Like @canadiancow I am free on weekdays as well for the near future (except for my new consulting gig, which I can do where ever), so I am in!

And I will be bringing a bottle of Cape Breton single-malt!

My biggest decision is whether I fly in on Sunday to see the Flames/Vegas game, or stick around until Tuesday to see the Flames/Devils game??

I am looking at flights now....

Not sure that is a good idea if the outcome would be anything like the last time I flew with you!!

I'm looking at 139, as it would give me some time to have a couple of meetings downtown before the Do.

I did book the red eye (158) flying back to YYZ that evening (00:30 on the 12th).

My wife reminded me of my daughters dance comp on the 10th and I am now needed in YYZ on the 12th, so no Flames game this time.

Seems like I'm always out of town for the YYC dos these days, but would love to join if I was in town. In AKL for this one. Have fun!

I have to be on YEG on the 8th. There's a chance I can stay in AB and attend this do. Will keep you posted.

Is this a full-on Do or more of a Mini-Do?

Looks more like a mini-Do, but that just means more single-malt for you and I.

​​​​​​​Oh, and we will not let cow mix the single-malt with coke zero!!

I'm in. May I suggest Trolley 5 on 17 Ave or the Keg in the Westin Downtown?

As much as I love that Trolley 5 is 2 blocks from my house and the Keg is 2 blocks from my office, I would say both are vastly inferior to the earlier suggestions

Hey, I will be in the PHL area that night. Depending on where you are staying, we may be within driving distance of each other. Will PM you with details later today.

After enough lurking and not participating, seems to me about time I joined a Mini-Do and meet you FFs in person - so put me down for a YES. I didn't participate in the last Mini-Do as it was on a Saturday so I do prefer the new weeknight format. I just dropped from SE100K to E50K for 2019 so please accept my humble presence nonetheless.

As a regular to both and occasional visitor of National on 10th I disagree, especially service-wise...but I'm good with wherever the consensus lands.

Any monster who does this should be banned from drinking anything but Johnnie Black on AC flights for the rest of his life.
