la resa dei conti

Well, I’m stunned. My phone just rang and I picked up and it was Jerry Yang. He goes, “It’s Jerry Yang. You think I’m an inept nerd who doesn’t know how to run a company, and I think you’re sleazier than a used condom. Got a minute to chat?” He went on to say that he was calling to address a few things that have been written about him in the press lately in particular about the way he handled Microsoft’s bid to acquire Yahoo. Jerry said he wanted to tell me some things about the Yahoo-Microsoft negotiations, and he wanted me to print these things, but he would only talk to me off the record. I said okay. Now, I can’t tell you what Jerry told me, but let’s just say that I didn’t hear anything that contradicts earlier reports about the failed Microsoft-Yahoo deal, and from what I’ve been told, by a source whose identity I can’t reveal but who is very, very, veryclose to Yahoo, it appears pretty unlikely that Yahoo will be sold to Microsoft at any time in the near future. I’ve also been told, by a very reliable source, that Jerry Yang does not have cancer of any kind at this time, but he does have a little problem with acid reflux, though it’s nothing to worry about.
