and at least the RCMP did not phone me once again at 3AM to wake me up so that I could drive out to rural Manitoba and pick you up when you ran out of gas in the middle of nowhere. You were on your way home from Waterloo just before Christmas and had just dropped your passenger off outside of some small town. It was minus 40 with a windchill and the touch tone phones were frozen stiff but you managed to get the operator who then notifed the RCMP and it was mom to the rescue.
that’s hilarious :) my brother did the same thing this year…

Hi, I'm Matt Goyer, a mid twenties Canadian living in Seattle working at Redfin. In a previous life I attended the University of Waterloo, and founded two companies, Fairtunes and Transpose, and used to work at Microsoft. For fun I drink, shop, wakeboard, sail, ski, hike and play hockey. I plan on building an empire starting with a bar and bakery.
