You know what really sucks at Ashton? Their sandwiches.

Or alternatively, the cashier but that's a good thing.

Poutine snobs amuse me.

Its fries with gravy and cheese people!
it's all in the cheese.  And the gravy.  And the fries, come to think of it :P

If you don't have proper potatoes, it sucks.
If you don't have fresh cheddar cheese, it sucks.  Try it with Velveeta or Cheez Whiz and we'll talk about it :yuk:
If you don't have a good gravy, all the flavour is lost.

Canadians. pfft.  :P
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

I wish I had some cheese people.  :mmm:
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

So here I am on rather short notice in Toronto. Apparently the tech lead for the Bank of Montreal engagement could not get his visa, so they had me come up and cover for this workshop.
Not enough ducats?
Probably a criminal.  Many Americans are prone to criminality.

Actually he is Indian. As in from India, not Native American.

Is anyone actually in Toronto? I would love to get together for a drink downtown tomorrow night. I think I am having dinner with the team around 5pm or so, but could meet afterwards...

Malthus, HVC, Sask & Buddha. Josephus lives close enough.

I suggest sending PMs.

There is no such thing as fun in Toronto.  It's the city that joy forgot.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

BB stipulated that it was fries with cheese. That wouldn't qualify.

An eerie silence ensued..........getting a meet arranged in Toronto is starting to resemble the situation in Copenhagen  :hmm:

Still, at least you can eat some bad poutine  :huh:
