It’s kind of like Romenesko, with a double scoop of nerd.
Ho, ho, ho.
Hey gang,
As you may have noticed it’s been a bit quiet around here for the weekend. I’m in Toledo thickening my blood for the cold weather that comes with a move to St. Louis (which will take place over the next two weeks, in between holidays and goodbye parties). I’ll post when I can, but it may be sparse.
Have a happy and safe holiday!
Will
Were you going for the Santa Claus look in that picture, or a certain editor at a certain newspaper where you until very recently may or may not have worked? Because the white beard and glasses are actually pretty convincing as the latter.
Wow, I didn’t see that, but you’re correct!
I could also double as John Hammond in the original ‘Jurassic Park.’ At the going away party we could do a live theater scene and you could dress up in all black as Jeff Goldblum for a reinactment of the scene where Dr. Ian Malcolm says, “Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.”
Except, perhaps we could replace “scientists” with “journalists” and make everyone think deep about their future in the business.
Or perhaps not, that’d be kinda a buzzkill. I hear there’s going to be a keg!
Party on,
Will
