ChrisBOnTheWeb Has A Reddit and Linktr.ee!

              That's right, ChrisBOnTheWeb is on Reddit now! Myself and Savannah have worked hard to getting it ready over the weekend and we have a ChrisBOnTheWeb Community by clicking that word that is hyperlinked or https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisBOnTheWeb/ We are excited to have this community and effected as of this post going up the link to the right hand side that's been there a few days will be activated and I am sure there will be an announcement at 12 pm or 1 pm EST promoting the link but this is the first promotion of the link and the start of promoting the reddit. This is definitely a new beginning for ChrisBOnTheWeb and there is still more surprises both in this post and later onthat I am going to be releasing to you guys. Got a bunch of stuff to release to you guys on some additional things that is going to be coming out.

             Also I have created a Linktr.ee with all the basic links that you guys need and that is going to be released this afternoon at 1 pm EST and will have all the links that you guys need, from the website itself, main podcast feeds to the social media, the reddit as I mentioned it will be all there and probably the pinned Tweet and post on social media for a very, very long time as I do not plan on unpinning it anytime soon so you guys can go to that if case you need to know where links are via social media prior to the blogs and podcasts post that go up on a regular basis. I will leave it at that. Enjoy the rest of your Tuesday and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Old 1937 Steam Freighter Now A Barge

                 The title does not lie, there is or was by the time this post comes out and I will see if it's going to still be there or leaving for the next town over but I did check and not sure when its suppose to be leaving technically. Either way but this barge called St. Mary's Conquest and you can put it into your own  and see but I will educate you on the boat. It was a Steam Ship which is how it original ran but the stacks were removed and I believe the steam powered engines never ran again as it didn't say they removed em just the stacks so they still have it but it is just not used anymore. It was built in 1937 which is few year prior to World War 2 broke out when it was built so that makes the boat 84 years old. 

                  Now it is powered by a tug boat that pushes it from the back. The  former steamer is now considered a barge but it is awesome that it is still in operation 84 years and the fact I got to see a really old ship from back then in person come in and yes that picture you see above is a picture of it coming in and I took this with my Fuji Camera from a distance and I apologize for the not so great quality but it was quite cloudy and trying to get the ISO on my camera as best as I can with a storm on it's way which we dodged at the end as it started to rumble as we got in the door. As you can see in the last picture there was another boat that came in the Jamnos from the Bahamas that came in earlier in the day. Was a very production afternoon and glad to get done there to see a former steamer, now a barge.

Facebook Group Issues...

                   There has been so many issues with my Facebook Group I wanna discuss on today's post. I am for one not happy with the state of the group and makes me wonder if I should of just stuck to the fan page months ago and not make the move, however I am sticking to it regardless. Anyways here is what I have to say:

Auto-Mod Mayhem: As you know there is a Auto Mod to help with keeping the group clean and it hasn't worked in my favor as it's declined a members post and it has also done that to as I was NOT an Admin for 2 days as I removed myself because of what I said above and it declined a post of mine from July 31st, 2021 which is odd. We will be making some changes to the Auto Mod to ensure this does not happen again that posts remain up. If it continues I will be disabling it in the group and just do away with it all together. Both of us Admins will have to actually remove posts manually which isn't a problem as both of us are online quite a lot.

                 That is my post for today, myself and Savannah apologize for the issues with the Auto Mod booting posts. We are investigating things why it's declining posts on you guys as it's happened twice. We are also keeping an eye out on the admin panel for about a week to see if anything has been rejected again so pretty much we are monitoring the situation and like I said if we have to we will remove the auto mod all together we will. But anyways have a great weekend and I will talk to you all Monday!

Collaboration Podcast Update [08-05-2021]

               I have an update on the Collaboration Podcast that Larry and I do, yes Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast. I have completed Mystic Force this morning and was up all night finishing up on this season. So I have the next set of updates what I have planned that may sound different from my Instagram Stories but here are the updates:

Operation Overdrive:  I am starting up Operation Overdrive from the time I get up today and I am aiming to finish up by end of the weekend and this is one season I am personally excited for actually. My goal is 3 days to get it done. 

Jungle Fury: So this is the final season before I start typing up the notes for the 3 season and will be a bit of a break from watching which I will get to. Anyways I am aiming for mid week to end of the week to work on this season and get it completed. 

               Now I mentioned a break with the project and yes, after I am finished with Jungle Fury and typing up the notes, I plan to go on a break till at least October to Mid October of this year from anything related to the Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast and I need this break before getting geared up for RPM and I may throw in there Samurai and Super Samurai in there towards the end of the year so I am ready to go with the Collab which it is right now unknown if him and I were back in studio together and that is unclear at this moment. But back to the notes, I should have em done by mid September and sent out to Larry by then so he has the next 3 set of notes plus Dino Thunder and the 3 year anniversary podcasts he doesn't have at this point. Anyways that is the updates and I will continue to keep you guys up to date on things as things progress over the next few months as we enter the fall soon. I will talk to you all tomorrow with an update with the Minecraft World what my niece and nephew have done to the property.

Preparing For The Studio Re-Opening...

              With cases of this pandemic low here in Ontario in the 100's and 200's, it has really made me think about re-opening the studio again down the road and the goal to having the studio open to Larry especially with Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast, I'd love to see Larry back in the studio finally and that time is coming, I feel it. Now there we will be some things, we may not/will be needing by January/February 2022: 

- Needing masks but if we do we will wear it. I do not wanna jump too far ahead of myself but if it is required and he's able to be here again then we will for sure. 

- Sanitizing- Will be requiring to sanitize going into the studio and there is no ands if's and bouts either.

- Guests, Larry for example will have to bring their own earbuds or headphones to plug into the mixer, I am not providing headphones at this time and wanna make sure to not spread any germs whatsoever.

- The area will be sanitized at the end of the day to ensure cleanliness  in the studio. 

              This is the plan for re-opening the studio again once we are allowed to be closer to each other and how I am approaching re-opening up things and how I will keep things sanitary in the studio when things do open up. If you guys have any other ideas what I can add to this list please do comment below, anything helps and I will add em to the post as well. Either way I am excited to be welcoming back Larry and the other Alum and Staff of CBOTW soon enough and it will probably be happening soon enough I'm sure as I am feeling it but for right now we continue to record the shows through Skype/Discord at this time.

Original Post Got Cancelled So I'm Not Sure What To Say....

            The Original post I had at one point was about me streaming on Twitch but since now I am now not streaming video games at this moment and probably more then likely will not be streaming anymore especially with the way my net and computer is, it just cannot handle it apparently. I do need a new PC eventually. It's not cheap to pay for one getting it built by Canada Computers like 4200 bucks and that's quite a good amount of money and I need to save up money. Any money that I save on the side here is going towards a brand new computer and Gaming Computer. I am not really sure if I wanna continue on with this website to be honest... I am just sick of all of this and over CBOTW. I hate to say it, because you guys know I love what I do on a daily basis. This has nothing to do with Savannah who recently came back to help as Site Admin and of course Larry who is my dedicated Senior Producer and Co-Host. 

              The last year and a half almost has been nothing but drama and I am just sick of it and I really, really want to actually make it to the 10 year anniversary and show to the haters out there, haha I made it 10 years without closing up shop. It was around this time period 2 years almost when the other team went down and I really do not wanna end up in the same fate as The Video Projects Team did November 13th, 2014 the day before CBOTW became a thing almost 7 years ago. Just sick of all the drama, I want and calling for some Community Unity where there is no more fighting. Remember we do have that Terms of Use which can be found at the bottom of ChrisBOnTheWeb.com and this all has to stop, no more drama, I am getting to a point of not being able to handle this all over again. I have temporarily stepped down from the Admin role on my Facebook group and still am on there either way.

Halton County Radial Museum Opening Weekend!

     It has been nearly 2 years since I have been able to go to the Halton Radial Museum and the picture on the left side is a picture almost 2 years ago, this was October 13th, 2019 when we were at Halton County Radial Museum and yes I had a goatee then which right now it's just my stache at this moment of time since it is summer after all. When I got the word about Streetcar Museum was doing a Soft Opening, I was so thrilled and wanted to go in the back of my mind. My dad mentioned we can go if you want. I was hesitant with this pandemic still ongoing and cases gone up a bit recently but I realized we're masked and social distancing so really I had nothing to worry about. The way I think of it  it is an outing and got my out of the house for a several hours and was nice to be in the car and out for a ride.

            Now to this present day, there was rain on the way there and we got there to Halton County Radial Museum the rain subsided. We checked in and showed our tickets and did our COVID-19 questionnaire to ensure we're good to be there.  We then proceeded into the barn and looked around. A lot of the displays have been moved about in the main barn as they have added the CLRV's (Canadian Light Rail Vehicles) and ALRV (Articulated Light Rail Vehicle) and some are going to the States but due to our borders being closed they are being stored in at the museum and I took a picture of them. I grew up with the CLRV's and ALRV's most of my life and I know I probably have been on the PCC. It is so amazing to see so many changes to the museum over the course of the pandemic and they sure have been busy working on changes to it. Also 4040 which is the CLRV Streetcar that my toque went for a ride and my dad and I had to go chase all over the city of Toronto to get it back. Another story for another day. Either way I give a big applaud to Halton County Radial Museum and the hard work they have done during the time they closed and was very honored to return once again. I really missed going there and it was an honor to return and do another amazing post. Few more things is the progress they have made with their restoration projects and how far they have gone. Also by the barn there is a streetcar that's sadly rusted away but the vine growing on the streetcar it looks really cool actually you can see a bit of the windshield a tad. Anyways that's my post for today, hope you enjoyed it and will talk to you all tomorrow.
