Random Scrap:
Within minutes of our conversation, Barry was showing me some of the movies he was editing. Many of them involved mannequins and mice. There was also a floating fish (sometimes dozens of them) with voice over what it seemed to be a modified voice of Barry in several pitches. Everything seemed so bizarre. I was fascinated. Barry then started to explain to me that his goal was to finally create an internet TV channel responsive to needs of individual users. There were actually a lot of other ideas that we discussed. The overall message I took out of the conversation was that eventually we were going to rule the world. The conversation became very interesting when we finally started discussing how I could make the websites more interactive. YouTube was still an unknown word so my ability to upload movies and then add some graphics to it became very valuable. When the conversation shifted to the number of hours per week I could commit to working in the office it was hard for me to contain excitement. Barry then asked me if "five hundred dollars per week would be ok for now?"
