Seattle Conference - those were the days. I think I was drinking Tequilla
(100% Blue Agape) with that woman on Thursday night (the conference party)
in the basement of the one bar with the band...
Remembering Hangover - oh yeah...That's when certain people were trying to
convince me to run for/volunteer for/get on the IIUG Board of Directors.
Must have been the Tequilla.
As to Marketing - I'd love to - let me at 'em.
