Brian then challenged me, James Phillips, and David Treadwell. I didn\u2019t want to turn down a challenge from Brian. I happen to be in Redmond this week, so I thought why not do it with my team here.<\/p>\n<p>I mentioned it to Jessica, who is my great admin, and she then got a bunch of the DevDiv admins in on it (the level of excitement among the admins was through the roof). My whole day was booked, so I had no idea when I would do this. Then my 2 PM meeting got canceled. It was on!<\/p>\n<p>Then the admin team sent email to my team to solicit a volunteer to dump the ice bucket on me. That honor went to Sam Nuziale, dev lead working on our integration into the new <a href=\"http:\/\/portal.azure.com\/\">Azure portal<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We did it out behind building 18 with a bunch of my team there to take pictures and video. They had the ice and water sitting out for about 15 minutes ahead of time, so it was plenty cold.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, I named three more people. I\u2019ve challenged Martin Hinshelwood (update: <a href=\"http:\/\/nakedalm.com\/yorkhill-ice-bucket-challenge\/\">Martin\u2019s video<\/a>), Munil Shah, and John Cunningham. Let\u2019s see if they\u2019ll take the challenge in the next 24 hours.
