move if there is a better spot for it). i'm away until monday, going to a cottage, no internet available. i'll bring my pitching wedge and practice some chips. ...

This steams me up and reaks of unethical behavior. Manderley on the Green included gratuity in all their beverage prices from the beverage cart. Have I ever once been told this? No. Have I been tipping about 40% all summer long? Yes. Shouldn't the management insist that the young ladies...

Wow, hands down the best in the city. Farmer's Pick on Prince of Wales and Meadowlands. I'm drenched in sweat, and might heart my stop, but sooo worth it. For the spicy meat lovers. (insert joke here) Awesome for NFL BBQ

Now that the legislation has passed in Ontario that we are not allowed to use our phonies in our cars unless on hands-free, what are people using? I have a Blackberry Pearl and a Blackberry Bold and need to find a good solution. Any ideas? What are others doing?

Any good local shops recommended? Anyone with some extras, and of course legit, from a certified provider (Cuban shop, duty free, those certified La Habana shops?). If anyone has any, humidified and kept, or likes a local shop, let me know - not many days left to let cigar smoke hit the air,...

I'll obviously up-grade to an N series router, but I'm at a loss as to what make or...

How does Stub Hub stay open? Are they circumventing the scalping laws in some way? They are definitely not an underground operation, and the website seems legit. That being said, tickets are constantly sold for well in excess of their face value. For example, I just bought a ticket for a...

My oldest's first day of JK today. So annoying that I can't send her with a peanut butter sandwich, or some granola bars, and a ton of other things... :wallbash:wallbash:wallbash:hissyfit::hissyfit::hissyfit:

This is a long shot, but thought I'd ask. Playing in the ryder cup event tomorrow, and while I'm crossing my fingers that it doesn't get too wet, it would be good to be prepared. I've got a decent jacket from MEC, but was wondering if anyone has a pair of pants I could maybe borrow for the...

Have a Happy Birthday tomorrow LBH! :cheers

Love watching them on Discovery and Oasis etc. Morgan Freeman of course is the king at this moment. Leslie Nielson has a great voice for them too but everytime he talks all I hear is "Nice beaver". Let's say you were making a golf documentary, who would you choose for your narrator?

Serious question here. How do you go about telling an older family member they're a bad driver...that they need to improve their driving skills or find another way around? The person in question is not at the point where they are a menace, or beyond help, but they need to be made aware of their...

Don't know if you'll get hit up there but it was wild in Brampton for about 45 minutes...The lightening was unbelievable , water coming down in waves...90 minutes later , you could see blue patches in the sky...Just a crazy storm

I have a friend's bachelor party coming up and am looking for suggestions regarding funny stuff we can do that's on the clean side of things... we're not going the stripper / humiliation route, so it does make it tough to come up with ideas. If you have any suggestions, they would be greatly...

I'm all about the docs right now. I just watch a movie called shark water. Give it a watch, its so sad. I don't consider hollywood movies like braveheart to be documentaries :) So, what are some of the best ones you've ever seen? Even a 20-30min tv show is fine. I watched one called...

Melissa Brandt still chuckles when she talks about the mischievous little guy. And since her holiday snapshot was posted on National Geographic's website last week, the rest of the world is getting a kick out of the squirrel whose curiosity got the better of him. "The squirrel picture," as...

The rock legend who invented the solid body electric and created one of the most recognizable guitars in the world passed away yesterday. Also invented the 8 track and multi track recording. A true pioneer in rock. I'll be taking Katarina out for an extra long jam session tonight in tribute....

A friend of mine was just generously gifted an authentic Carey Price jersey and he was looking to get it signed so that he could frame it. Does anyone have any idea of how he can go about doing this? Is it just as easy as sending it off to the Canadiens and having him sign it when he can, and then...

OK fellas--got the spreadsheet out. Really confused. Whats your opinion on which one to buy--I am staying away from the in-dash models---if the prices get any lower they may have to start paying us :-)

Hey, Looks like the house may need re-shingling. As I plan on keeping it for sometime, I was thinking of installing aluminum shingles. Anyone else install? If so, thoughts? Mike

They're having a 20% off sale right now. We use their hats for our kids and ourselves, they're fantastic and worth the price. I just ordered myself the golf hat. Anyway, just an FYI and a recommendation.
