Thanks Sam
Thank you Mark - sterling stuff.
This “Cowboy” is an imbecile. Some fucking idiot who thinks that there is a “war”. The only war is going inside this morons head. It belittles you to even comment on this dope. New York will be chewing him up and spitting him back to bumfuck soon enough. Best of luck to you.
Not one to mince words eh Loren? LMAO…
I had the exact same thoughts about NY and our “friend.” That’s gonna leave a mark… ouch!
Mark, I think Loren’s probably nailed it. A little humble goes down great. On another note, I love NY but isn’t the whole point of new media that you can do it from anywhere (like a freezing city in Eastern Europe right now)?
Hey Sam,
I agree completely.
I was just imagining a small town boy from Montana stepping into the Big Apple for the first time (not that I know it’ll be the first time) with some level of brashness and arrogance. I had to chuckle…
Mark - it’s like LA. Anyone who ’seems really LA’ is from somewhere else. All the real Angelenos don’t fit the cliche. They will still shoot you though.
No, I’m not one to mince words. I try to stay under the radar with most things when it comes to business, but this prick just doesn’t get it. It’s one thing to shoot your mouth once you’ve accomplished something, another thing when you haven’t done shit. BTW I just noticed that I used Imbecile,moron, and dope in one post. Funny. Anyway, as we say here in NYC the guy’s a putz. In terms of the NYC thing, yeah you can do this from anywhere, but NY chicks are still the best. If they’ll talk to you that is.
Forgot to say that if anyone in this biz wants to hook up here in NYC and bs a bit shoot me an email.
Well, on the upside the network hasn’t even been premiered yet and there’s this much controversy. A blog war has already happened-just think of the power you’ll wield once it’s up and running! Walls will crumple, regimes will topple….
With all this hooplah, I hope I get an invite to the launch party-I’ll be sure to wear bullet proof panties.
Hey, yeah, Vixen has a point… is there gonna be a fabulous launch party?
I’d actually consider getting on one of those scary airplane things for that.
Okay - so now I have a party to think about. I think it’ll probably mean more after a few weeks, than as congratulations in advance. If we call the first few week’s beta though that’ll work… I’ve got it - a party when all the blogs get past 100 posts. That way we’ll be dealing with veterans who deserve a drink on my dime (that said - I’m not sure ‘investing’ 100% of take in quaaludes and beer is great management).
I agree. Scotch is a much better investment than beer.
Heh. Yeah, a party before progress is a little bit reminiscent of the bubble isn’t it? And there’s that whole geographic diversity thing to work around. Still, it would be fun to kick back with a few beers at the 100 post mark.
