I heard a rumor that there's a dash of cash at this event. Is that true? I won't be in it but always fun to watch those.

Interesting rumor, as soon as I find out out more about this I will post on here.

I'll tell you what's not a rumor, all the jconcepts giveaways we have. And the cool layout we have going down this weekend. Not to mention all the heavy hitters coming out of the woodwork for this one.
