This is not a man with a blog.
People are slagging on the Google Pay Per Click video ads, and they’re not really even out already. I’ll say this though, everyone that works in interactive has Google to thank for moving a $1billion a year in advertising off television and onto the web. You ought to be a little more supportive of new…
Sarah and I were riding home the other day and heard Sen. John Edwards speaking at a commencement ceremony. The date wasn’t clear, and so it could have been in the middle of the last campaign, or it could have been yesterday. I believe he was in North Carolina though. The contrast in rhetoric in…
Had a 4.5 hour session at the Big Game again that was profitable. Many of the same characters were there, including Scruffy the poker machine. The man will push $100 at a pot and you often don’t really know if he’s got something or not. More often than not, people fold, and that’s how Scruffy…

This last Sunday the New York times ran an article by Kevin Kelly about the future of books and the business model of print.

In perspective, I think I did pretty well, my wayward parents notwithstanding. My sister and brother in law got me an espresso maker, which I’ve been using to make Sarah and I lattes in morning. Several sweet people got me cards, and one pair of friends re-arranged their DC visit to someone else’s wedding festivities…
This is by far the funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time. With Bush having done such an awful job, this was a breath of fresh air. While I don’t think you should watch this as a "wouldn’t it be better under the Democrats", I think it does a good job of pointing out…
Your parents forget your birthday. (Well, two of the three did.) An excellent excuse to update my birthday list, since I in fact forgot my own sister’s birthday 2 weeks ago.
This didn’t occur to me until Sarah observed it, but my guess that Friday night would be a good day at the Big Game was dead wrong. They could barely field two tables, and at midnight were down to just five players at one table of $1/$2 NL Hold’em. I was ahead over $400 so…
