Try it up here. Once they transfer over to the kimik and kamotik, dogs and sled, there's no tracking at all. Huskies make lousy data entry clerks. Willing enough if you bribe them with bacon and cheese but the attention span of a gnat.

I had a business partner like that.

Tell him if he doesn't finish the MB he has to earn the Mile Swim patch at Summer Camp.

Or threaten to buy him a hociR.

I didn't learn to swim until I was about 30. And I still cannot swim very well.

I lost myself trying to figure out this thread ....

Is this where we are supposed to tell why we don't buy the K3 ?

The deck of the Portage Store in Algonquin Park... there's a bike rental service at the Lake of Two Rivers Store, I'm guessing these are the bikes they rent over there in the summer. It must be a tough business model when for 8 months of the year your inventory is chained up on a deck surrounded by snow.

I was quite tempted to go the way of the hociR when I saw that deal on one for $966.

What's a K3? Is it anything like K2?

The only way to eat broccoli is with, of course, a cheese sauce.

YES!

And if not over-cooked, can be pretty tasty.
I wonder if Broccoli could be the new garlic against hociR eripmaV.

Cheese sauce, and sprinkled with bacon bits.

Just so happens...my dinner tonight.

Under al that cheese and bacon it is still . . . . . . broccoli.

I'll eat Brussels Sprouts before I'll eat . . . . . . broccoli. I'll eat cauliflower before I'll eat . . . . . . broccoli. I'll eat OKRA before I'll eat . . . . . . broccoli. No. More. Broccoli.

Sort of like, under all that Gaffer Tape it is stil . . . . . . . hociR.

I love Brussels sprouts; especially with bleu cheese dressing.

I can actually eat them once in a while. The Bleu Cheese sounds like an interesting flavor diversion.

My brother used to put one on the end of his fork, cross his arms at his waist, lean forward while dangling the fork over the floor and wait until the dog relieved his fork of the offending baby cabbage. If our mother ever caught on she never let on.
