Bill Bercik
Bill is a good friend that I got to know during my work at Borland in Scotts Valley. It is really hard to describe the kind of person that he is in a short paragraph, or even by one person. But I’ll try with the following memories:
Experiences that I Enjoyed with Bill
- Beer ride to Chico, CA, starting with beers on the Amtrak, followed by beers all around Chico (with Chicken fried steak as breakfast, lunch and dinner), finished by renting a car all the way back to Santa Cruz because we both passed out and missed the train back.
- White water rafting in American River, with Bill driving both ways. We both spent the nex month peeling skins.
- Beer tossing.
- Various beer and special food parties
- Being the beta tester of his business “webpasties”
- Being the customer of him business
Experiences that I should Have Had
- Buy him a beer after I left Borland
- Met with him and catch up after I got back from China
- Bar Hopping on Capitola
- Bike riding
- Visiting him at Costa Rica
- Exotic meat party (No idea why I missed that one)
