 [Cue Reggae music] That's right! UF is going Geekcruisin' in the Eastern Caribbean, from Oct 25 to Nov 1, 2003! Come join me and your fellow geeks on a cruise that promises not only sun, surf, all the food you can eat and dancing you can do, but also a Geek/Quasi-Geek program including Learning Perl, the Digital Camera Workshop, Palm Pilot: World in a Pocket and a seminar put on by yours truly: O What a Tangled Web We Weave. There's lots more including courses on Excel, the psychology of relationships (you know -- with your SO), managing your work environment, and so on! Head on over to the Geekcruises site to learn more and to book your room!
Not only will booking a cruise get you some sweet vacation time, but you can learn something too! For geeks with Significant Others, you'll earn points (but only if you bring him/her along, ahem); and if your workplace wants you to learn Perl, what better way to pick up some chops? (Play your cards right and they might even pay for part of the cruise). Finally, every program fee booked on Illiad's Oddity will see a sizeable portion go towards supporting UF. Happiness points spread everywhere!
This cruise will be one to remember, and I promise to bring goodies you can't get anywhere else. Sunscreen not included.
