I was wondering....

I will rent the movie tomorrow, but after reading the bio at Timhorton.com, and thinking about the movie, I was wondering:

Was Tim Horton the basis for the character Jean La Rose in "Strange Brew"?

A more intelligent post tomorrow, after seeing the movie.

It's been a while since I've seen Strange Brew too...but considering the Canajun pedigree of that film I'd say probably.

Of course, we all know about Stan Mikita's Donuts in Wayne's World...

For sure let us know if you killed your self laughing at it. It is a oldy but hillarious.

Actually, I haven't been able to find the movie to rent.

I did do a websearch and found the entire "Great White North" album online and downloaded it and now have it in my CD player in my car.

It is pretty damn funny.

I'll keep this page updated.

Good day, eh?

My pleasure, Matt and all readers of this board,

A week ago, after receiving a needlessly unprofessional written tirade from a moderator from another board (after I had tried to notify him of something that had occurred on his board), and seeing the decline of common courtesy and politeness on this website, I had decided to resign my membership.

This post has reminded me that there are members who are here because they love scanning and sharing knowledge about the hobby we all have in common. And that there are people without attitudes and superiority complexes who still know how to laugh and have fun.

I think I'll hang around this board for a while, eh?

I would assume that I should be able to hear these restruants with singal stalked on ? but oddly enough at the majority of local restruants I'm not able to hear squat ? Mind you I did hear a local A&W but nothing elese...any idea why ?

 

[jellotor]

Could be any number of reasons. Could be that you're out of range...or that their intercom works on a frequency band out of range of your scanner.

That's what I tried first, Close Call and got no hits. I was no more than 30 feet from the order window, watching people as they ordered. I could even hear with the car window up, since most people usually speak up when the pull up, but the employee sounded more like Charlie Brown's school teacher...wha wha, wha, wha wha wha !!!

I think these units used are very low power and pretty much if you aren't standing right beside the person you are not going to get a CC hit. Fortunately though all of them all located either in the 30-36 Mhz range or the 900 Mhz range.. with some being in the 450-470 Mhz range. a lot of them too especially the ones in the 30 and 900 Mhz bands the drive thru side has a distinct open carrier when not in use.

In case anyone cares. Strange Brew is on for atleast the next hour on ShowCase West ch. 617 on ExpressVue

 

[ocscan]

In Belleville my 246T Close Called on 469.2125mhz [131.6] This was both customer and employee. Employee only on 464.2125mhz [141.3].

 

[slicerwizard]

Lots of Timmy's using 902-928 band with very low power. You won't CC them when a cell site is in the same area. Bandwidth is fairly high as well.

BTW, best drive through comms I heard: East Indian woman with two kids in the back orders "Two Big Macs, hold the meat" - OMG, what's the point?

 

[jellotor]

There's meat in Big Macs? Since when, Andy?

 

[slicerwizard]

C'mon, be fair. They're full of mystery meat. Mind you, it's been years since I've had one - I go for the nuggets or Wendys.
