"I've worked at The Truth, Ralph, The Picture - but it's only at Fairfax that I've received such stupid correspondence from readers."
Who said January was a quite month ? This is web 2.0, the new new new economy, where speed is the essence, small is big, and every1 is agoggle over the IdreallyfnlikethatPhone esp if it had a qwerty keyboard for crackberry twittering. The deal I was going to close before XMAS (June/Sep/Dec), has slowly, relentlessly and totally absorbed the first third of January.
Deep in Vietnam; getting the first chopper out of Iraq, I'll tell you. We won Cisco. Business is booming, who needs a life, growth "challenges", which bling prognoticians say are a good thing - Just never be the go to person for 8 different parties. It does get the alpha blood rolln tho. Almost done and back to the business of business, hoping. Final roll y'all.
Time slows down, repeats itself, you become Bill Groundhog Murray (and not in Tokyo) sentence wandering off now.. Steve sure can present by the way, dropping Computer from Apple, pranking Starbucks with cartoon character appearances from Revenge of Nerd Schmidt and 5th Wiggle Yang.
So Fairfax's The Daily Truth Blog's demographic segmentation of his employer's target market should give a chuckle to masters of the paper editions, and be a useful powerpoint companion for the sales team at their next beachside switski-vodka fuelled offsite (10 ways to market to an AB baby boomer audience using drinking games in condos with secluded swimming poolz etc.)
I read this and my brain went yup - put it on the blog - it makes sense. Daily Truth : "I've worked at some of the most allegedly foolish periodicals in the nation - The Truth, Ralph, The Picture - but it's only at Fairfax that I've received such stupid correspondence from readers. I don't think one can assume from this that the Fairfax readership is dim, but simply that it has a longer reach than the others, the capacity to mine the depths and scout the fringes of society where one finds a sub-species of humanity the existence of which I was previously unaware: the educated idiot, who can read and write, drive a motor vehicle and operate a computer, but lacks the simple complexity to comprehend such nuances of communication as intent, context, temper and humour."
