High Finance

I don't know precisely how Marissa Mayer intends to deliver a return on the $1.1B Yahoo! is investing in Tumblr, but I think it's a pretty short path from monetizing puns to profit.

  4. 1 hr delay out of miami now 3 hrs. = bar, right? Need prodding. Walking there now but will await confirmation.

  5. Yes, official rule states that any delay in excess of 1 hr entitles one to a bloody mary. If the delay exceeds three hours, additional beverages may be procured, not to exceed three in total, unless the delay will result in total cancellation of said trip, in which case no limit on drinks is in effect.

    Other good news: i can't be expected to make it into office today.

    Cyndi Lauper on radio. Think they'll put Cspan on the telly?

  11. I'd like you better in Stocktons. Just sayin'.

  12. Drink up, Dan. Geoff's knowledge of the traveler's handbook is spot on. It's a much better idea to listen to him on this matter than Greg.

    ReplyDelete
  13. are there any matters on which it's a better idea to listen to greg than any other human?

  14. Unprotected sex and random Simpsons quotes.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I think that' on his business cards, actually: "America's foremost expert in unprotected sex and Simpsons quotes"

    ReplyDelete
  16. Point of clarification: Greg's experience and depth of knowledge regarding unprotected sex is unarguably world class. However, his counsel in such matters contemplates only opportunities but never risks.

  17. Makes sense to me. Those are undervalued skills.

  18. Three words: shimmy shimmy yaw.

  20. Rooting for the Magic to not win the Draft Lottery tonight.

  21. I would not have predicted Mark to say that.

    But my prediction skills are weak lately. Other than predicting Dave would bad-mouth "Barracuda," which was trite and uninteresting.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I don't even want the Magic to get the second pick. They can't drop lower than 4th. I'm okay with 3 or 4.

    ReplyDelete
  23. First reaction is I want the Magic to take one of the McLemore, Porter, Bennett trio.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Otto Porter, never leaving the Verizon Center as a home court
