ALT.NET Seattle Registration and Mispronouncing My Last Name

Just a reminder that ALT.NET Open Spaces, Seattle registration is still open, although we are sold out at the moment, we are taking stand-by's just in case some drop out.  So, if you hadn't registered with us, go ahead and do so, and don't let the sold out scare you.  Just keep in mind that you may not be selected, so I wouldn't make concrete plans if you are traveling to get there.

I'm hoping to finish up about 5-6 posts that have been sitting around since last week on F#, the Unity Application Block, Mocking versus Stubbing and so on.  Hopefully today I'll get some of that done, so stay tuned.  That and there is a DC ALT.NET meeting this Wednesday as well.

So, I know this is a random post, but if you caught over the weekend, the "This Week on Channel 9: Feb 15 with Scott Hanselman!" episode on Channel9, you may have noticed I was mentioned around minute 11, and it was a struggle to Brian Keller on how to pronounce my last name.  Don't worry about it, people, it happens all the time, and I usually let people struggle with the first part for a while before I have to hop in.  It's a definite way of telling who knows me and who doesn't...  It's like "Podwa Podwe Probably not gonna work here anymore, that's for sure!" from Office Space.

Wouldn't be the first, nor last I've gotten that nickname. Every time I think I've seen a variation on my name, bam, another one comes up. That of course has left me with 10,000 nicknames since the dawn of time :-)
