From a fairness standpoint,

This really sucks.
The guy was born without Fibulas. Isn’t that a challenge enough? Let him compete.



Monday Morning “Where the hell is my coffee and eggs?” edition

Good morning. How’re you all handling that massive snowstorm that hit the east coast overnight? 5-7 inches of snow, enough to cancel meetings and put the rush-hour into turmoil, huh? It was so bad, that…
Oh, wait.
So this morning finds us with an interesting editorial from Ad Age’s media guy, Simon Dumenco, asking whether or not […]



Ringtones: Playful or Passive Aggressive?

“Where you at - The Whole City Behind Us…” Boost Mobile Commercial, 2004.
Was at the airport last night, happily typing away, when I hear an alarm next to me. But not a routine “beep beep beep,” but more of an air horn “hide the artwork and the silver the Nazis are coming!” type of alarm.
Looking […]



Cleared TSA in 18 minutes. Thought it’d be oodles of worseness

Shared a cab to LAS with Sarah Meyers and made it thru security in just under 20 minutes. Kinda shocked, considering that 84 million geeks were leaving at the same time.
Sitting close to the gate, when Jordan Golson walked by again with his booty… The miserable pillow of D. This pillow is quickly becoming a […]



HotBlogger ™ spotted at Seagate Bloghaus

Caught Sarah Meyers happily blogging away across the table from me here at the Bloghaus.
About to head to the airport, so that was a nice way to end the conference.
(And yes, that’s Scoble’s laptop directly to my left.)



BREAKING: DUMBASS PR BLOGGER DOESN’T RECONIZE ROBERT SCOBLE. BLAMES LACK OF COFFEE

So I’m sitting here in the Seagate Bloghaus, writing up a NY Sun post. Someone sits down next to me, gets on his mobile, starts talking… I try to tune out… I wind up hearing that he’s talking to Owen Thomas of Valleywag. I note that I’m IM’ing with Jordan Golson, of “Hey Gene Krakow: […]



I get paroled a day early for good behavior from Vegas!

Denis Leary once did a funny bit about Cocaine…

Nothing like getting a bunch of coke! Right? That was usually, like, eight balls were usually like four guys on a Friday night. One guy at 8-o’clock goes, “Hey man. Let’s get an eight ball! It’ll last us all weekend!” Four hours later the same four guys, […]



Thanks for the ride, Sony! (Or, how to not be a lemming, Stardate 9472.1)

I met with Scott Jordan this morning for an early meeting - I sit on the advisory board of his company, so it’s always nice to catch up with him.
For what it’s worth, I’m going to start calling him Scott Diddy.
But I do love his products, I’ve been a fan since 2001. And his commercial, […]



CES Monday - Monday Night - Tuesday Morning - They all mesh into one long day anyway…

Where to begin…
My whole “I’m going to blog six things yesterday afternoon all got usurped by the breaking-right-the-hell-in-front-of-me Jordan Golson Valleywag news.
So let’s get to it.
First of all, I’d like you to meet the guy with the cleanest butt at CES, no doubt.

When “Fresh Elegance” shows their new “warming and cleaning” toilet at CES, you […]



Jordan Golson from Valleywag Chokes on Own Foot. Film at 11.

So I’m sitting in the press room next to Jordan Golson from Valleywag. I comment on something, and he runs with it. Nice enough guy, we shared a joke or two. Then, he says to the table, “I love when my editors tell me to interview people and I have no idea who they are. […]
