The Man Who Brought You Sarah Lacy (tm)
I was supposed to have lunch with someone an hour ago, but well, this person hasn't shown up. So I've been plowing through Memphis video footage. Here's an interview that meant a lot to me, because it's with someone who means a lot to me. The man partially responsible for me being a journalist in the first place, Barney DuBois. He introduced me at my Launch Memphis event-- which was fabulous, by the way. I said a few words, answered some questions and signed a load of books while I gave some of the local entrepreneurs advice. I only had to yell at one of them, who said "Why not blow some money on a
Superbowl commercial if you have it?"

Sarah,
Please tell me that my fears are unfounded, that you are not becoming Mitch Albom?
