Has anyone else noticed this?


I was telling one of my colleagues about AU and why its the most wonderful week of the year...

....And what kind of positive impact this event has had on my career 
....And how it has been worth it to pay for the thing out of my own pocket some years
...And what a great value it is when you consider that the meals and hotel are INCLUDED!!!!

I started telling him about all the tips and tricks i learn at the event and how it has made me the Fire-Breathing-CAD-Monster that i am today....

The first class i ever sat in was a Lynn Allen "90 tips in 90 minutes" rundown of all the new features in AutoCAD 2006.  I was awestruck...
....not just by the material (which was awesome for an AU freshman)
....not just by Lynn's enthusiasm for the material (i thought i was the only person who got excited by CAD tips and tricks)
....but also by the big bodyguards who escorted her out of the hall and around for the week.  (I guess when you're the only hot blonde in a sea of CAD geeks, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.)

No disrespect is intended to Lynn by this post.  I think she is GREAT...i just thought the whole situation was kind of amusing.  So i am describing this to my co-worker, and i decide to look up "Lynn Allen" on Google Images to illustrate my point...


As we are looking at the pictures, there is another quite attractive blonde who has several photos mixed in.  And that's when i realize that the real name of Ginger Lynn, 80's Porn Star, also happens to be "Lynn Allen"

ouch...

AU 2012 starts now....
