I'm spending a few days in Denver this week to visit my friends and co-workers at NewsGator, which is something I should do more often. I'll be here again on August 18 - which as luck would have it is when the Red Hot Chili Peppers (one of my favorite bands) play in Denver.
At the company's "all hands" meeting this morning I suggested that a bunch of us go to the concert together, and asked for a show of hands of those who wanted to go. A surprising number of hands popped up - and they all popped up after NewsGator CEO J.B. Holston said that the company would pay for the show.
I'm working for a company that's paying for everyone to see the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I may never leave this place :)
That rocks.

Hey, if you ever need someone in your general neck of the woods, Nick, you've got my address :) :) :)

Of course, I am jealous that a firm would be cool enough to send everyone interested to see the Chili Peppers.
Need a really good sysadmin-type. ;-)

In fact, NewsGator has several openings for sysadmin types. Unfortunately, you'll miss out on RHCP - they're buying the tickets today...
