I look forward to SMX East - it will be my first SMX event (but more then likely I will tell you that I have been to every one of them) - I look forward to having an uncomfortable networking lunch with all of you! - Michael Thanks to everyone who responded.

We could spin off new SMX simulation ideas for ever. This was a really fun post, and worth the wait. @Diane - to recreate the airport experience, set an alarm early and wake up at some ungodly hour before the sun rises. Then get dressed in a hurry and rush as fast as you can to your bathroom door. Wait outside the bathroom for an hour reading some crappy magazines. Then go in and have a 2-minute shower. Before drying off, stand in the shower wet for 15 minutes. Then grab a towel, get redressed, and stand in front of the sink for 5 minutes holding your toothbrush and paste. Shuffle your feet and avoid eye contact with the mirror. After 5 minutes, start brushing. Done this way your whole morning routine should take about 3 hours and you'll arrive at your simulated conference groggy, annoyed, and thirsty for something alcoholic even though it's still several hours until noon. Just like the real thing! @Streko – What an infectious idea for a comedy routine. We could spin off new SMX simulation ideas for ever. This was a really fun post, and worth the wait.

So funny; the part about the networking lunch is classic. I got back from SMX (I’m local so just a short drive) a few hours ago and I can’t stop laughing at this post.

I was totally bummed at not being able to attend, but now I see I can get almost the full conference experience without leaving home. Love the comment suggestion about handing out business cards to yourself. I'm working on ideas to simulate the airport security/flight delay experience as well, so I can truly say I've done it all. Awesome. LMAO! I was totally bummed at not being able to attend, but now I see I can get almost the full conference experience without leaving home.

I'll augment the experience by giving my own business cards to myself throughout the evening, then stuffing them in my pocket to sort through them later in the hotel room. I'll keep them in the front zippered pocket my luggage for a few months until it's time to clean them out and throw them all away... So authentic, I’m all excited now.
