At what point in a families age does the Easter Bunny stop coming? I'm so done with that long eared bastard.

I think is was 8-9 for our house?

She's 13 now; we bought a box of her favourite chocolates and a new book by her favourite author, handed them to her as we headed out the door to the cottage Thursday night.

Well watching it turn from day to night and back to day in about 5 mins was cool. Anyone else watch it?

It was pretty neat, my 16 year old son was too cool to watch apparently

Here, it was more like a storm rolled through with dark clouds, and off it went.

I'm not much of a science or nature guy, so for me it was a "I saw it in real time", but "meh" type thing.

Sun this morning, sun now, overcast of the eclipse (although we did get a brief view as the clouds parted for a minute of two). With the diffusing effect of the clouds we didn't get the light-dark-light as well as you might hope, but pretty good.

Bottle of bubbly was nice.

That sucks. Clear skies here about an hour west of Toronto. I was surprised how significant the temperature change was.
It was cool overall but I definitely wouldn’t travel to see it like people apparently do.

Found this surfing Youtube figured some would get a laugh here or even remember this gem.

I bought a new toy yesterday, I haven't been playing much lately and am hoping this will get me to play more. It seems pretty great!

Just bought this -- bass flatter. Turns your bass into a fretless bass. If I like fretless, no doubt I'll end up springing for a real fretless bass.

I need a new TV to watch the Leafs Stanley Cup run in all of its glory. What should I get

there's a couple of seasons of Man Hunter on Netflix, it's pretty good, Waco on Prime is also good........

Depends on your budget and the size of your viewing area. We bought a 50 inch RCA LCD 6 years ago for $400 and it's still going strong. We live in a 1400 square foot townhouse so I definitely wouldn't go any bigger on the next TV. We had a 32 inch TV before that and it always seemed a tad small (but not horrible or anything).

You could probably rent one for 48 hours

I got one a few months ago. It’s pretty good for what it is. Definitely makes practicing easier (or in my case less embarrassing).

For the guitar guys.....

I'm playing rhythm at a benefit in Sept. I'd like to closely simulate the horn parts for this as there is no horn section.



Any thoughts on some pedal settings that might get me close?

 

[TheGreenTBer]

I am a beginner on guitar and just learned Don't Fear the Reaper.

I was quite disappointed to have not spawned Christopher Walken.

The end is priceless.

I have an opportunity to pick up a bookkeeping gig on the side for a small business. How difficult is it to learn Quickbooks or Freshbooks and produce monthly financial statements? I am already doing something similar at my job, I think the part I'm unsure of is filing for HST and Corporate tax because the CRA website is so convoluted

Is that a headphone amp? How is the tone. I actually owned the Tom Scholz Rockman back in the 80's. It was killer for the time.
