Mind Gravy

Codeapalooza is coming up this Saturday, September 6, 2008, at IIT of Wheaton at 8:30 AM - 5:00 PM.  This event is FREE so get registered now.  There will be plenty of sessions for you to choose from to attend.  You can view the agenda on the website.

I have set up a place to go afterwards and we will be going to Charlie’s Ale House, which is right next to the venue.  They have room for about 40 people so it’s going to be first come, first served. 

We might also hit up some of the bars in downtown Naperville later if people are willing to stay out a little later.

I’m gauging the interest of a pre-conference event on Friday.  The White Sox are playing the Angels at 7:10 PM and there are plenty of decent seats available.  If anyone is interested in this, leave a comment and I’ll see what I can do to get a group rate.

See you there!

Words…should have sent a poet…

Due to some unforseen circumstances, I won’t be going to the Western Michigan Day of .NET.  I would have liked to have seen everyone, but it will have to wait until next year.

Or they can all come out to the Chicago ALT.NET conference that is coming together for September ‘08.

For those interested, I’ll be attending the Western Michigan Day of .NET.  Chicago didn’t have one this year, and I couldn’t make Iowa Code Camp this weekend, so I’ll be driving out to Grand Rapids on May 11.

I hope to meet up with a couple of my Twitterfolk there as well.

I want to build this in our family room:

I think I can convince my wife.
