Jeez, are you reading the whole book?

Fair enough.

I just went through an ungodly amount of work (read: three minutes of typing and clicking?) to say "hi" to Charles, who has been trying to make me come here for years, and I get here and I don't even see him on the first two comments sections I looked at. I'm Audi. Tell that bitch Charles I'm looking for him.

Ignore tense issues on last post. Still looking for that bitch Charles, though.

Huh?! Wha?!

Sorry, I've been sleeping under a mountain waiting to be summoned. Who disturbs my slumber?

Max. I recently won a Yahoo!7 competition with means I get to go to AdTech in Sydney for free. I also get to invite 6 people to a cocktail party with the intention of "networking" we were encouraged to invite our directors, I see them every day, so I've chosen to invite, amongst others, you. I have been asked why. This is my answer:

"Max Barry seems to pertain an unparalleled ability to tell it like it is. Massive egos are rife in this industry, they are inflamed by the tonnes of people who are willing to bolster them. Sometimes the thing I'd like most is an objective, non biased, honest and most importantly a uniquely insightful opinion. I think Max would be willing, and is well qualified to provide that service. I would reciprocate by providing him with the same service, for example "Max, in my opinion, the head shot on your website header is unnecessary. You are not Anthony Robbins and I do not need to be encouraged by your smiling face to read the stuff you write." That is why I want him in my network."

It was a competition of skill, not chance. I'm pretty enthusiastic about my career. There's a short bio on me here: www.bandt.com.au/news/yahoo7-reveal-digital-stars
