News Analysis

Thanks to all of you who commented or e-mailed about my new gig at Worth. A few quick thoughts:
1) 02138 is in good hands. The new owner seems like a terrific guy, and co-founder Bom Kim, one of two Harvard alums who came up with the idea for the magazine, will be staying on as well.
2) I’m all fired up about Worth, and that’s why I decided to join Sandow Media rather than stay on with 02138. I’ve always loved helping to start new magazines, and even though Worth has been around for some time, that’s essentially what this job will be.
3) I will still blog, yes, and I’m sure that I will still blog about Harvard.
4) You have no idea how much it drives me to distraction that the Yankees keep getting beat by the Tampa Bay Rays. My only consolation is that the Red Sox aren’t much better.
5) Thanks, as always, to you, loyal readers. You are what makes it fun to do this blog.
6) For those of you keeping track, it has now been several days without an anti-Hillary tirade. My doctor says thinking about Hillary too much is bad for my blood pressure.
7) Onward and upward. Always.

Just remember, Richard, Hilary loves you no matter what you say or do. She really really does. And if you drive an SUV, she’s got a deal on gas that’s made just for you…..

Congrats on the new gig. But I’m sorry to say that the Rays aren’t going anywhere — they have a legit shot at finishing 3rd in the division this year. Besides, what do you care about the Red Sox? Yankees have to hope for the Wild Card again this year, at best…

Weren’t we promised timestamps? And is a preview function too much to ask for? Yeesh. We not too demanding around here.

Congrats on your new position. However, I’m surprised you left 02138. It seemed that you’d be the perfect fit to make something out of that magazine considering your book and knowledge of Harvard’s inner workings. (There were some great stories in there during your tenure.) I hope you can one day share what made you switch to a financial mag.
