Howdy, I’m hosting GeekBeer ([http://geekbeer.info](http://geekbeer.info)) at RubyConf. If you’re planning to show up at RubyConf on Thursday night before 9pm, please swing by the Old Chicago (right next the the Embassy Suites) and join us for geeking and beer. The first beer is on me. Please look for me or Chad F. to get a free drink ticket. We’ll be around the hotel in the mid-afternoon and I’ll be at Old Chicago starting at 6pm. Looking forward to meeting and hanging with all you cool Rubyists. Thanks, David ---

Pre-Conf conflict! Ara, are you offering free drinks in Boulder? 🙂 – James B. “If you don’t write it down, it never happened.” - (Unknown) ---

Unfortunately I won’t be attending RubyConf, but as someone who once lived in Boulder, I definitely will give the Southern Sun (where Ara is going to be at) a big thumbs up. The beer, food, and atmosphere are all awesome, definitely well worth the short trip up to Boulder. 🙂 > – > James B. > > “If you don’t write it down, it never happened.” > > - (Unknown) Michael G. ---

Anyone know of any other late evening goings-on on Thursday, or are most people saving it for later in the weekend? 🙂 Cheers, /Nick ---

How about root beer? No alcohol & no caffeine. – Matt It’s not what I know that counts. It’s what I can remember in time to use.
