“It’s all over for you Mickey…”

I have not vanished off the face of the earth (although my cellphone did in New York City this weekend, but that’s a tale for another day).

Lots of interesting stuff over the past couple of days. I’m putting the final touches on the audio for the Scott Monty roast from last week, which was a fantastic time. I was then off to New York City to catch both Avenue Q on Broadway and Ricky Gervais at Madison Square Garden. Both were great.

I also got to finally check out B&H Photo after 3 unsuccessful tries, but couldn’t buy anything because I blew my extra cash replacing my lost phone.  Plenty more going on with Podcamp Boston coming up this weekend, if you are going please send me a line and we can catch up over a cool beverage in what is supposed to be a very humid weekend.

Here’s today’s Marketing Over Coffee:

Ok, I’m back. We were at a wedding in North Carolina for the past couple of days, that’s where this charming young lady saw a flashbulb for the first time. The trip home was an Oddessy through hell, but I’m not going to get into that right now. I’m off for a couple of days for the fourth, and am going to try and make it down to the River Charles for the fireworks, which I haven’t seen in more than 5 years.

I also found an interesting article on Harvard Economics. The author put forth some theories on why the major is so popular. As an Econ major this was my favorite point:

 “A fourth explanation is that economics is a practical and marketable degree. Many economics graduates land starting salaries in six figures. Economics is good training for business school, law school, or a career in public policy. With the growth of health economics as a field, even some pre-meds sensibly consider our department. The list of successful people with economics backgrounds spans many walks of life: Ronald Reagan, Gerald Ford, Diane von Furstenberg, Warren Buffet, Donald Trump, Kofi Annan, Sandra Day O’Connor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Meg Whitman—even Gene Kelly, Mick Jagger, and Tiger Woods!”

The latest Marketing Over Coffee is up and I run with a continuing theme of spam, relevance and responsibility.
