David from the Wild Wild East Dailies got a shot at reporting on the DLD (Digital, Life, Design) in Munich, Germany for Technorati.

I must say I’m terribly disappointed. He promised us gonzo and gave us Pollyanna. –I wasn’t sure if I should fall asleep or hug my computer.

After tossing back the first three fingers of tequila from my coffee cup, I decided that the only person who could do serious gonzo reporting and get away with it was the esteemed doctor of gonzo journalism, Hunter S Thompson.. RIP.

But I don’t think David’s getting paid to write this shit so he really should have gone for it. Instead he sold out and played it safe. –Sissie!

–He even had his picture taken with Jimmy Wales, founder of Wikipedia and all around nice guy and posted it on his blog.
Probably cool to talk to, but who the hell wants to go to what should have been a world class party and hang out with the nice guys? –Unless it’s an act and he’s got some good shit.

And what kind of a conference is it when you have hundreds of people in attendance and there’s no sex, no drugs and the entertainment is Donovan? Who is not, repeat not, rock and roll.

Sorry. I tend to forget there’s a shitload of difference between a “conference” and a convention.

At a conference everybody stands around and makes small talk while waiting patiently for the next speaker. While at a convention, everybody does things they hope won’t make their hometown newspaper.

This, boys and girls, is how it’s done:

I’m washing down cinnamon-raisin bagels with my second set of three double espressos in the coffee cup. –It ain’t helping, I’m still fucked up but it’s worth a try.

gotta stop because the love of my life is making me walk to the Cannery for steak and those mashed potatoes with garlic. –Whatever keeps her happy Because given the choice between this blog and getting laid………
