On my
projects I hand out "Ship it" Hockey Pucks. People are honored in two
ways. Those that did well on the project get the puck handed to
them. Those who were "challenged" on the project, get them thrown at
them. So Dan, I have an extra puck here, I can put chicken on it.
Take your pick for deliver. Hehe
Gil, I
vote to change from Chickens to Pucks. To quote the book I got the idea
from "Microserfs" "For every product shipped, it brings us closer to the vision,
a computer on every desk". The Microsoft Ship It awards are acrylic that
is indestructible. The protagonist tried to break theirs. There is
something successful about Cult like environments. DEC seems to be shaping
up to be quite a interesting environment.

"I
want a chicken damnit." I am afraid the last NetPro chicken already has a home
;-)
(It
is proudly displayed with prior DEC nametags and books)
Ditto only my toilet paper is spelled Exchange 2000...
:oP
I
will be at the next one and Gil... I want a chicken damnit. And a nice
NetPro Polo, my last one (kind of blue green) disintegrated and had to be
put down.

A lot of people asked why I didn't attend this years
Fall DEC so I will say it one time, it wasn't my doing... Believe
me.
I
was asked to come and be a booth expert or something, so I began the process
of government red tape to get approval. What I got was 10 boxes of
Toilet paper instead of travel orders. I couldn't trade up the toilet
paper for a rubber chicken in time to get a plane ticket. Then it went
down hill. The final result was, we don't know why you can't go, but
you can't go. And if you go on your own time, it is a Ethical
issue. We can let you go, but we have to pay for it, since it is out
of the country I have to wait four weeks for my orders to get cut, this is a
week before the conference.
So, I missed you all, and I am sorry that there was no Texas Hold'm
tourney. Rich H. from Netpro was deeply
disappointed.
I
hear rumors that Spring DEC 2004 might be coming to DC. This is my and
Kevin S's backyard. So if it happens, I expect everyone
to show up. We will have one hell of a time. And there
will be a poker night, nightlife, and most importantly a good educational
experience. I also vote that the Fall DEC be in the Virgin Islands or
some tropical destination.
I
missed seeing you all.

The Final Chicken hopes to make a cameo appearance at the next DEC.

Second that (or
third that). I could only be there for the first day but that day was
Guido Grillenmeir, Robbie Allen, Nelson Roust (sp?) and of course Gil
Kirkpatrick and Stuart Kwan. It was a great day. Stuart always gives a
fantastic presentation which is not only entertaining but filled with
great information. It is of course great to hear from Microsoft to help
understand their roadmap. Guido's presentation on recovery has great
detail and fully demonstrates the value of understanding the process and
being prepared for unpredictable disaster. Robbie knows LPAD querying
incredibly well and does a fantastic job presenting. It is great to hear
from people like Robbie who use AD to its fullest extent in his current
job and produces such great books to help the industry benefit from his
experiences. Nelson's presentation was great (I missed much of it due to
a con call), and Gil of course always adds a ton of value.
I learned that
Smarties are not what I thought they were (thanks Stuart), and that
NetPro is banning the chicken (I have mixed reactions on this one).
NetPro did a fantastic job hosting this event. My second time attending
and I sure I will have it on my schedule moving
forward!

I'm betting
Gil will chime in here shortly (since I believe you're talking about
his company's conference).
