Ok I'll probably have to eat that. But, I love her insights, she keeps me in touch with the hip and trendy Techno world. I never fail to tease her about being the Party Animal, because her exposure at Mashable led her to so many meetups, and events. <br><br>I'm happy to see that her mentor, even if he doesn't know he is, is almost my age. Age adds balance to youth, and what more could you ask for in a Mentor relationship. Man this guy has been to Katmandu!
