It’s up to the businesses that don’t want to close again to make sure they don’t let their customers bully them into doing business in a way that isn’t sustainable. Example - restaurants who let two parties of 6 (the max size in BC) sit next to each other essentially making a party of 12. You have to be able to say no. I’m sure it’s the same for wineries, fishing guides, clothing stores etc.

We're a tourist town, without them there is no business. Beaches are packed. A lot of people were hurting bad during the lockdown. It's a catch 22 regretfully.

But the leafs HAVE won the cup, right?

Chrst...the ducks won the cup in their 14th season.

Flyers won it in their 7th.

Winning teams filled with winners just figure it out.

Losing teams filled with losers...don’t.

You can make fun of leaf fans all you want...
You can throw a parade down robson when you beat the horrible wild...but you know you’re going to add another year to your futility streak in short order.

The fancy word to describe it is that of a tautology...

That is to say...losers lose.

Losers lose.

It’s so simple.

I wanted a Dman. Juolevi just wasn't my guy. We've been over this before but you really need a legit 1D and 1C for the most part to win. D takes longer to develop. When Benning said they'd identified one future #1D I felt for sure it was Chychrun. That's what hurt on draft day. I'm sure you felt very similar with Sergachev.

Chychrun sucks as well. Serg is ok. It helps that all of the D have been suspect in our range. I have zero expectations for juolevi. Swing and a miss

I haven't completely written him off, he just needs to play lots of games and stay healthy. Tall order I know.

Hopefully Jake gets his sh it together, this team would look good having JT, Zack and Jake on the top 3 lines creating the havoc/intensity needed to get to contender status.
Hopefully JT runs off on him.

Anywhere around 10 C is great. Much colder and the wine won’t age. You want to avoid extreme temperature swings.

Consistency is most important, and cool is better than warm. 10 to 12 C is about ideal. As I just mentioned, my sub basement (was below ground about 4’ or so, was great when I was in Calgary.

Thx I might set up something small in the downstairs room we'll see.

Idiot. Everyone laughs at them but every village wants one.

Canucks have gone further into the playoffs than the Leafs ever have who never once made it out of the 3rd round in their entire history.

When the IQ is as low as bruceflyers it can be actually quite fun...but can get out of hand quickly lol

You never see bruceflyers post intelligently in the Philly blog so that pretty much expalins it. Just trollin' around...

I have seen that video circulate for months . It is one of the all time best. I guess that is why it keeps coming back. Even though I seen it many many times I still laugh everytime.

Can we call him the Sweetner?

For a better return I’d consider adding in Demko too.
