dear jeff van gundy,
Thank You. I’ve been on a kick for the last few weeks, watching nearly every playoff game. I haven’t done this in maybe 10 years. Anyway, I’ve been enjoying it but its reminded me how terrible so many of the announcers on TV are. That is, all of them, except you.
So why […]
Dear Barack Obama,
If, you, unlike almost every politician I’ve ever heard (Cory, of course this doesn’t include you), actually tells it like its…we’re going to be cool.
So, those who know me understand my new (last few years) position of remaining non-partisan and working hard not to endorse any individual candidate. Barack, this position has been […]
Via eotw. It’s a two-for-one special here today. A great video courtesy of Chris Matthews freaking out. What a point though. how many of these talking heads (on both sides) reference terms, events, etc that they actually have no clue about?
(the background on this is bush, overseas, seemingly calling out obama as an appeaser.)

This is the donald at his finest. Seriously. You MUST watch it. Whether you agree or not, super-entertaining. And, on balance, I agree with my boy, Mr. Trump.
Watch DT on CNBC.
Agree:
- Oil companies are just having a field day and making a freaking killing. There was a reason why we had public utilities at one […]
Good article on fortune.com by Adam Lashinsky on where Google goes from here. Definitely worth a read.
It’s a fascinating question. Google was a company started by smart guys with a good idea. They stumbled into a helluva advertising model that printed money based on intent (goto.com actually did the work of invented that). They then […]
Like many others, Chris Paul of the Hornets has become one of my favorite players. Though it’s mother’s day, this is a great video about Paul & his grandfather. Also, Jack shared this quality Paul link.
There’s a short-piece (but impressive as a 2-page spread in the mag) about Jhumpa Lahiri and her new book in Time this week.
Lahiri is one of my favorite authors. I loved her pulitzer winning Interpreter of Maladies (though my mom liked it even more). The Namesake was almost a spiritual experience as much as […]
So Fareed Zakaria has a helluva cover story for the latest Newsweek. OR maybe I’m biased because his article overlaps massively with the book that I’ve feebly been attempting to write. The article is sensationally titled “The Post-American World”, but the substance of the article is actually decidedly optimistic.
I’ve been writing since December of […]

Surya is...
an Internet entrepreneur turned Brand Manager. I've “returned” to my roots and today focus on emerging media strategy. And strange as it is, if I look familiar its because I was on the TV show The Apprentice. And, yes, I know it was terrible.
