It was a large space occupied by video games, air hockey, and geeks galore. Did I mention I beat <a href="http://homepage.mac.com/wadycki/iblog/">Andrew</a> 5-1 in air hockey? Oh nevermind! </p> <p> At the reception, Andrew and I met a couple guys from St. Louis. <a href="http://www.clientjava.com/blog">Scott Delap </a> and <a href="http://www.europetravelogue.com/blog/">Lance Finney</a> joined us for free beer at the reception and then again afterwards at a local establishment. After having a couple <a href="http://www.guinness.com">Guinness</a>, Lance suggested that we order &quot;Guinness Floats&quot;. Yes, thats right, Guiness beer along with vanilla ice crean. Andrew and Scott resisted but I gave in. It was actually a rather nice drink/dessert. Can't say that I had ever thought of it before, but it was suprisingly good. </p> <p> <strong> Guinness Floats<br /> <img alt="Guiness Floats" src="http://www.shoesobjects.com/blog/images/GuinessFloats.jpg" /> </strong></p> <p> <strong><strong> St. Louis Group<br /> <img alt="St. Louis Group" src="http://www.shoesobjects.com/blog/images/STLGroup.jpg" /> </strong></strong></p> java http://www.shoesobjects.com/blog/2004/06/28/javaone_welcome_reception.html#comments http://www.shoesobjects.com/blog/2004/06/28/javaone_welcome_reception.html Mon, 28 Jun 2004 06:08:36 GMT
