Comment on Trailer Park Boys: What really happened to Corey and Trevor… by Tony

Honestly I loved the 7th season and I thought it really did a 180 the show started to really blow after about season 4 and I think getting rid of some dead weight was what the show needed, I love “Philidelphia Collins” and the “Swayze Express” shit.. And the line of Bubbles getting bread stuck all over his body, “That bread feels wonderful” Classic. I think Corey and Trevor were retarded to jump ship cuz I have a feeling the syndication Swayze Train is coming and I think that Corey and Trevor are as Ricky puts it “Fucked in the head” to jump ship at this stage in the game.

Not since Andy Rector leaving Conan have I seen a worse career move.

Sampan Restaurant
Lancaster Plaza, Saint John, NB E2M 4X5
Telephone : 506-672-9050

I was here on sunday July 20, 2008
I ordered the sweet and sour pork, with the rice.

The dish had no pork, just fat!
I ate 3 peaces and threw it out.
I don’t know how they are in green status at all.. That food is not fit for consumption..

I called them to let them know, they said they would mention it to the owners, when they got back from vacation… Good job there. lol

I will not eat there again!!
There was no meet.. What ratio do you use for that. o% passes.

Thanks,

Mike

Comment on Telus and Bell will charge for incoming text messages by Charles E. Frees-Melvin

You forgot to mention Bell on the same day is raising all Call Display and Message Centre Express fees to $7. Even if you have a “non fun” bundle. Add to that the $1 environmental “Paper Bill Fee.” And international Text Messenging is going to 25 cents. Not withstanding I was one of those people in line to get a new iPhone.

Comment on The Ward 2 Byelection by mark huestis

I always find it amusing when someone endorses a candidate because they have “experience”such as in your endorsment of Carl White.Mr.White was a rookie candidate at one time and was elected deputy mayor! So much for the electorate wanting experience.A similar case is Bruce Court being elected in ward 4.People are still bitter over the LNG tax deak and the route through Rockwood Park both of which Mr.White supported and Ms. Higgins did not. This in my opinion accounted for Mr. White’s drop in support this time.An exception to this premise is the great showing by Stephen Chase.One has to be elected the first time to gain experience. If elected Ms. Higgins will do fine.Shirley McAlary was very green when first elected deputy mayor in 1992 but went on to serve that term and three more terms as mayor,a feat only surpassed by Elsie Wayne. As far as Ms Higgins not supporting the Irving project right away,the majority of council don’t either,including some whom Shawn supports.In about 2 hours we will know the winner in Ward 2 May the best person win!

Comment on Windows Update - Error Code 80073712 by pmiadmin

Good discussion- much appreciated. Our problem started with 8000ffff error stopping all updates. This was corrected with registry HKLM/Components editing noted in opening post. This revealed an underlying 80073712 error fixed with WUA reinstall as also noted in opening. Here are some additional hints that helped:
1. Turn off auto update including checking.
2. Failed update or checking can trigger problem HKML/Component values which have to removed each time.
3. We worked in safe mode with network support.
4. File permissions were changed by opening Windows Explore run as administrator. Browse to file then properties>security>advanced. Change ownership, change permissions, check/change inherited properties. Safe mode helps avoid open file access denied problems.
5. Prior to each reboot we started cmd run as administrator and ran “netsh winsock reset” (others say it helps ???)

I last communicated this site on April 25. After six months of trying and getting angry with MS I have reinstalled Vista. Lots of wok but problem solved. Thanks everyone, and a special thanks to Bill Gates for another faulty system.

I truly miss TPB and I’m sympathetic to how Corey and Trevor were treated but I’m really tired about how viewers say seasons 1-3 are the best and seasons 4 and 5 were blah blah blah blah. BULLSHIT!! TPB was, in my opinion, the best program I’ve had the pleasure to watch. We have nothing, NOTHING, like this in the States except shit like the Bill Engvall show which is total absolute family comedy(?) bullshit. This might piss of some of my Canadian friends but I’m for insituting the death sentence on any asshole who produces another fucking “family comedy”. Canadian viewers who blogged that the show lost its direction in seasons 4 and 5 amaze me. THE SHOW WAS ABOUT LOSERS LIVING IN A FUCKING TRAILER PARK, TRYING TO GROW DOPE AND STAY OUT OF JAIL. Having written that, and if you understand the premise and the characters, how can anyone say the show lost its direction and became increasingly unwatchable? The show was about the absurdity of living that kind of life and the shit you have to put up with!! And some of you wanted scripts similar to seasons 1-3? Thanks for being narrow minded and unimaginative assholes! On the whole the show was a jewel and we’ll probably never see its likes again. I hope I didn’t piss off anyone in the Great White North with my comments but you guys were so lucky to have something like TPB. By the way, some of you should use spellcheck before you submit your comments to a blog. Seriously. Thanks for putting up with me!
