No limos, but I did just ride down the hall in a golf cart.
Did you ever wonder who's been eating all that free food that doctors aren't supposed to accept anymore?
It's the medical group managers, from what I can tell. There's also free booze here. But last night, the Denver Convention Center seriously tested our commitment to consuming freebies. Just as the opening reception was beginning, the fire alarm went off. 
The dilemma: heed the alarm (and the weird burning smell) and leave the building or hit the open bar? I'm sure you can guess the general decision.
The especially brave hooked themselves up at the oxygen bar. Nothing like pure oxygen, liquor and a fire to get the party started.
Note on the post title: I'm not kidding. They actually have golf cart shuttles, as well as a cappella singers and women on stilts pretending to be trees.
