  • It can't get anymore priceless than this...

    I've been called many things in my life...

    Most people don't speak French and I would never expect them to pronounce Duuhneeese properly. I've been called 'Dennis' as in a boy's name (all my life), most Chinese people pronounce it a 'Deeneese" and lastly my favorite of them all 'Dahneese'. The list of variation continues as I get older... And that's just my FIRST name.

    Keller is such a German name, it doesn't get anymore Deutsch than that. And again 'L' to most Asians is a tongue twister. In Japan I watch in amazement how most hotel staff hurt themselves by calling me: 'Ms Kerureru'. And back home, cab drivers get a kick out of calling me 'Ms Killer', which I don't mind so much. In return I get an imaginative movie scene, jumping out of the car with my mobile being a gun. I digress...

    I arrived at HK airport for Mastercard's Luxury Week Press Conference recently, only to be picked up by my limo driver with a signboard that says:



    Very riceless...I mean, priceless..

    I feel your pain! I went through 23 years of having my maiden name as Pondiscio. Teachers could not pronounce it without me writing "pahn-DISS-see-oh"  next to my name on the first day of class. Then there was the joy of spelling it over the phone, "That's P as in Peter, O-N as in Nancy, D as in David, I-S as in Sam C-I-O-my-go-what-a-name!"

    I thought my troubles would be over when I married a Clemens, but then I have even that mis-spelled as Clemmons, Clemmens, Clemants and every variable there is!

    LULZ... If that was a band I'd totally buy their CD. Are you sure that car was for you? I'd hate to be the guy who's real first name is Dense and have to be stranded at the airport....

    Hahaha! Too funny!

    In HK, when I try to give my name over the phone, even when I spell it out for them ("Ivy, that's I-V-Y"), they always seem to hear IDY or IBY. How difficult can 3 letters be?!

    You will not believe how many people see my name, and then proceed to tell ME that I'm spelling it WRONG.

    But Dense Kenner is up there.
