Finding Common Ground

2010-05-03T00:05:00.000-07:00

It's no small feat to attempt to understand something rather than get infuriated by it. But, indeed I as often as possible try to start from the humanist perspective that nobody wakes up in the morning and decides to be a douche bag. That's my starting point.

Jerry Yang (July 2008)

2009-06-27T14:22:00.000-07:00

“I’ll admit that I haven’t been following this particular story that closely. Since getting laid off from AOL, my interest in this genre of news only stretches as far as what new horror has befallen my former employer. But I do read through the tales of the Yahoo debacle, and it struck me this morning that Jerry Yang is kind of like the Amy Winehouse of the corporate world. Entertaining for a while, but now just a bit… sad.”

On the Religion of Atheism

2009-05-09T12:14:00.000-07:00

I’m not going to loop myself in with atheists, because they seem so militant. It’s like, even though they don’t believe in God, they have to be so ridiculously enthusiastic about it that it’s practically a religion to them.

Main St or Wall St?

2009-05-09T11:21:00.000-07:00

We may have wasted valuable time trying to save Wall Street at the cost of Main Street. …Has the time come to shift the policy focus away from the things that we love, namely big zombie banks, to tackle those things that are truly hurting us?

"I think BK is the only viable solution to any of these zombie companies. However, what I find ironic and highly problematic, is that a company like GM, which actually MANUFACTURES something, is left to go the BK route, while all the zombie banks, which just push around paper and don't actually produce anything except shit sandwiches and profits for their executives, are kept alive at any cost. I just don't get it."
