Brucey Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I think I'm going to keep this avatar - because having a hot avatar gives the impression that I myself am also hot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rushchick10 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 So, any Rush fan who has been to Toronto has been to Caplansky's Deli down on College St. Geddy is actually a frequent patron of that establishment (because it's damn good food!). He ordered a special breakfast so often that they actually added it to the regular menu. I decided to have it one morning for breakfast and I have to say that man has awesome taste! I also get to say that I devoured The Geddy while I was in Toronto. Our waitress that we had waits on Geddy all the time and she said he was a super nice guy and a very generous tipper! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went up to Toronto to ring in the new year at The Orbit Room this year and ate breakfast at Caplansky's (the Geddy of course) the next morning. I dream about that place.

EagleMoon Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 We were talking about this a few pages back when a video was posted of Caplanskys. All those onions would do me in for sure, but it does look really good. I want to get up to Toronto this summer. I haven't been since the '80's. :o :( 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iowa here, I fly also. I would not want to make that drive. I've thought about a road trip there just so I could drive through some parts of Canada that I had never been to before, but it would be at least two or three full days of driving. That would cut into my time actually in T.O., so maybe another time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rushchick10 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I'm going in April for 3 weeks. Will definitely stop in caplanskys. Flying from charlotte. Can't wait! Then down on Younge St (pretty much the main road through town) there are some GREAT little places to eat. Everything from pizza and burgers to shwarma and pho and sushi. I can't wait to get back there! If my son wouldn't have a tiny heart attack, I'd probably defect from the US and move there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toronto seems like a cool city. Lots to do but the weather isn't the best. At least they do get the roads cleared off when it snows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gangsterfurious Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) http://www.rushisaband.com/images/201202/2191.f.jpg I watched this whole freaking movie because I heard Geddy had a role and it was only for like 3 seconds at the END of the movie :rage: That's the outfit that launched a few fantasies. hehehe I'll say. I'm going to have to start purging actual thinking space to make room for all my Geddy fantasies pretty soon! Long before I knew who Geddy was I was given a collection of Western short stories by my Grandmother and one of the last stories is of a girl out on the prairie that has been abandoned by her family; she returns home from school one day and finds that her mother, father, and two small brothers have left her behind with a note that says "we've moved on." They've left a couple of chickens, an onion, and a potato behind, the land they live on is not producing. The next day the girl is out in the yard when she sees a wagon coming towards her, it's a Jewish peddler named Levi that travels from town to town with a large wagon filled with medicines, fabrics, pots, and pans, etc... He sits and talks to the girl for awhile and she tells him her story and then she asks him to take her with him, at first he doesn't want to but he can't leave her behind because he knows it will always haunt him, and so he agrees. He's a very sweet man and very appropriate with her and helps her out until they eventually run into a snow storm. He refuses to stay in the wagon with her because it would be improper and gets very sick out in the cold and nearly delirious and so she brings him into the wagon and tends to him and the donkeys they have with them, until the snow storm clears and she (now sick herself) can get them to the next town for help. When they reach the next town she lies to the people she finds and tells them that her husband is very sick and then she herself blacks out. When they both awake she goes to him and tells him what she has told the people caring for them and he asks her if that would be a bad thing, if he were her husband, she says no. He asks her if she would be okay marrying a Jewish man that travels, and has things thrown at him and is sometimes made fun of, just because of who he is and what he does and she says no, she wouldn't mind. He asks her if she wants to stay in the town they are in, the townspeople have welcomed them to stay and set up a permanent store. But she says she feels the road calling to them and they leave together. Anyway, I just love that story, it was always one of my favorites and then when I saw Geddy wearing that outfit I was like "There's Levi!", too perfect. Just thought I'd share...
