After arriving in Houston for the HP Blades Tech Day 2010 I met in the lobby with the rest of the Bloggers, IVY Worldwide Staff and Calvin from HP. We had a couple of drinks at the hotel and then headed over to Fusion Pizza, right down the road.
The pizza and drinks were very good and during dinner I had some great discussions with @kevin_houston, @Knieriemen, @rbrambley, @kiwi_Si, @StorageNerve and @sfoskett. We talked about everything on how to create a good podcast (Contact Greg Knieriemen if you need to know how to create one, he loves it) to the origins of ProCurve (which we still do not have a full answer).

After dinner we headed back to the hotel where John Obeto surprised us with some Nigerian Palm Wine. I was a little hesitant after the smell but after a couple of drinks I decided it wasn’t to bad. After a couple of glasses I decided It was probably best to call it a night before I wasn’t able to get up in the morning.
