On Tuesday night I had a chance to eat dinner with a bunch of the Microsoft Developer Evangelists and Developer Community Champions. It's great to be able to get together as a group from time to time to talk about how things are going, what exciting...
[ Update : apparently some people outside the US don't have Dove bars. What are they? A little piece of heaven on a stick. Very creamy vanilla ice cream covered with very rich and creamy chocolate. Click here for my other post about them. (But be...
I met a few new Portland nerds (well, they've been in Portland for a while, and they're not new to Nerddom, but I'd never met them at a Nerd Dinner before, so that makes them a new Portland nerd (and no, that does not mean that the world revolves...
As a gang of us were invading a restaurant, someone spied Anders Hejlsberg. Heh. I couldn't resist. (Sorry Anders!) With Mr. C# (among other things) himself...
Lunchtime. Ah, yes. A bit of a Mexican flair to the meal. I ended up scraping everything off the tortillas and using them as a "pusher." No, I didn't eat all the black beans, much to the delight of my roommate. As you can see, I went with...

Well, there was a tremendous turnout for the Portland Nerd Dinner last night. The MSDN folks came to see what all the hoopla is about. They even bought us some crappy mall food. (Boy, do they know they way to win the hearts of nerds.) The MSDN’ers...
As in 5/18/04. As in … it's almost here! Be there and be square! ( Some of the folks from MSDN will be joining us .)

Some of the wacky MSDN folks want to see what all the hoopla is about with these Portland Nerd Dinners. They're going to drive all the way down from Redmond to join us at the May 18 Portland Nerd Dinner . (I wonder if they're going to drive a...
[ Major edit: Wow. While I was in my hyper-geekified stupor late last night I somehow originally scheduled the next PND on the same night as the next Portland eXtreme Programming user group meeting . What a dunce I am... and I've exposed myself to...
I'm headed back to Boise on Thursday (as in 6 hours from now -- have to love those super-early flights!) to join in the fun at the Boise NETDUG meeting ( http://www.netdug.com ). It's been a few months since I've been out to the Treasure Valley...
