I'm not familiar with Daniel's Harbor. Is that up by St. Anthony and L'Anse aux Meadows? |

I'm surprised that they didn't blame George Bush and global warming. He gets the blame for everything, even tooth decay. |

I blame it on unusual vibrations set up in the Earth's crust by the odd, uneven firing order of a 45 degree cylinder, common crank v-twin internal combustion engine mounted by a system that only allows vibration in a single plane. Couldn't have been a Buell, though, because scientific research has conclusively shown that it could have this effect ONLY if vibrations were transmitted to the ground through a SINGLE ring-shaped, rubber object and Buells have two wheels. Wait! Oh my GOD! Has Newfie been doing wheelies again?!! It's the only reasonable explanation... HellBuelly J "If two men ride alike then one of them is not riding." --Leif EriksBuelly |

Got this Newfie joke on the Concours forum. A Fort McMurray game warden busted a Newfie loading a cooler full of live fish into his car. Warden: Sir, do you have a fishing license? Newfie: No sir, I don't need a fishing license. These fish are my pets. Warden: Really? Sounds like a fish story to me. I'm going to have to confiscate these fish and issue you a summons to appear in court for poaching. Newfie: Sir, these really are my pet fish. Once a week I take them down to this lake and let 'em go swimming for half an hour. Then I call 'em back, load 'em up, and take 'em back home 'til the next week. Warden: Really? That's the dumbest excuse I've ever heard in my thirty years in this business. You must be a Newfie. Tell you what. Bring your cooler down to the lake and we'll test your story out. Should be good for a laugh when I get back to the office. They take the cooler down to the lake and let the fish go for a swim. Warden: OK smart-ass, time is up. Call 'em back. Newfie: Call what back?? |

I just got back from 2 weeks in Newfoundland (thanks again Bill) & it was cccccold, the bay outside the window of Newfie's country residence, was full of pack ice! Fishing boats are trapped in the stuff & being resupplyed by helicopter. I have to say though the weather may be no great shakes the place is magnificent & well worth visiting. I'll post a pic when I get them developed. |

Grumpy, "I'll post a pic when I get them developed." What's this "develop" thing to which you refer? |

The displaced Scotsman now living in France purchased some disposable cameras. He then proceeded to the local Walmart and was amazed that a roll of film could be developed and printed for under $5.00 Canadian!!!!!! Hope the trip wasa good one Grumps!!!!! |
