No, I didn’t qualify for a March Madness basketball slot. Rather, I will be joining my colleague and Team Public Affairs head coach (at New Media Strategies), the esteemed Howard Mortman at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner (which some beltway-ers know is called “Prom,” referring to the fancy-schmancy-meets-pre-party-meets-invite only-meets-see-be-scene-meets-after party nature of the event)

It gets even better… Howard and I will be conducting onsite interviews via my Twitter account. If you are interested in checking out a new angle on covering this event, please follow me by going to the site, or putting my “track” on:

I will also take your questions, if you @ message me, or Direct Message (”DM”) me :-)

More details from Howard at his blog, www.ExtremeMortman.com here (he is calling it “Prom 2.0″ — how fitting, the Wit is strong with this one)

I wonder if anyone will roll-deep in a stretch limo like these prom-goers I found via Google images:
