Actually Joel, plenty of time yet to ebay one of your five questions. I’d drop a few sheets to get my question (so to speak) in front of 500 industry heavies ;-)

Wait a minute, wasn’t Goldberg a big name on the midget wrestling circuit at one time? Dude, watch your knee caps… Seriously…

Here’s an idea: why don’t you and Jason start writing about HR or recruiting or something related to your field instead of incestuously writing about what you wrote in response to what someone else wrote. All of this school-boy bickering has gotten pretty far away from the “emerging recruitment issues in the world” mentioned on your About page.

This soap-opera farce has to end. Or it needs to get a spot on Cable.

Take it to him Joel! I find that listening to some good fight music really can pump you up for situations like this. I recommend the following:

RAP:
Tupac - “hit em up”
Emenim - “Smack That”
d-12 - “Fight music”
50 cent - “wangsta”
or my favorite……….
LL Cool J - “Mama said Knock you out”

Rock:
Metallica - “Stone Cold Crazy”
Any System of Down or Pantera works as well

Country:
Travis Tritt - “10ft tall and bullet proof”
Trace Adkins - “Fighting words”
Toby Keith - “Gettcha Some”

Joel,

Ask him how it feels to have wasted $41 Million of his VCs $48 Million investment in 3 years? And/Or Why he has abandon the Social Networking idea and resorted to selling banner Ads? Oh, the answer to #2 is because of #1. Never mind. Have fun!
