    Um, yeah, no. Just by the name of the place, I know it sucks.

    Next time you're in town, or when you know the next time you're in town, shoot me an IM - would love to get together for some good food and beers. Scar can be the DD. *snicker*

    Yeah, I really need to pick a better SPG hotel. I'm usually at the Sheraton Minneapolis West (right by Ridgedale Mall) but there's not much around there.

    That's actually not as bad as you might think. 10 minutes east on 394, you're downtown and the best craft beer scene in the Midwest. 10 minutes west and you're at the best lake in America. All you need is someone to show you what is where. I'd be happy to help.

    Sweet. I'll be there sometime in the ice cold.

    I have liked Wayzata. Got taken to a good restaurant called Cov. Overpriced, but it wasn't on my dime, or my team's budget, so yay!

    Oooh, we should go sledding!

    Wayzata is a nice enough town, but I grew up on the other side of the lake, in Excelsior, which is vastly superior, in my 100% absolutely unbiased opinion.

    We'll of course need to cut a hole in the ice and finish with a dip in the lake. Scar has a nice camera. I'll have him take pictures.

    All this from asking for Mexican recommendations! haha..

    I haven't gone anywhere further west than Wayzata, so that could be fun too.

    Due west of Wayzata it gets boring and fast, but if you go southwest there are some lake drives that are amazing.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    I've worked with partners in the past, but not for several years. The company I worked for that was bought by Dell was 100% channel partner sales, so lots of work back in the day (10 years ago already) geared towards keeping them happy. But these days, I am in an entirely different area.
