Re: WWRUG09 AT THE HARD ROCK HOTEL in LAS VEGAS! ADM:We are drifting
Sigh. I suppose I am supposed to point out that we are quickly degenerating into what should be classified as Friday Humour. So, if everybody registers by Friday for the conference, along with the great discounted fee, and having the knowledge you'll be there, we may also decrease some of the less on-topic posts. ... dan p.s. I didn't have to google Cole Porter, oh, I thought that said Cold Porter.

I kind of threw it together, so forgive if it isn't up to our usual standard of high quality (wait...do we have one of those?) To the tune of "I Get a Kick out of You", by the immortal Cole Porter (for those under 40, Google him), here goes. I get no kick from coding ITSM is quite an (ahem) But I've got a favorite drug, Yeah, I get a kick out of RUG. Birthdays are now just a bore Since 51, what's really one more? But let me just put in my plug That I get a kick out of RUG. Dan and the gang will be there Twinkies may fly to the light fixtures high If you ask Lenny and Doug They both get a kick out of RUG. We're in Las Vegas this year Great place to be and some fun things you'll see But if you can put down your mug, You'll get a lot out of RUG. So get your boss to send you, Promise him booze, if training budget he'll use, And only free drinks will you chug For you get a kick, (just don't drink yourself sick!) Yes, you'll get a kick out of RUG.
