Congrats to brother Ted on his MVP award. He's right about the synchronicity in more ways than people could guess. My good friend Scott Hanselman had a great story about his being found in his spam folder. I'd like to amplify that story a little bit-). So, late in the day, we had seen all these MVP awards being handed out (via blog posts) and hadn't seen ours. Late in the afternoon, I was polling my wife to check my email at home and send it to my client site. Nothing. I pinged Scott in IM and we both wondered if we hadn't made it. So we talked for quite a while. Then mine came in. His didn't seem to be there. I told him to check all his email. Nothing yet. Later that night he sent me email that he found his in his Spam folder! -) Scott is one of the smartest people I know and this is a well deserved award in so many ways.

Also congrats to my good friend DonXML, who gets his in a most obvious area-) Congrats to James Avery who is keeping a list and to everyone!
