Last weekend, Jenn and I found ourselves at the wedding of a high school buddy of mine.  Amidst the many conversations with quite a few old friends (as well as some new ones), we mentioned that we would each be headed off to conferences this week. 

"Where are you guys headed?, one of my friends asked.

"Las Vegas!" Jenn said with a smile.

"Madison, Wisconsin," I added.

"Well I think we know who got the short end of that stick", another friend chimed in.  We all had a good laugh.  Though as I thought about what awaited me in Madison, I felt a little bad.  Jenn sure did get the raw deal =)

Because come tomorrow, I'm on my way back to the Games, Learning, and Society - a conference that was, without question, a 2008 Stub highlight and the most inspiring, thought provoking, and rewarding conference I've ever attended.  This years lineup looks even better than last, even after you subtract points for them giving me a chance to speak ;-)  Last year power/ wireless problems limited my level of live blogging/ tweeting, but hopefully a new venue (not to mention an iPhone) will give me an opportunity to up the ante a bit. 

Hope you're ready to hear what an inspired Stub sounds like, because its go time ladies and gents.  Stay tuned to the blog or the twitter stream for updates/ incredible amounts of spam.  Game on!
