Microsoft is a company that demands great things from you, and you have to work hard.  They also make sure that they take care of you here.  I'm at the Microsoft Global Briefing (last week and until Tuesday), and while we had some long days and bad cases of numb-butt from the chairs, tonight we had some cool entertainiment.

For almost two hours, we were treated to a Smashmouth concert!  I can't tell you how much trouble I'm in with my wife - it's her favorite band in the world - but I did get some pictures and recorded some vidio with my little Sony T1 for her.  I was already informed that this requires a present to make up for it, so I guess there's still some shopping to do.
