Things I’ve realized today:

The MacBook Air should be called the MacBook RAZR because:

• It’s thin, silver, solid state (don’t even think about the stock 4200rpm HD).
• All the cool kids (i.e. famous for being famous) will get them.
• In the space of two years they will become ubiquitous.

My six degrees to Tim Ferriss got a heckuva lot shorter due to a coworker’s encounter with him.

I had another thing, too…. wait…

I’ve pretty much concluded that the Internet Marketing market
seems to have turned into a writer’s magazine kind of market -
where your target customer is, as my friend Neil Prussel would describe them,
“wannabes who ain’t never gonna be“

I’ve been reminded by stuff that’s going on
in my life now that you don’t so much get
picked up and dropped off as you get to walk
the whole way between two places.

Society’s a big fan of the pickup/dropoff model,
since it fits into it’s marketing and message.

Buy the car or the clothes and get your soulmate;
buy the beer and get a cadre of bon vivant cronies.

The product is salvation,
and salvation comes through buying the product.

I wish.

The true way out of things is through -
a sometimes slow and slogging walk.

This walk will get you to where you want to be.

Eventually.

That’s the big hangup term for me and others like me…

Eventually.

Not at Internet speed.

Not on a HD ready plasma screen.

Not on mp3, 3gp, or iPod Video.

Eventually.
