I had a wonderful time at LIFT again this year.

I saw Henriette, Sig and Maryam and finally met Stephanie– and, in fact, many more people whose cards are in my bag, but I’m in bed and don’t have the energy to go downstairs to get them… :-/

Brian, a couple of his CERN colleagues and I had dinner with Maryam, Nicole Smith and Robert Scoble last night. He’s now a big fan of Brian, but more importantly is bigging up CERN. Brian wants to invite him back to CERN later in the year to do a podcast together.

Laurent – you rule…

I didn’t take any photos. I didn’t take any video. I don’t even have a brain left (Sunshine has finally stolen it) to write anything more about LIFT… so why not read what everyone else wrote instead.

LIFT

LIFT

I’m off to LIFT tomorrow morning. Fondue tomorrow night. Drinks Friday night. Back on Saturday… Hopefully, this year I won’t get into a big argument with a model and hopefully I will get to see Maryam and Henriette.

In the meantime, read the Amazon reviews for the Bible… they made me chuckle.

And this scared me absolutely shitless. Stick with it after the video…

    Phew! I can finally say something about this. Brian was up for Dawkins' job, down to the final three (or was it four?!), but didn't get it. And the winner is...

  • Observer Article -

    Honestly, this isn't a blog just about Brian. That would be really weird... but... indulge me just a bit longer.

    Some of you may have seen the article about Brian in the Observer today. Now, you guys are intelligent and realise that not everything you read in a newspaper is accurate. This was made absolutely clear to me this morning as I was sitting in my bathrobe, hair all over the place, barefoot, all coffee breath, unshowered and read, "he married his American wife, glamorous TV presenter Gia Milinovich, in secret." :-/

    Ah well...
