Denver JUG and Rock Bottom Brewery
Last night was a fun night. First of all, Mike Clark spoke about TDD development
at the DJUG and he wowed me with his presentation abilities. I think he could
have presented on just about anything and it would've been entertaining. He had
a fair amount of humor in his presentation and came off as a true Montanan (a.k.a. very cool guy).
I talked with him after the meeting as a whole bunch of us were entering Rock Bottom Brewery and
my suspicions where confirmed. I look forward to the next time I hang out with
Mike.
At Rock Bottom, it was all about drinking beer and bullshitting about Java. I sat
across from Rod Cope (Out of the Box) and next to Bruce Snyder (Geronimo/Castor). The topics
ranged from Groovy (Rod is speaking about Groovy at the Denver NFJS) to Spring
to Castor and Kids (Bruce has a little one that's a week and a half younger than
Abbie). I had a great time talking to these guys and look forward to our next
meeting. It won't be long until I see Bruce again - he's attending SD West next
week. He reminded me that next Wednesday is St. Patty's day, so since I'm part Irish -
it should be a fun night.
St. Patty's day is also both my sister and Julie's
sister's birthday - neat eh?
I didn't leave downtown until 1:00 a.m. - a great
Java-infested night it was. Thanks for the conversations and the booze folks -
I had a great time.
