We are pegging out in a very comfortless spot… . We are in a desperate state—feet frozen, etc., no fuel, and a long way from food, but it would do your heart good to be in our tent, to hear our songs and our cheery conversation

I like singing in the car...

…as much as the next guy.  But somewhere between my senior year in high school, I lost the love.  I think it mostly was because I spent some hard years in Boston, when my 1959 Wagon (see http://www.hotrodhotline.com/feature/2005show/05firecracker/assets/images/db_images/db_nuGene_Ewankiw_47_Willys_wagon.jpg for an example) was taken from me and I was forced to take the subway in the freezing cold, walking in the rain against wind, sleet, and snow.

When I finally started driving again when I moved back West, I found myself listing to NPR.  Don’t get me wrong, I love NPR.  But it doesn’t quite have the same effect as singing to your favorite tune as you ride to work or school.

This morning, I sang on the way to work.  And I loved it.  Tomorrow, I hope to do it again.

A Scary Line Has Been Crossed For VCs
This is an interesting chart.  I have been thinking how this relates to the internet space.  Creating significant 20x “VC type” value on $10M is hard to do on the internet anymore.  The space is so competitive because it’s so easy to create products.  But, it’s relatively easy to create 5x value on $300K.  I have to wonder if the new model is having 3-5 person companies and raising VC money.
