Greetings from PitchTalks Toronto--Shapiro Edition

Tickets are purchased and we're off to PitchTalks. To see Mark Shapiro and hear his words concerning the state of the Toronto Blue Jays. It's Monday afternoon, 2 weeks into the season, and I wonder what the reception will be like for the current architect of the 2 and 10 team. My friend meets me at my house. Burgers or wings? He opts for wings. Good choice. I head the car for Duff's on College Street figuring it's close enough to the venue, Queen Elizabeth Theatre at the EX.

Hello from PitchTalks Toronto. November 17, 2016 Edition

Prologue

So I'm sitting on the couch, pondering my navel, (I'm considering umbilicoplasty, I want to look younger and you gotta start somewhere ),when a friend calls and says we should go to PitchTalks, drink beer and shmoose with the celebrities. The navel thing is stressing me out and I need a break Tickets are purchased.

What to do on a Jays off Day? Go to Pitch Talks

The ad said, Pitch Talks in Peterborough, with speakers Andrew Stoeten, Jen Smith, Pete Orr, Jeff Blair, Stephen Brunt, and Natalie Stoberman. Monday June 20^th, at Boston Pizza I thought to myself, “I love baseball, and I love beer and I love pizza”, who am I to deny my quest for self gratification? I mean, if you can’t scratch that itch once in a while, it’s just going to fester into something that needs to be lanced. I ordered and printed my ticket, paying the full $20 even though I know Pitch Talks often offers a discount code, about a week before the event. Sure enough $5 off was soon advertised and I cursed myself for not waiting (I’m so weak).
