3/6/08 What a long day! I have a suite to myself which is nice. The hotel is big game hunters lodge – odd place for a conference in my opinion but the rates are decent. I have a comp bottle of wine so I guess I have no complaints. I need a glass after some of the presentations that I sat through today. I understand that not everyone is a great presenter. I myself am ok but there are better. I think if your are going to present at a meeting you should at least have a pulse. During one of the presentations I saw people nodding off. Email equipped phones were the saving grace of this meeting as people were constantly checking their work email trying escaping the presentation. I myself and escaped the presentation but jotting down notes for my blog posting! I think I’m going to have a glass of merlot and crash for the night.
