Where to begin? Let’s rewind to last night and the “special event” at The Cowboy Dance Hall. I use quotation marks because it really should be called what it is, a bash. Party is too tame of a word. The bash was simply incredible. Kerri Dunne, and her team, hit a grand slam with this one. The location was the perfect size, and there were plenty of bars and serving stations so that lines were never discouragingly long. Aside from the time I spent playing Texas Hold ‘em (with play money), I spent the evening with friends, old and new. The band was excellent, and had the whole place hopping, playing cover tunes from the 1980′s. Lots of great rock, none of that wimpy pop crap. There was also a bull riding show that I hear was very entertaining as well. I don’t think it was a coincident that the music volume seemed a bit lower this morning when we entered the conference hall for the general session.
I’m not going to get into too much detail about this morning’s session. I’m quite sure it’s been written about quite a bit already. Let me just summarize it: SolidWorks 2012 sneak peek, cop cliches, SolidWorks AEC, fast modelers, Dell, 13 year old flute playing lock picker and Kevin Bacon. That should paint a clear picture.
I’m now on my way back to Seattle, and the real world. Though it’s more than a year away, I’m looking forward to SWW 2012 in San Diego.
I have a few interviews I need to transcribe, and will be posting those in the next few weeks.
Just a few more weeks until spring training. GO RED SOX!
