When you were a kid, did your parents make you get dressed up when you rode on a plane?  Mine didn't, but I kind of feel like that now as I get ready to fly to Dallas, TX to spend two days at Samsung Mobile.  Do I wear a suit?  A suit with no tie?  A button down and fancy pants?  Flip-flops, shorts, and my Foo Fighters T-shirt?

It'll be fine, I know.  I'm only going for one night, and I already know most of the people I'll be meeting with, so it should be fun.  And I've never been to Texas so far as I can remember.  Too bad I won't have more time, as I'd like to have a few words with T.O. and Jerry Jones.  Not that I'm a Cowboys fan, really, but after having watched Hard Knocks on HBO this year I feel like the Cowboys are letting me down a bit with their play as of late.

Anyway ... Who knows what treasures await me at Samsung Mobile HQ.  I'll report back to you next week.  Meantime, I have to pack.  I think I'll take my netbook, my iPhone, and the new Ethan Canin book.  And, oh yeah, I should maybe take the AT&T Epix to play with, since I'm going to visit Samsung Mobile and all.

Maybe they'll take me for some real Texas BBQ.  Mmm, BBQ ...
