Sometime I will elaborate but this will not be a new client of Tailfish or txgeeks. Feel free to contact him here if you are in the market to record ‘death metal praise and worship’ music. (I’m pretty sure that ‘death metal’ and ‘praise and worship’ don’t even go together but I could be wrong.)
If you need to contact him don’t use the email account BriZZell@hotmail.com after Nov 6th, 1999. It doesn’t work. From now on contact him at Light_Force_REC@hotmail.com or ‘WORK (407)-281-7768 (Ask for Richard in the deli.)’ If you have emailed him at the hotmail account listed above since 1999, ‘REMAIL’ him at the new one.

For those not following the news recently, News Corp. (see below) made a formal offer in April to buy Dow Jones & Co (The Wall Street Journal, among others) and an agreement was reached today for a measly $5.6 billion.
News Corp. is a publicly traded company controlled/run by Rupert Murdoch. I was amazed today to come across a wiki entry showing exactly how large News Corp is: News Corp Holdings. Included in the list: All of Fox movies and studio, Fox TV/channels, HarperCollins book publishing, Zondervan publishing/stores, over 100 newspaper publications worldwide, TV Guide (partial) and The Weekly Standard, Myspace, Photobucket, Rugby teams, 15% of the Colorado Rockies, and much more.
Wow.
Mr Murdoch, please read this and then offer a suggestion on what kind of Internet company you would like to purchase next. I would be happy to build it for you and even offer it at a much reduced rate of $1 billion. A steal compared to your Myspace and Dow Jones bids.
In a non-related search, I found out today from a fascinating site (though a little outdated) called They Rule that the inventor of the Internet and our former Vice-President, Albert Gore Jr. has been on the Board of Apple since 2001. Who would’a guessed it?
On They Rule, you can pick two companies and see how they are connected through their board members. Kind of like the six degrees of Kevin Bacon for the business world. You can also see maps created and save by others or view the boards/connections of several institutions like Harvard and Yale.
