Voices from the Tempe Phoenix Forum

So I was able to sneak into Tempe’s Phoenix Forum with the help of trusted associates and, after twenty minutes, determined that it was just like XBiz Hollywood except with nowhere else to go. While a couple of friends reported the sealing of long-germinating business deals at the Forum, I was most impressed with the number of stray cats on the grounds of the Mission Palms Hotel and the following snippets of conversation:

“This is a fantastic Flash-based application.”
“But what does it do?”
“Well, it’s Flash-based.”
“You need to work on your pitch.”

“Don’t take it personally. She doesn’t even call people back who paid for their admission.”

“It doesn’t do much for the cause when six yahoos go strolling down Mill Avenue with ‘Pussycash’ lanyards.”

“The party’s at Hooters.”
“Hooters? Those girls hate me more than hookers do.”

“I hear next year the Phoenix Forum will be in West Covina.”

“How’d you get past security?”

“These guys like to pretend they’re not making money the way they’re actually making money.”
“Then how do you explain naming your business ‘SexSearch’, ‘Pussycash’, or ‘BangBucks’?”
“That’s not what goes on the tax return. You only see those names when they’re sponsoring an open bar.”
“You’re making this more complicated than it is. See you at Hooters.”

“It was the most useless meeting I’ve ever been to, and I’ve been to some useless meetings. I wonder if she knows she probably shouldn’t have showed up drunk.”
