No, I wasn’t canoodling with U2’s lead guitarist, again, (yar yar yar and good morning) but, via a colleague’s recommendation, I came across the website and subsequent party photos of The Edge. And if you are unsure what this “edge” may be, it is this:
To arrive at the edge of the world’s knowledge, seek out the most complex and sophisticated minds, put them in a room together, and have them ask each other the questions they are asking themselves.
I would ask: “Who chose this color for the drapes?” or “Why aren’t empanadas as popular with my friends as they are with me?” I wend to this point: John Brockman, founder of the Edge Foundation and editor of What Are You Optimistic About? and What Is Your Dangerous Idea?, knows how to throw a party—so much so that I am blogging about it eight months after the fact.
