Did the usual song and dance with @joebobatl at the #IABnet meeting. I don’t think anyone could tell I was partially drunk.
A couple of glasses of champagne to celebrate DoubleClick Studio launch, then back to the #IAB agency council. Hope no one notices I’m drunk
Let me try again…DoubleClick Studio is Live! http://studio.doubleclick.com/

Ordered Johnny Walker on rocks, got a pint of scotch with a cube in it. Not the way to bartend, even if error was in my favor.
Feeling a little under the weather. Should I panic?
Kinda hot out
Wife has copy of first Portfolio mag. Think it could become collectable item as “last major magazine ever launched.” Thoughts?
Sci-fi novel: Swine Flu kills every single pork-eater on earth. Jews, Muslims, and vegetarians only ones left. Still fight over Israel.
My son’s got a ponytail, a play water sword and baggy patterned shorts. I must teach him the way of the toddler samurai.
Dreamt GOOG asked me to fake my death in a space shuttle launch like CapricornOne #classicoj
Watching # on #Hulu.

In Wash Sq with kid listening to jazz. Wow, I’m a good dad.
Nothing like Chinatown pork bun and venti iced coffee for breakfast
Products that should exist: a) pickled lemon or lime twists; b) cocktail shaker noise muffler.
Or, if you’re not going to give me a pickled lemon twist, why can’t I donate my unused lemon to the poor and sourless?
Hardest problem in raising kids is not eating all their ice cream.
Six student presentations: 4 very good, one needs work, one embarassingly bad. Very good showing overall!
Wow, student presos are amazing. I’m ready to become an angel investor.
At Columbia Business School hearing business pitches from students. My question to them always is “are you really going to do this?”
For me it was “escape from your children by coming to work” day
Put off responding to someone’s email for so long that they changed jobs and now have a new email to ignore at the top of my inbox.
Realized that the Atlas in front of Rock Center is an affront to St Patricks across the street. The view from the escalator behind to see
Free time…what to do. Think I’ll sit in a Starbucks scribbling madly in my notebook like a crazy person.
Sometimes a New Yorker article is just too obscure and boring, even for me. This week’s piece on the history of Russian bell ringing? Yep.
Discussion topic: Can you satisfy the “public notice” requirement for an LLC with a blog or do you still need to buy an expensive ad?
Good day to come to work — Dim Sum in the cafeteria!
Taking a break for a couple of hours by going to the office. Teaming up with my arch-enemy Geoff from Atlas to give an IAB webinar on VAST
Dinner with Kid at DBA backyard garden. Kid and daddy quite happy.
Accidentally ate some pizza and cupcakes at kid’s school.
SoHo during day: who are these people, shouldn’t they be at work? East 30s during day: No idea there were this many skells. NY=Skelltown.
Getting X-Ray on wonky ankle. Obama, will you please make these nincompoops move to electronic records!? Paperwork is insane!
X-Ray negative. Prognosis: deal with the mystery pain until it goes away.
Bought an expensive umbrella. It opens *and closes* with one touch. How long until I lose it?
Canoe CEO sounding a lot like a newspaper CEO circa ‘04. Educating the audience, better ways to buy old media, cookies don’t work #IABnet
Presenting video standards with @joebobatl at #IABnet
Wow, another video ad server. Good luck with that. #IABnet
At the Eyeblaster presentation. That’s some serious vaporware! #IABnet
“dwell time” of 60 secs avg. Way higher than data from others. But no definition of “dwell”. BS gives rich media a bad name. #IABnet
Call out for VAST in IAB keynote. #iabnet
Wearing a tie is the new not-wearing-a-tie
Kid watching Sesame St: “They are puppets. Heh heh.”
Burt and Earnie dressed as cowboys and sailors in this episode and singing about “rocking their bed”
Decided on cupcake instead. Am equally high and paranoid.
Do you think a toddler birthday party would be improved by a bong hit? Just asking…
In a room of three-year olds after the pink birthday cake has been devoured. Pray for me.
