Cool. Enjoy. Don't use the washrooms at Starbucks!

I've got two children. I'll be getting Disney+. We switched providers a in the spring and had HBO, Crave, et al, included for six months free. It was nice but the platform sucked. Hopefully, the new app is better. That being said, I realized how little cable TV I watch now. I was looking for upcoming Xmas shows to record and found my PVR was empty, with the exception of a few Bomber games. I also realized that I didn't know any of the regular cable TV shows anymore. If I could get sports and cut the cord, I would. But I can't get it reliably without paying big $$$ for subscriptions.

Netflix hikes subscription prices in Canada https://www.cbc.ca/news/entertainment/netflix-canada-price-hike-1.4925299 The basic Netflix Canada plan — which does not offer ultra high-definition 4K video and allows streaming on one device at a time — rises a dollar to $9.99 a month. Netflix's standard plan will now cost $3 more — or $13.99 a month — to watch content on two devices at the same time. Premium plan subscribers pay $3 more — or $16.99 a month — to watch TV shows and movies on four devices at the same time and in HD and ultra HD video. Wow, a $3 hike to my plan? That's quite a bit.

Foul play, obviously. CBC article: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/thelma-krull-homicide-investigation-winnipeg-1.4925450 She was involved physical altercation and was forcibly removed from the city's Valley Gardens area, according to police. Investigators said Thursday they believe the suspect was familiar with the area and may live, work or is somehow connected with the area and had reason to be there. I'm sure some in the family were still holding out hope but I hope finding her remains provides some sense of closure. Now they'll have to endure the criminal investigation, which undoubtedly include investigating them.

Is that a cube satellite? (Also, what's up with your avatar, Frosty?)

But how much more expensive is a Canadian O-Lineman than a Canadian in another position. It's great to have the flexibility but quality, American O-Linemen are cheap, relatively speaking.

I think he has an opportunity to go to the NFL though. But, if he's not starting here, there is no way the NFL is coming for him. I believe his time down south is done.

Niku is a goal a game player at the NHL level. Everything is fine!

I would say as soon as the defenses adjusted to him and his style, he struggled more.
-
Really? Streveler was at 63% completion percentage for the first three games, then only 56% for the rest of the season. For me, right now, Streveler not hitting the receivers is the biggest concern I have with him. I see Streveler starting for us in 2020, regularly, if he continues to develop but not before that (barring injury to Nichols).

STD is horrible. Slow, rude and constantly blaming the restaurant when there are delays.I won't give them any business. God forbid you have to be on Market in the evening, where their drivers double-park block the street, block the sidewalk (standing there and smoking) and don't bother looking before driving or wait for pedestrians.
-
Streveler missed a wide open Harris on a designed and practiced play when it mattered most. The biggest knock on Srteveler is that he can't hit receivers. I'm sure he'll develop but he's still a long ways away from being a starter.

That's a weird way to frame it... Switch killer? Nintendo succeeds with inferior tech because they get the games right for their market. People like the 'childish' games and that's why it succeeds. If you're a real gamer, you probably have multiple systems anyhow. But, I guess it's good that Sony may be re-entering the portable gaming market. More competition is usually good.

Central Park 5 is all you need to look at. Trump is a racist and his actions and policies are racist. Can't allow those who are trying to deflect and pretend change the facts.
-
Trump is not ruling out pardoning Manafort. Of course he's not. Trump and his campaign colluded with foreign governments to steal an election. It's all part of the plan. Setting things up for 2020.
-
Of course he can do multiple things at once but what's he's currently doing is investing CFL resources and time into Mexico, which, as far as I know, is not a priority of the CFL. This league has real problems in key markets, labour relations, and the on field product. So far, crickets on the real issues facing the CFL... Maybe he'll add another a Spanish speaking ref?!

That doesn't make any sense. If I'm a borderline player, I can go, get paid and get a better chance at the NFL by signing with the AAF.
-
I don't see it. If you're not projected to get drafted, why would you take a chance to become an unsigned FA? Lots of NFL wannabes come to the CFL first. Why wouldn't they just stick it out, make more and get better exposure?
-
I don't see it that way... If I'm a college player and I think I can play in the NFL but doubt I'll get drafted, why wouldn't I go to the AAF this winter? I get to play, prove myself and my contract has an NFL out clause. I make USD and get to stay at home. Can't see a reason why I wouldn't?

Not long after I started at PH, they changed their cheese. It became a lot drier and, presumably, cheaper to produce. It was quite noticeable to the staff and caused a lot of burned pizzas. Cheese came frozen in a large box. It took several days to thaw out in the walk-in cooler. Quite often, at busy times, we would swap boxes of cheese with other stores if it was too frozen and they had some that were thawed. Actually, we were pretty well run, so it was other stores looking to swap with us.

Miss Ping's famous ping pong ball trick. (Not to be confused with Wynona Ryder's famous ping pong ball trick 😉)

The House gets to do all the dirty work now and the GOP just watched everything happen, hoping that everyone forgets that they enabled this behaviour.

If you're having a stuffed crust, they spray a garlic flavoured spray on the crust. It's meant to give you the hint of garlic in the crust without going to the expense or trouble of actually putting garlic in the crust. When I worked there, they did not add anything to the pan pizza. Part of the challenge, and for anyone who has done frying, is that the dough sits in the oil and slowly heats. That causes the oil to absorb into the crust, which impairs the taste. If it were truly fried, added to hot oil, then it would just fry the outside, making it crispy. As it is, it's kind of crispy at first but mostly becomes soggy and very greasy.
