Email from my wife →
I just received this email from Greta:
did you get my message? Jack truly rolled over today!!! From his back to his tummy, which is the hard way (tummy to back is easier).

great story in the WSJ about changes in advertising
Users should control their own data and networks should develop that allow increased interaction between consumers and companies. I’d love to work in this area, because I think it’s an exciting and explosive area for growth, and it will continue to shape the future of information distribution.

Jack meets Uncle Nick →
Nick & Leena came over on Saturday afternoon. Nick did his best to corrupt little Jack, and as a result, he won’t be allowed to see Jack again until he’s 21.
Tuck Profit: new issue is out →
New issue here.
It’s actually quite good, for something that wasn’t created by me. It is strange to see new content on the site. I am excited to watch it grow and flourish, and I hope that it remains a positive force at Tuck.
So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

Finally! Bishop Christopher Herbert to retire! →
I couldn’t be more excited that the Bishop of St. Albans is set to retire on January 7 of next year. The man is hogging my Google fame and I wish he’d be shot….that is, if it wouldn’t generate headlines. I guess I really wish he would just fade into oblivion. Every time the man farts, there are 18 news stories proclaiming the news to the world. Finally, he’ll be gone.
Soon I will be the most...
Too late. →
Someone beat me to the punch. Oh well.
Ratatouille on the Wii? →
I continue to amaze myself. This morning I ideated a brilliant new videogame for the Nintendo Wii.
Ratatouille.
The player would use the controls to cook, in the same way that the little rat in Ratatouille controls the boy-chef. You would cook soup, make an omelet, and of course splash the sauce onto a perfect Ratatouille. It’s all about the motions of the hand and wrist.
Anyone Can Cook.

Tuck Profit is BACK! →
I am proud to report that the Tuck Profit is making a glorious return to the Tuck community. My legacy will be preserved.
Although it will be difficult to take credit for the brilliant articles that Dennis Lasko and his staff will write over the next few months, I will do my best. After all, I have lots of experience taking credit for other people’s work.
The Future of Television →
My friend and former classmate Alasdair Trotter recently sent me a link to a website called Issuu. The site allows users to upload and share PDF’s.
The first PDF that Alasdair uploaded was a paper that we wrote together last spring entitled NewTube, the Growth of Online Video. In it, we analyzed the strategy being pursued by Fox and NBC in the creation of their online TV portal. (Hulu is in...

Can’t believe he just ran off the field. What an a-hole.

Insulted at Work: “You Look Like Tom Brady” →
I started a new project this week. On the second day, my teammates sat me down and told me that I look strikingly like Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.
I’ve never been more insulted in my life. It’s a good thing I’m extremely overpaid, or I would have walked out of the team room and never looked back.
Sure, I’m good-looking. But I’m not an arrogant, smug know-it-all with a bastard child. And...
Do we really want MORE government? →
