If there's some sort of gathering, let me know where and when.

If needed, I can give you your "welcome stab."

Thanks for all of the ideas gang.

Craig goes to the head off the line though - a drink on the house beats everything.

I am sure that Andy is going to take good care of me ... which gives me the idea for another post.

Hmmm.

Hey, I work at the Dog in the afternoons Fri & Sat.
If you see me, introduce yourself, and have a drink on me. Both of ya.

Craig, bartender with a baseball hat.

Oh, and tell Grabia to take you to the Purple Onion. I promise, it is the best bar in town . . .

See, now this confuses me. When I was in Edmonton in the late '90's, we used to go to the Purple Onion for 75 cent highball night on Monday or whatever the hell it was (kids: you can get 4's on the 9 point scale and still go to law school!). We mentioned this to my friend's parents, who lived there in the 1970's and they kind of looked at us funny. Did it not make the leap to being a straight bar at some point?

Or are you referring to something else.

I have a tour all planned out, don't you worry. I'm a little worried about getting tasered, though, because of that mustache Pat has going on. I'd assume he was guilty of something if I saw him walking down the street with that thing on his face.

BD, say hi to me at the game, I'll be in the standing room. Donairs at Marcos after!

That's if I'm still standing of course.

garnet nailed it. I was going to mention the same thing.

Make sure you hit the Black Dog early, and then when it gets too crowded, exit for a donair, before heading to the Irish joint across the street.

If you get too drunk to find your way to the game, go to the Elephant and Castle to watch it -- best atmosphere outside of the arena.

Surely you'll be going to the beloved Black Dog Freehouse on Whyte, no? Niinimaa used to hang out there, don't forget.

Do NOT try to sneak a knife onto the plane.
With that 'stache its about 80/20 you're gonna get strip-searched.

I've read that Grabia would really like a new taxpayer funded arena for Edmonton.
Too big for carry on?

Bushmills,
I've found with Bushmills
that if I don't use a jigger when I'm pouring the drink
It lasts longer

Pat, does this mean you are a werewolf? Or a black dog whisperer?

Very funny post.
