			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I’m calling a Tweetup for the Kitchener-Waterloo/Cambridge/Guelph area – otherwise known as Canada’s Technology Triangle.&#160; If you’re on Twitter (or curious) and live in or near the Triangle please join us!</p>
<p>The venue is the <a href="http://www.dukeandduchess.ca/">Duke &amp; Duchess Pub</a> in north-east Cambridge at <a href="http://cambridgevoice.ca/directory/places/ca/ontario/cambridge/the-duke-duchess?l=Cambridge,%20Ontario&amp;q=duke%20and%20duchess">Hwy 401 and Townline Rd</a>. <em>Someone might want to bring along a proper website for the D&#038;D!</em></p>
<p>The date has not yet been set. Please visit <a href="http://twurl.nl/pep7wv">ScheduleOnce</a> to let me know which dates you would be available. The date with the most people available wins.</p>
<p><strong>Update: The date has been set. December 9th </strong></p>
<p>See you there!</p>
<p><strong>Update</strong>: Apparently Guelph is <strong>not </strong>officially part of the Technology Triangle - rest assured you are still invited. <a href="http://twitter.com/designmeme/status/1011563354">@designmeme has suggested</a> forming Canada's Technology Rhombus... we can discuss at the Tweetup. ;)

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Backstory</em>: About <strike>ten</strike> fifteen years ago when I was doing my flight training in Guelph, I got what was far and away the best haircut of my life.  Four barbers, none of whom seemed to speak english very well, and there wasn't an electric razor in sight.  It wsa straight edges and eather straps.  Pretty frickin' cool when all your used to is your standard run-of-the-mill cheapo unisex hair salon.</p>
<p><em>1.5 years ago</em>:  When I started working in Guelph, I needed a barber in town.  But I couldn't even begin to remember where this awesome barbershop was or even what it was called.</p>
<p><em>Last week</em>: I was at the Tim Horton's on Woolwhich street in downtown-ish Guelph.  I looked up (and across the street) and lo-and-behold, there it was.  <a href="http://www.truelocal.ca/search.aspx?q=barber&amp;cs=Guelph,%20ON&amp;k=150663159" title="Best Barber Shop Ever">Franco's Barber Shop</a>.</p>
<p><em>Monday</em>:  I got the second-best haircut of my life at Franco's.  Things have changed little in ten years.  My guy used an electric razor, but I'm not so disappointed in that.  Basically, this is the best barber shop I've ever been to - sorry <a href="http://www.truelocal.ca/search.aspx?q=barber&amp;cs=Waterloo,%20ON&amp;k=150305376" title="Second Best Barbershop">Sean</a> &amp; <a href="http://www.truelocal.ca/search.aspx?q=barber&amp;cs=cambridge,%20ON&amp;k=151140758" title="Weirdest Barber Ever">Danny</a>.  If I still lived in Waterloo, I'd be torn between Sean's and Franco's - but since Sean's is not convenient anymore, Franco's is the clear winner.</p>
<p><em>Just in case anyone cares about where I get my haircut. :) </em>
