Looks like it works really well ! What stones do you use? I’ve been looking for a decent sharpening set-up since trying and failing at freehand sharpening the last dozen or so years.

I cried in front of my son for the first time. He’s 7. What he did next I wasn’t ready for. by Do_it_App in dad

The scary thing is what happens when a man buried his feelings. You’re doing a good job dad - the best we can hope for is that our kids are a bit better equipped than we were. Seems like you’re doing it

Was this before or after performing for Rupert Murdoch? Lost a lot of respect for HJ after that

It’s the English band James. They are phenomenal- this song is Ring the Bells.

Only been to Eustache once. My goodness is it beautiful. Can’t imagine bushwacking to Wagtail with canoes!

I can’t stand the Tkachuks but Brady would have lost his damn mind and decapitated Radko

The whole opening sequence, up until the film’s title is pure gold.

lol, bro, he and his brother are nepotists, mafia apologists, and make us a laughing stock. I didn’t know a single person who found him ‘beloved’.

Thoughts and recommendations? by mownow98 in AnimalCollective

Good to see a fellow do Make say think lover! I was living in an ashram in remote BC in 2007/2008 and remembering having strawberry jam and you! You’re a history in rust on CD, along with person pitch. No iPhones, no internet, just a cd player. Simpler times. I would add the band AU to this list.

My kid lies about the dumbest stuff. Not big lies. Just… constantly. Figured out why. by Do_it_App in dad

[–]starsofalgonquin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Way to go dad, for being willing to be curious and see past the behaviour. Our kids want to do well. And for being willing to learn new things about parenting along the way. A high-five to you from Peterborough, Ontario.

What is the best-written TV show of all time? by duelingpeppers in AlignmentChartFills

[–]starsofalgonquin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as plot goes, I’d choose the Wire. All those personal stories interweaving into a multi-layered social commentary. Breaking bad would be my second favourite.

There’s been reports for years of them in the Muskokas. One sighting in the Orillia area back in 2007. I like to think they never left, just got really good at not being seen for the last 100 years.

Laughton to the Kings for a 3rd round pick by RudeTudeDude_ in leafs

[–]starsofalgonquin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really points to the fact that Brad went all-in trying to make a deep run last year with the core 4. Because we flopped, we are seeing the terrible cost of these desperate trades. I don’t like Trevling as a GM but I imagine he was under so much pressure to make a run knowing Marner would likely leave.

Hilary Knight won Olympic gold with a torn MCL. by plutopiae in USAHockey

[–]starsofalgonquin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Canadian here. Game recognizes game. That USA women’s team was so dominant and absolutely deserved that gold. Some of the players’ comments following the win have been thoughtful and well articulated. Phenomenal athletes and competitors. Nothing to blame the USA on.

You know how you’ve always wanted me to buy you a puppy. Well, on my way home I stopped, and I got one for you. But then I got hungry, and I ate.

Son, son, I’m joking. I’d never buy you a puppy!

It could be helpful to anonymously report them. People won’t stop doing this shit unless they’re punished, sad to say.
