Forum: Almost Anything

Dan, For some reason I was sure that I had over 800 posts. Now I'm at 744. Did something go wrong somewhere or was I just seeing things?? :confused

Amazon's US site has the entire Bond collection on for $95.99. You'll have to pay shipping, but usually movies don't get dinged with tax or customs charges (though it's possible that they may). 42 discs in the set, so make sure you've got a comfortable couch. Here's the Link

I have a 2006 Hyundai Tuscon and have had the rear tires replaced already, by the dealership as they lost their tread after about 12k. Now, at 36k the dealership tells me all 4 tires are unsafe and need to be replaced. The service manager is suppose to call me tomorrow. My questions are 1)...

Anybody have a suggestion for a good Mother's Day brunch? Nothing too elaborate (or expensive) but serves enough for two teenage boys (human refridgerators). East end or downtown.

There are a lot of people on Ottawa Golf who say they will buy something and the buyer agrees to hold the item for them. Then the buyer never makes any attempt to pick the item up. I respect a person if they come and decide not to buy because the goods were not as described or the buyer expected...

WOW, who would have thought pirates would be the highest opening weekend ever??? 135mil??? beat the sipdey suit of toby by almost 20mil. Beat star wars highest daily gross by over 5 mil (55mil opening). Anyone seen it yet? I loved the first one. I can't beleive Depp gets paid so much money to...

I was informed last night that one of OG's Ryder Cup members, Geronamo (Jason), decided to pop the question to his lady. His resolve was strong, but apparently not strong enough. Unlike Mattchew, there was no mention of a plasma during his phone-call. Apparently negotiations are key in these...

My wife and I are looking for an excellent seafood restaurant. I have assured her that the folks that frequent this site are more than just pretty faces. Do me proud. Tell us where we should be going to celebrate our anniversary. We are not interested in restaurants whose fish comes from the...

Not sure if anyone else uses the buddy/ignore list features, but I do. I put anyone I've ever met, done a transaction with or played a round of golf with on my buddy list. And here it is: <TABLE cellSpacing=3 cellPadding=0 width="100%" border=0><TBODY><TR vAlign=top><TD id=buddylist1><LABEL...

OK, lets help each other out. Dan performed and upgrade to the forum software yesterday. What new features have you found so far? Here is what I have seen so far.... 1. When you edit a post you made, it now has a box to enete the reason for the edit :thumbsup 2. There is now a...

I am trying to decide if incorporating is right for my business. Advantages consist of limiting personal liability, which is not a major concern, and the lower tax rate for small businesses which could be nice, but I'm not sure how it all works. Disadvantages would be the added paperwork...

The currently active users does not show unless i am logged on is this normal?

So while I was using google earth to try and find out exactly which structure was Bank St Mazda (found it I'm OK), I came up with a great idea but I don't think I can make any money off of it. Roof top advertising! This is not advertising for cars going by but for the satellite pictures. ...

OR any Mod if they know the answere (sure, even Junior if he knows:-) ) How come the smileys do not work in the signature line anymore? I noticed mine and the saints don't show anymore, just the words.

Hey guys just picked up an Ipod Nano, and was wondering what type of headphones i should use for running with as the ear buds will keep falling out. Any suggestions would be great Thanks Gropper

I just bought myself a little classical guitar. Its nothing special, just a little guitar I can take to the beach without feeling any guilt about laying it down in the sand or up against some driftwood. Anyway, the body doesn't have the little peg that you need to attach a strap to, and I'd like...

Anyone ever file for an "item not recieved "on e-bay?

The other day the Team 1200 (Ottawa Sports Radio) comes on with a story about the son of Andy Reid, Head Coach, Phiadelphia Eagles, NFL, being involved with the police, AGAIN! Why is this SPORTS news? Why is this even news? Seems like the sports media has sunk to new depths lately in...

Not gonna say anything....

.....and I am officially the BEST DAD EVER!!! I walk into EB Games in Kanata because I was bored and waiting for a Dr. apt. and I see like 30 of the Rock Band bundles (which up until now were damn near impossible to find).....so I say to the kid "What's up with this? I suppose the next thing...

My GF had some pages with her business letterhead printed up. I want to scan the page (it has the letterhead in the upper left portion of the page and a company slogan along the bottom of the page) so she can type letters to her customers without having to use the seperate sheets she had made up,...

I just got a call here at work from some lady asking if I've received my new Yellow Pages phone book, and I had to stop and look around the office to see if there was one, before I could answer her. Turns out I didn't. It's not that I don't need to look up numbers every now and then, it's just...

Does anyone have experience in, or know the best method for getting a background check done ?

... And I had nothing to do with it, in case that's what you were thinking. Anyway, at my apartment building there is a small set of covered balconies built onto the back of the building. The top one has an angled roof, so some of you can probably see where this is going. After work yesterday...

Anyone know a lot about stereo components?? I'm looking at the Bose Lifestyle 48 or V30 but wonder if there's a cheaper route. I want the 'small' speakers that I can mount on the wall.

I can see grass, it's not very green, but it does mean that I should get my butt in gear and purchase a vehicle so I can enjoy the golf this year. Rather than repeat my stupid mistakes (2x) of the past, and get my shirt taken on a lease. I'm looking to purchase a used vehicle outright and not have...

I picked up my new toy yesterday :) Thanks Uncle Henry Ford for picking up 2/3's of the tab for me :P I want to get some add ons for this car. Louvers for the rear quarter panel windows. Get the stripes painted on, black out the area between the tail lights. This one is a 6 cyl. The GT...

K, so I took my car in for an oil change, fuel top up, and inspection today, ahead of my drive back to Ottawa. As expected, there were a few things to fix, but most were minor and I don't have the cash to be getting unnecessary repairs. The fuel filter and spark plugs are going, so I will...

just got one for my sister. She needed a phone with a planner so I got her this. Any idea what other cool features it has? What other fun things can it do?

Although I have not met Hoolio yet, by all accounts this should be a perfect present for him. http://coolerscooterdirect.com

Does anyone know of a good mechanic that repairs snow blowers? Looking for a good one that won't charge me and arm and a leg. Thanks

Hey, The wife and I are planning to go away for a weekend (locally) and get a break from the kids. Does anyone have any recommendations of a good place to stay in the area where we can have good food, activities etc. that is not too expensive. I looked at Chateau Montebello, but that is...

Today's CBC The Current featured an interview with Po Bronson, who published a book entitled Nurture Shock: New Children About Children. The interview is fascinating. I just listened to it as a podcast available on the CBC ( http://www.cbc.ca/thecurrent/2009/200911/20091106.html ). His point is...

I read a book a week, and it's getting to the point where my wife hates the books all over the house. So, thinking about an eReader. Anyone have one and care to share some views? And the waterproof cases for them?
