  1. I a. all for vaccines. I am all for vaccine passports. Even more so about ensuring those most at risk are properly cared for and the risk of their hospitalization mitigated. But. BIG OL BUT When the pendulum swings so far from one direction to another that protection kinda resembles coercion and then dives towards authoritarianism I am out. The mention of mandatory vaccines here has me cringing. I can not and will not accept the government dictating what people can or can not do with their bodies and then fining them or punishing them because they made a choice. We had this discussion already. Women rightfully won the right to govern their own bodies and this should apply to everyone. I believe a form of systems can be brought in to ensure those refusing to vaccinate can go about their day to day without much issue is fine. But punitive measures I can not stomach. The right to protest is something the French do damned well and the ongoing restrictions are definitely wearing on people. But I do not think it will take much to start pushing people over the edge across the G8/G20 if they go to far
  2. I just wanna say, glad you're still around
  3. i can't bring myself to drink scotch anymore, so I had to insert something because it looked damned tasty regardless. Actually, that's a good question. Has anyone over done it with a low shelf/low grade anything that soured them off of the brand or genre ??
  4. I only have 2 irish whiskeys in my inventory and I'm gonna be saving them for warmer climates I think But that does look like it drinks nicely
  5. There's a clear reason why he's the topic if so many proposals. Low cap room, expiring contract soon. Will command a massive raise with serious term. Highest possible asset piece to a bubble team or contender
  6. If I'm wheeling and dealing it looks like this To NYR: JT Miller 5th round pick To VAN: 2022 1st 2023 2nd, Schneider To ARI: 2022 1st (NYR) DiPietro 2022 2nd (van) 2023 2nd (NYR) To VAN: J Chychrun Arizona wants futures. Lots of em. Unless we're trading fir futures to give them we're not in the conversation. So any movement to get Chychrun involves us finding those futures first.
  7. Because...that's literally the place where this conversation should take place. This is about the Kane issue. Not the "my family did, but I haven't so anecdotally I" 6 degrees of separation from a medical argument thread Kane got turfed. Covid thread is in off topic. Take it there.
  8. Makes statement Refuses to back it up Says "go research it" Will get schooled when proven to be wrong. Will respond with: You're a commie liberal and don't know what you're talking about, or outright ignore it.
  9. I'm excited by the four roses. Will go buy some when my idiot supply runs low. That legent really does sip well, if you pick some up and like your buffalo trace you'll really enjoy it. So, the manager at our local JAKs location is a huge rum fan and explained some ins and outs to me today. Real rum like pure rum is derived from cane sugar/demerara. The demerara giving a harder darker rum. Apparently the bumbu isn't a true rum but a liqueur and is derived from banana sugars. I had zero idea what he was about but he remembered I'd bought some and asked how I liked it compared to the Flor de cana and diplomatico I had. I had no idea whiskey/rum was such a hot thing for people. Kinda fascinating
  10. Federal health minister suggesting that provinces will make vaccines mandatory or people will face fines or possible imprisonment like is occurring in places in Europe right now. He says it is a conversation that the provinces may want to be having with the feds and amongst themselves. He says this on the heels of Quebecs new stricter measures. I'll only say this one time. I am 100% pro vaccine. I am dead set against the selfish whining pity me anti maskers and anti vaxxers who think a mask and not being able to watch spiderman in a theatre are a loss of rights. BUT The moment you start forcing people to do something against their will, stripping the rights to bodily autonomy away we have a serious gd problem and I will stand up against it. I refuse to accept this and will not allow the smug conspiracy peddling idiots their moment of see, see I told ya so it's the nwo lizard people take over https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/duclos-mandatory-vaccination-policies-on-way-1.6307398 ON a fun note though, after this suggestion today anti abortion groups are up in arms and screaming about the suggestion that their body autonomy might be at risk. So there's that fun bit of irony.
  11. Penticton BC 136.7-156.7 in one afternoon. Kelowna is the same. It's insane
  12. I mentioned this in the halak trade rumour thread To NYR: Miller To VAN: 2022 2nd, 2021 1st, Alexis Lafrenier Miller is EXACTLY what the Rags need right now. They have $5 ish million in cap space. AF has looked like a poor mans Yakupov but could still bust out (QMJHL risk is evident) and we need that cost protected LW depth and won't be able to pay Miller the no doubt upcoming $7.75+ million he'll be asking with term. Miller makes the Rags contenders NOW while AF is looking more and more like a bench sitter than a 1st OA player. Byfield, Raymond, Stutzle and Drysdale are blowing by him in terms of production and the risk would be on us to take that potential bust of a 1st OA off of their hands and some later later early round picks.
  13. 20 cent overnight jump at the pumps. Roads closed everywhere due to snow and avalanche risk. More supply issues You know it's gonna jump hard
  14. Seems like a good time of day for boozy hot chocolate and not shovelling my sidewalk
  15. Cry more. Grow up. Start discussing things like an adult and stop running away from the ridiculous lies you keep spewing. Seems easy enough right?
  16. Then we're back to Schneider a 1st and 2nd. They have far mroe options in the pipe for forward than they do defensemen And again, Miller checks every single box they need
  17. I only suggested this because Lafrenier is at his lowest value. For a 1st OA he is looking like a poor mans yakupov right now. QMJHL bias or whatever. Miller is EXACTLY what the rags need right now and would make them almost instant contenders. YOu'd be choosing between two-5 years of contention with Miller or risking the loss of a number of key pieces when that meagre $5 million in cap space is gone with K'Andre Millers first big salary bump and the first contract to a viable goalie/back up
  18. Sounds good to me. I don't support that either because that's an awful way to spend the last few months/years of your life. So I suggest or pose only those most at risk of potential death/hospitalization in the ICU be mandated to either lockdown or self isolate until the numbers come down. No issues there or?
  19. There's any number of people with great and opposing views to mandates, lockdowns, worries about efficacy of vaccines. @gizmo2337 is one of the best and more recent so it's easy to single them out. especially when the last few dozen pages are full of...well. You
  20. We should let them out. They're not as at risk as they were and I disagree with forced isolation. Only the most at risk should be asked to self isolate or be mandated to. Or am I wrong in this summation?
  21. lol You're not a victim. You're a liar and an attention seeker that throws out bs statements and hides from the truth when people call you out on it. THAT is what we dislike. We LOVE opposing views. I find @gizmo2337 to be educated articulated and credible in his statements. But you....yikes
  22. I'd add how they convinced a person making $50k or under that them being taxed for making a million a month is a bad thing. Elon Musk makes #30+ billion in one day and the masses of $30k a year labourers think he's justified to it because they don't understand he pays. But pays a LOT less than them.
