The annual ConvergeSouth to-do is kicking off tomorrow in Greensboro and once again I won’t be able to make it.  My problem is that they continually schedule these things when I have other work-related things I can’t get out of which leads me to ask, "Have they no consideration?"  Do they continually have to schedule this thing when it’s convenient for them and not for me?  Sheesh.

Anyway, I wish I could be there but I’ll be helping run the 2007 Competitive Intelligence European Summit in Germany so I won’t be able to do the Converge thing.  (Yeah, I know it sounds cool running a show in Germany, but when you consider that I don’t speak a lick of German, that I’ll be confined to a conference hall for seven days, AND I’ll miss my daughter’s birthday it gets considerably less cool sounding).  I’m sure ConvergeSouth will be great and I’m fairly certain I’ll get over my disappointment by this time next year at which point I’ll probably be disappointed again.  So if you’re anywhere near NC A&T tomorrow you should definitely check it out.  They want people to pre-register so they can feed them, but if you’re willing to not eat I’m sure they’ll let you in.  And tell ’em I said "hi."
