Anyone going to CA World?

Still a ways out, but curious if anyone is going to CA World this year in Vegas? I'll be there from the 14th - 20th at the Luxor Towers. Should have a night or two free to meet up w/ fellow Pelicans.

Yes. I will be there. I'm staying at the Luxor as well.

Are you a CA employee?

What products are you going for?

Not a CA person, but our company has a number of their products. I'm going for their Clarity PPM tool.

Chris & Jordi - let's see if we can find a time to meet up. I'll be there on Friday. late afternoon and should be free that night. I'm sure we can find another night or two to meet up.

Sunday and Wednesday nights will be the most free for me, or after the programs on Monday and Tuesday nights.

Chris - which product(s) are you going for? I think most things wrap up at the same time, each night, for all of the various products.

I'm there primarily for a product called Aion, but will be sitting in on some other mainframe and some DB2-related sessions as well.

Don't forget that there are dinners on Monday and Tuesday nights with entertainment.

Last time I went (2007), there was a "networking" night at Ghost Bar on the Sunday before the conference as well.

Bump. Two weeks away.

Should we plan a Pelican night at a local buffet? I look forward to meeting you Jordi. I hope tabs can make it as well.

Chris - sounds like a great idea. I'm wide open every night, unless there's some CA event going on. I haven't taken a look at the schedule yet, but I think most seminars wrap up by 5 - 5:30.

Bump. Next week!

It sounds like Rick Lee will be in town as well.

Tuesday's entertainment is some band called Maroon 5, who I've never heard of, so I probably won't go.

Maroon 5 are actually pretty good.

You've probably heard them by now.

I had heard of them as well, but didn't know any of their songs. Had to look them up and listen to a few of their songs. Not really my cup of tea, but may go just to say "been there, done that."

I'm actually looking forward to James Cameron's speech. I haven't seen Avatar, so hopefully they'll still let me in.

Chris - I'll PM you with my contact info.

Finally able to get online!

Had dinner with myamoto on Sunday. Cool guy!

I'm thinking of skipping the Marroon 5 thing tonight as there is a function tomorrow night I can't miss. Jordi, Josh, tabs, would you be available tonight for dinner? Sorry for the short notice. I haven't been able to get online and Wednesday night thing just came up late last night.

If it's on the internet, it must be true! Good to meet and hang out with you Chris. I wish I had followed your lead last night and called it an evening. Way too late of of a night (morning) for me.

Maroon 5 was OK, but not my kind of music. Other than the Elvis and Police covers, I only recognized 2 out of about 10 of their songs. Still not a bad way to spend an evening, especially after Chris discovered the beer tables had been holding out on us with the Guinness

The sad thing is that you looked more awake than me this morning.

That was only because I knew I was headed back to bed when I ran into you...
