Headed for Honolulu four shows on the road is enough for me for a while and I am looking forward to getting back to the studio.

Hi Todd glad to hear your headed back to the beautiful Islands, can’t wait to hear your take on the Microhoo mess. Are you glad it won’t go through. Personally I’m fairly pleased, I kind of like Yahoo on its own. I think Microsoft will be fine if they concentrate on their core products. They have a fine web presence on their own. I’m beginning to have a slimy feeling about Google though, a little to big for their own good. If they start handling Yahoo search I wonder if the justice department or the EU will take notice or are they still buying the “do no Evil” nonsense. They are a public company, they’ll do what they can to maximize profits, they will do no evil until it costs them revenue or eyeballs. Like for instance, in China, maybe. Cheers, hope your trip went better the second half, you sounded a little stressed Tuesday. Take care.
