I'm in the same boat as you... went to 99 in Boston. The "Special Event" was at Gillian's near the ball park. Four levels of eats and games. The crab cakes that they brought around were awesome! Spent the night shooting pool and alternating between Jack Daniels and Guinness (bad idea...). Missed the bus and stumbled back to the hotel. What a night...
'00 in DC was also great. My kid uses the lunch box to tote around his HotWheels cars. Favorite moment was wandering around downtown DC after the special event (skipped most of it cuz the food sucked.) looking for a place to watch the Phoenix Coyotes hockey game. Like you are going to find any television in DC on election night that isn't covering the returns... Finally gave up and went drinking at the hotel bar and shot some more pool... Got absolutely wasted the night before the conference started and just about died (splitting headache) when the overly loud music started for the opening session. <RANT> '01 and '02... no $$$, the cheap bastards! Can't be sending the developers to DisneyLand when there are starving engineers that get $$$ so they can be trained on how to get training... </RANT> Jeff ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dan Haley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Community" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, September 18, 2002 10:56 AM Subject: favorite devcon moments ... Ok, so I couldn't get in on the body shots/open bar discussion because it all came in at the same time in a big lump ... so anyone have any other favorite devcon moments? '99 in Boston -- man, what was the name of the bar that they bussed us all to ... was a woman's name if I remember correctly ... free video games and drinks and food ... then walked back to the hotel with a CFer from Florida and ended up at a hole in the wall bar, something like the Dead Poet's? Can you tell my memory sucks? '00 in DC -- well, of course, the Allaire lunch boxes! And watching the Presidential returns at Union Station where the music wasn't any good and the food was soso and well, Boston was much more fun ... '01, '02 -- boohoo, no money to go ... ______________________________________________________________________ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
