Phred

Did I ever mention that I spelled my adviser's name wrong two separate times on my thesis defense presentation. HE had to keep correcting me. Yeah. That was embarrassing.

Wait. So is it really Phred or really not Phred?

Fred is not that hard of a name.

It's actually Frederic L. Kolb. Fredrick has 39 variations. And I bet they didn't even count Phred.

Phred is an acronym that I saw in a scientific paper once. I decided that if I ever name a kid Fred it'll be with a 'ph' because that's just special.
