Important Event Notes - FAQ
  • Wait, isn't it winter in December in YYC?
    Technically it's still fall until December 21st, so I can still call this a fall Do. But yes, it's likely to be winter conditions. It's YYC in December, after all

  • Don't you know it's Christmas party season, you jerk? No way I can get away / I won't be able to get a babysitter / it's possible that Uber will have surge pricing later in the evening.
    My Christmas party is the night before and I have no kids, so it works just fine for me

  • Will I be able to enjoy a delectable menu with a flair for International cuisine, fine wines, and unequalled service?
    No. There will be no hockey puck beef. The pastas won't all have spinach. There will be great booze. And the service will be good. And no Random capital Letters (outside of this Sentence).

Important Event Notes (real ones this time!)
  • The burger and Scotch theme is purely optional. Those are the specialties of the restaurant, but you're free to have a salad and a diet Coke, fish and white wine or whatever floats your boat.
  • There will likely be a deal on some Scotch tasting flights - details TBD.
  • The Do host has not achieved Dorian's level of wealth and generosity. No T-shirts or other swag will be provided. Unless people want some AC pens, I have a bunch of those lying around. Or unless yyznomad shows up with some of his headphones and other goodies.

Of course, day trip to BOS was also cancelled on Sunday.....

Grrrrrrrr
Well at least you got to watch the karaoke.

Thanks to everyone for attending! Always nice to catch up with some old friends and meet some new ones.

Thanks to those who travelled, especially those who gave up tropical climes like PHX, SFO or YVR...

I wish you guys had wanted some of those amenity kits and pens, but I'll have to figure out something else to do with them, I guess.

@Bohemian1, thanks for inspiring me to open that bottle of Balvenie Portwood that has been kicking around my house for a while. Worth it.
