’s a pity my favorite mommy blogger wasn’t at the gathering.
RB never fails to crack me up. Read the latest here…

Norm Jenson of One Good Move is honored as Madeline Begun Kane’s “Blogger-verse Blogger of the Week.“
He posts “The Show” around 1 in the afternoon, and for the rest of the day, goes about cobbling together a living, doing speaking engagements, consulting for technology companies, and doing anything else he can think of to earn a dollar.
It’s not the cover of Rolling Stone, but it is a nice two-pager in the Sunday Styles section.

They sing “The Taco Bell Canon” to the tune of “Pachelbel’s Canon.” (Imagine each voice part singing one of the canon sections.)The Taco Bell CanonBasses: I have no job I have no job I have no job Let’s work at Taco Bell!I have no job I have no life I am so tired I’m sick of interviews My mom was right I have no job Altos: Sopranos: Marshall Field’s, Bloomingdale’s, Benneton and Mickey D’s, Dairy Queen, Burger King and KFC and Pizza Hut, Harold’s Shack, Ribs & Bibs and Dominos, Taco Bell, Taco Bell, Taco Bell and Taco Bell and Taco Bell!

Reading Scoble’s blog about his departure from MS, I realize how pissy my ho-humming it in the previous post might seem. Robert’s earnest integrity, his unselfconscious self-absorbtion, his position as avatar of tech bloggers everywhere - all point to a more serious and credible context for this “one man leaves corporate gig for a well funded job with a small company” story. So for anybody who is heavy into Scobleism as a faith or a political practice, I can only apologize for my small and perhaps demeaning sense of the story.
As for Liz Lawley, I wish her nothing but the best!
