\"TELUS\"One of the features of The Canadian Telecom Summit is the opportunity to network with colleagues in the industry that you otherwise might not get to see – to schmooze. Except that I was a little tied up at the conference.<\/p>\n

So, I am making up for that by going to the TELUS World Skins<\/a> match for a couple days this week.<\/p>\n

Strictly business.<\/p>\n

I promise not to have any fun.<\/p>\n

I’ll be meeting with people and … ummm … checking on the reliability of wireless data from rural Ontario. That makes it a research trip. Yeah – that’s it.<\/p>\n

By the way, yesterday, on the way back to my northern office from the Raven at Lora Bay<\/a> golf course, we passed a sign for the “Fry Guy” advertising portions “from Small to Honkin’ Big.” We turned the car around to get a honkin’ big order – $7.40 including all taxes for the equivalent of 3 mediums. It’s a long drive to Bracebridge. If you ever find yourself on Horseshoe Valley Drive heading north of Hwy 26, look for the Fry Guy on the east side of the road. Be sure to check out the view from his gazebo.<\/p>\n

Sometimes, you just have to stop and smell the french fries.<\/p>\n
