Speaking of surreal…imagine my surprise to see my face plastered on the front of TechCrunch this morning with Arrington jokingly calling me their new "unofficial mascot."  This is great exposure for Startup Schwag, and the honor has earned Roddy and I orchestra tickets for The Crunchies this weekend.  I’ll be in a tizzy making last minute flight and hotel arrangements, but there’s no way in hell I’d miss an opportunity like this.  If anyone there wants to meet up, drop me a line…this green shirt should be pretty easy to spot amidst everyone else’s fancy dress.  =]
