  1. Edmonton Eskimos. Get ready for a great season Go Esks Go Posted via Mobile Device
  2. Well I had a trip planned to St. John's during the Juno awards, and I am sure it would have been a great trip, if it was not for Snow and the Ash cloud wrecking havoc on my plans. Some events can be great for business, others not so good.
  3. CFL is the best.... All aspects of it.... Is anyone going to the great game in Moncton?
  4. Enigma is always good as is Cafe Roma and other jazzy style non-lyrical music. As much as I would live to play some AC/DC or Abba I don't quite think it would work in setting a sensual tone.
  5. Discretion is key here, so no contact at all is preferred in public.
  6. I prefer mornings and afternoons, as I am more of a day person.
  7. Thanks very much for the information and link, it is apreciated.
  8. One of the things that bothers me the most, was when the Toronto police chief was on the news and said he was surprised by the violence and rage with the protesters. The things is, where past G20 summits held in other city's not an indication of what to expect? We are really lucky that worse damage was not done or that people were not seriously injured.
  9. Good Afternoon, Can anyone let me know the dates of the George Street Festival and Regatta day this year? I know it is in August, but can't remember when. Thx, Emily
  10. Happy Birthday.... Enjoy your day and have a wonderful time....
  11. I prefer to visit with gentlemen over 35, but the odd exception has been made to well spoken and polite late twenty something gentlemen. The avaerage age of gentlemen that I visit with is 45+
  12. In all honesty I do not think there really are that many indpendants or agencies that are working this wekeend. with all the drama going on everywhere is downtown, it seems like a bit more of a risk than usual to be working in downtown Toronto. Just my thoughts....
  13. Well 1 insane day of G20 is over and another one is starting. I for one will be SO happy when this madness is done. It started weeks ago and I knew things were getting crazy when I arrived home 2 weeks ago and myself along with 100 others were searched while waiting for our luggage at the baggage claim. Pearson airport most days is a gong show, this made it even worse. At this point I decided to stay in the city for the remainder of the month, as I for one do not wished to be searched again by RUDE and Arrogant RCMP. I live 2 blocks from where the G20 is taking place. I am outside the fenced area, but my neighborhood has more police than civilians in it right now. I have seen the police on the water pull over a water plane. Peoples coffees dumped on the street (they were drinking from them), groceries searched and packages opened (don't see how a box of sealed chicken could be an issue). Can one explain why in addition to boats and water crafts that we need seadoo's with police? Not seeing the purpose of this. Toronto looked like a war torn country yesterday. In my 10 years of living here I have never seen anything like the aftermath of yesterday here. They bolted down all the manhole covers, yet protesters were seen climbing out of them last night. We have been advised not to order take out or have company over. Not to leave the property without id and basically to stay home, but then encouraged (by the mayor) to go to city events away from the G20 summit area. Is the guy on CRACK? I feel for the business owners, who's buildings that got vandalized and trashed yesterday (they seemed to have it out for Starbucks) as it is doubtful that insurance will cover it and the federal government will not compensate them. Why is it OUR problem for something the government created? No one asked for the summit to be held here. They knew this summit would bring protesters, yet they proceeded to hold it in downtown Toronto. WHY?WHY?WHY? People have the right to protest and stand up for what they believe in, yet with protests comes violent groups. There is ALWAYS a bad apple in the group in any situation. All they keep saying on the news is that the hotels are sold out and the city is making money, yet what about all the business that have lost money since Wednesday? I am safe and surviving but not a happy camper (thank-you to all of you who have contacted me), but I live facing the lake so unless I turn on the TV I do not have to look at the insanity going on a couple blocks away.

  14. My whole condo in downtown Toronto shook and I am 18 floors up. Not something I wish to relive any time in this life time.
  15. Thank you very much for the kind words. New pictures will be taken in early July....
  16. I have raved about the cities in New Brunswick and how wonderful it is to visit. You are in for a real treat when Emma comes to visit.
  17. AWWWW Thanks for the kind words....
  18. Aww, thank's. Any chance the Firemen from the charity firefighters calendar could give me the honorary membership? If there are any Calendar men on the board, do speak up as I would like a Calendar.
  19. I can fly to Vancouver for half the price of a ticket to St. John's. Considering the flights are always sold out its a bit unexplainable at times. Its like you get punished for wanting to go there.
  20. Some of the ad text is mine, but that is not my ad. I have emailed the ad and am awaiting for a reply....
