bill, you call it when you arrive and it will be toll free...in the mean time to discuss stuff with that company the regular # is (905)624-2424 but long distance

btw, $69 is the fare from Pearson airport to downtown Hamilton, that's what i meant by $69

like char said, there are other taxi/limo services too...too bad times are still slow, especially in 'scenic' Nov, lol

They got back to me really quickly.
The Flat rate is $75.00 if you are going to Mountain, and $69.00 it is
Downtown Hamilton. Please call our toll free #:1-800-465-3434 once you get
to the Airport, the Dispatcher will assign the car#, and location to meet
your car.
Thanks, jj.

Gaby,
If they got back to you that quickly they sound like they want business, which is a good thing. Thanks.

Did you notice that #26 sold on eBay last week. I missed the end of the auction so I don't know who got it, when I looked it ws at 5600.00 I think.

Brink: I noticed that it was up for auction (again). Thanks for reminding me to check it out. It sold for $6001!

Sadly, in my recent hard drive crash I lost the latest version of my list of owners. And, sadder still, I hadn't backed that directory up since 10/02! I only got a couple of new listings in the interim, but unless I find a later backup I'm going to have to try to figure out what/who I'm missing. There's someone here on Corfid who has one - if you are reading, please write to me again! Thanks.

True about the mayo. I was in Holland this past June, and they loooove mayo on their fries.

My Dutch friend asked me if I thought that was weird. I said no. Been there, done that. Then I told him about the poutine we Canucks enjoy. And of course his response was, "Yeark!!! Now THAT is weird!"

I am from Western Canada and never been further East than Ontario. But there is a rumour that the friendliest people on the face of the earth are from Newfoundland, and in my experience in meeting people from there I think the rumour is true

Mmmmm!! And, just across the border, in Belgium, you can eat them with huge bowls of mussels. Scrummy!
What is poutine? – Sounds like I ought to avoid it. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/wink.gif

thanks Gaby, now I want a pound or two of steamed clams and a vat of drawn butter..mmm. still not into the mayo/fries/chips thing. ick.

this thread has covered a lot of ground. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif

i love sweet potato fries dipped in mayo http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif
(but they dont' seem to ever get crispy, agh)

a GL pal who was up last convention lived off Harvey's (probably the worst kind,lol) poutine, had never had it before...when i've had the real stuff up north it was fried covers in cheese curds and gravy or tomato/meat sauce...after enjoying the decadence, i later felt the need to shove a pipecleaner through my arteries http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif

hey lsh, maybe this wacky thread will get more posts than SM's incredible pic thread, lol

Poutine:
Take one bowl of french fries, the greasier the better. Add a couple of tablespoons of cheddar cheese curds. Then smother with canned Franco-American [tm] beef gravy.

Oh, my god! You people actually eat that!! Yeeuuchh!!!!!! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/wink.gif
Sounds almost as healthy as deep-fried Mars Bars.

lol, Gaby...i first tried it way up in Hearst, Ont (that's at the tip of Yonge St/Hwy#11) and it sure hits the spot on a cold day...i was watching smoke come out of smokestacks and it's weird but the smoke travels straight across the sky instead of upward, a local said 'that means it's cold' ...it was -40C, which is the temp where F and C are equal, no conversion necessary, so life's just generally less confusing up there, lol http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif)

yeah, there's enuf fat in the stuff to help one survive a good few weeks in those cold woods!

I suppose if I were to do a forty-day trek in a Canary Yellow Canoe, the extra blubber might help!
-40º - Please tell me you are joking! I’m going to have to buy a whole new wardrobe just to see GL in concert?
