@phrontist3r1on I also have three different types of absinthes I’ve been holding for years but I am still waiting for another one of your tasting nights… hint hint.

Sledgehammer cocktails - think screwdriver but swap the orange juice for Cointreau and lime juice, jack it up with some Absinthe and crank up the Peter Gabriel #CocktailCalendar2024

@phrontist3r1on That sounds powerful

@RoboRobbins @NationalDefence When did you move over?

One of the best parts of my job at @NationalDefence is the opportunity to get out with the CAF and understand how we can bring the best of digital and EDT solutions into their uniquely important and complex use cases. Plus sometimes we get to ride a LAV 😄

@DavePerryCGAI thank you for the invite to a very stimulating conversation.

@phrontist3r1on I had a football coach once that said “Offence sells tickets, defence wins games” 😀

@D_Thompson0 Yeah, forget about defense and just outscore them! Like I said, I'm all about the fans and they don't want to pay their hard earned money for a defensive struggle... Though I'm clearly not above playing keep away to close out the finals of the social side of a 7s tournament lol

Incredible work from Redpath to prevent a try there

@phrontist3r1on I mean at that point you’d probably be getting into position for a first offensive phase and not bother. It is good that you are focused on scoring tries since defensively we are likely a person short and as you say the try is inevitable.

@D_Thompson0 Nothing I'm going to use: ultimately it just delayed the try. You know I prefer to leave the defense to others and win by scoring more tries than the other team. I was always thinking about the fans 🤣

Amazing

@phrontist3r1on Do you deliver?

If you're going to do a cocktail calendar for Advent, well then you need supplies #CocktailCalendar2023

@mcsmartypants Learn how to make artisan pizza maybe

@D_Thompson0 Exactly. Maybe an even dozen

Imagine thinking because you don’t have kids you aren’t busy. Imaging thinking because you don’t have kids you aren’t a caregiver, overwhelmed and exhausted. Imagine thinking because you don’t have kids, you don’t have a job that demands everything. Just imagine.

@phrontist3r1on Not even for a drink?

@D_Thompson0 The odds were great but sadly my gambling stakes aren't at the vacation in Europe level; they're more at the: coffee is on me today level

Sad to see that the terrible draw at the World Cup means that Ireland and France play incredible games but still miss the semifinals. Then again, the early draw was France's idea and at least we got great quarterfinals. Plus, some of us parlayed NZ and SA at 5 to 1 on Pro Line

@phrontist3r1on Title checks out

I've been on trips to NYC, Copenhagen and Singapore this year and - despite being older than the Ottawa LRT - the systems there are faster, accept payment directly from modern smart phones and I never saw them fail in dozens of uses.

I know it doesn't even crack the top ten of problems with OCTranspo, but the card readers are absolutely terrible: very slow and they fail with a false negative at least 10 to 15 percent of the time.
