Guelph Army.ca Night
« on: March 29, 2006, 23:23:03 »
No, I'm not trying to extend army.ca into a REAL social life for me.

But seriously, since I am now of legal age in this fine province, I will suggest (as was brought up in a previous thread) an army.ca meet up in my fine town, for all the army.ca types in the southern Ontario area.

We got ourselves a fine sports bar here on campus, and for those so inclined, the famous 'Stampede Ranch' bar and club on the other end of town where you can be guarenteed a fine time.

Offer is open, I'm in town for a few more weeks until I head off again for the summer. I can even try to find us some sort of 'activist activity' on campus to observe for the more opinionated of us.

Cheers

And since I am severly mentally deficient and forgot...I live in Guelph, ON.

You mean you live in Guelph because you are severely mentally deficient :D

Seriously, it's a great idea. We do the same thing on another board I frequent and it is a lot of fun to match name to face.

The "fine province" of Ontario? Please, and Iraq is a top tourist spot, too? And France isn't populated by cheese-eating surrender monkeys? (Just kidding about that last one. I love the French, especially their wine.)

Anyhow, seeing I'm at Alcoholics College--er, RMC--I'm always up for a brew or eight in K-hole.

Bruce,

Will you guys still be going at 2330 hrs or so?  We are heading down to Guelph this weekend.  What are the chances of that?  Anyway, by the time we leave Ottawa at 1600 hrs, put the kiddies to bed, it will probably be 2330 hrs before I can commence "link-up" operations.

Hey Piper, hopefuly the claw marks aren't too bad, although I gotta hand it to Bruce... you're lucky his plan was foiled.  ;D

It was great to meet everyone though, good times!

All,

Much better night than I had ever expected!  The Army.Ca crowd wasn't in doubt, however the digs were.  Man was I surprised.  I had a little explaining to do when I rolled in at 0200 hrs....

Well done to Piper (aka "the Kid") for suggesting the night, and Bruce for providing the coordinating instructions.  As for Steel Badger and GK404, your darting and sideways glances told me everything I needed to know.

Woo-hoo!  DIVE ARMY! Chimo!

Sapper6

p.s. ...it's just a matter of time before the digital pics start to surface... I knew the camera was a bad idea?!
