Why do I love this? I don’t know. The most logical explanation is Cats+Internet=Reblog. But I feel like it goes much deeper than that, somehow.

I also really love sushi. Maybe that’s it.

I was walking past the elevator bank and someone shouted at me. I kind of ignored him and kept walking, when I realized they were probably locked in there without a key card. So I walked back and opened the door and it was Jay-Z. I was like: “Um, wow, I really didn’t think you were talking to me!” And then I secretly hummed “New York” as I walked him to Julie’s.

The first ten minutes of MTV.

From Wikipedia:

On August 1, 1981, at 12:01 a.m., MTV: Music Television launched with the words “Ladies and gentlemen, rock and roll,” spoken by John Lack. Those words were immediately followed by the original MTV theme song, a crunching guitar riff written by Jonathan Elias and John Petersen, playing over a montage of the Apollo 11 moon landing. With the flag having a picture of MTVs logo on it. MTV producers Alan Goodman and Fred Seibert used this public domain footage as a conceit, associating MTV with the most famous moment in world television history. Seibert said they had originally planned to use Neil Armstrong’s “One small step” quote, but lawyers said Armstrong owns his name and likeness, and Armstrong had refused, so the quote was replaced with a beeping sound. At the moment of its launch, only a few thousand people on a single cable system in northern New Jersey could see it.

Weirdest part for me is Adam Curry’s line at the end: “combining the best of TV with the best of radio.” There’s been a line in Next New Networks’ materials since we began: “combining the best of TV with the best of the web.” No coincidence that Fred was involved with both.

Ah my wasted youth. (And Tim, you really make me feel my age when I point out to you that Adam Curry didn’t start at MTV for another six years. That was original VJ Mark Goodman.)

My former boss just informed me that I got a “thank you” in the brand new album from The Whigs called In The Dark, which comes out March 16th. This made my day! I love those guys…I seriously may cry! Probably the best project I ever worked on.

I’m so proud of you!

“Please fire me. My boss just wrote this: “Are we on-schedule to have a complete-and-thorough recommendation plan in-place to hand-off to … by the end of February as we discussed and agreed-upon?” Six hyphens all grammatically incorrect. And this is just the beginning.”
