Poor Eli

It's mean to laugh at other people's misfortune, but I just can't help it.

Note that we're here at Microsoft in Seattle, or to be more precise, Redmond WA and that fellow ASP Insider Eli Robillard is flying here today...

..or so we thought.

From Eli:

"After the hassle with weather, connecting flights and an unexpected night in Portland, today I landed in lovely Redmond, Oregon. Note to self: It's worthwhile to read the itinerary in advance when you don't book it yourself.

That said, I sorta wish I could stay here the three days. This place smells great, nothing but the smell of pine as soon as I walked off the plane. I just spent a couple hours outside on the laptop editing a book, the sun was shining, this place is great. And the fishing is phenomenal, definitely could be a future destination.

But, not today. I leave at 2, and arrive at the proper airport at 3:15."

Belly laughs all round here in Building 20.
