Back in 2007 I attended the first SQLSaturday event in Orlando, FL, so it seems fitting to me that on the 18th, just next week, I will be attending the first Oracle Day & Product Fair in Charlotte!

Join us for the inaugural Oracle Day and Product Fair 2011 to discover how the power of simplicity can change your IT from a supporting function to a force that drives business innovation.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to hear multiple keynotes, attend technical breakout sessions and meet one-on-one with product/solution experts of Oracle’s Technology, Application, and Hardware pillars to discuss how you can transform your datacenter and power your cloud with hardware and software, engineered to work together.

After all that hard work and learning, I deserve some personal time, so I will be attending the Heroes Pop Swap event on the 29th! The event is sponsered by Charlotte’s favorite comic shop, Heroes Aren’t Hard To Find, and I will be there as browser, buyer and seller – I’ll have a 4′ table space with comics purchased in lots, typically poor condition, and personal purchases in mint condition. If it is on the table, I’ll probably let it go for anywhere from free to the price of the comic itself; I don’t want to know if the comic is worth $500 unless you’re going to offer me more than the price I paid for it! =P
