Great coverage as always, Matt.

If I had to guess, I'd say I smell a Smirnoff TeaParty sponsorship brewing... Wouldn't it be great to be the Biz Dev guy (or gal) on that deal?

it's outrageous activites such as this from new startups playing with other people's money that makes me believe that more pure darwinism needs to be brought into play within Silicon Valley. but a better path than that would be to cull the herd and make an example in the abbatoir out of fractious yearling bulls and cows.

Curmudgeonly yours,

Um ... this is nothing new. It used to be my job to throw elaborate dot com parties back in 1998. We had everyone from Elvira, Matt & Trey (Southpark creators) and Tim Burton alongside a sea of free booze and schwag. I remember hiring fire eaters and contortionists. Nevermind that the piles of money were all imaginary - the women were all real and some of the friendships were too. It's Revenge of the Nerds, baby - bring it on!

My quote was taken out of context and I can't take credit for it since it's a Simpsons line:

http://www.snpp.com/episode...

Rainier: The film is just me in front of a brick wall for an hour and a half. It cost $80 million.

Jay: [contemptuous] How do you sleep at night?

Rainier: On top of a pile of money with many beautiful ladies.

Jay: Just asking. Yeesh!
