Steve Gillmor: "Life is good." Mike Arrington's TechCrunch was one year old yesterday. That's quite a run. I knew it was a hit, the first day I saw it, and I'm proud to say that was pretty early. Mike has a rare talent, and enormous energy. He deserves much success, and I'm sure he's on his way to achieving it. And Om Malik is taking a chance on himself. He's a talented man with a big heart, and I'm sure he'll do well too. Later this week I'm off on a quick trip to NYC on business and to celebrate Father's Day with my dad. He had another close call in April, but once again the Miracle Man pulled through. Three times we thought that was it, but each time he comes through, and each time he's a happier dude, and each time I'm more grateful we got to share these years. For me, tomorrow is a big milestone, which I choose to remember as the four year anniversary of no more smoking for Dave. My record is still perfect, I haven't smoked since June 14, 2002. Not one puff. I am still an addict, and once in a while, very rarely, and for a very short period of time I think it might be nice to have a smoke. But more often I curse the smoker who makes me breathe his or her poison. On Sunday I found myself walking behind a mother, smoking with her two pre-school-age children. I didn't say anything, because in this country in 2006, it's not allowed. But there ought to be a law. Hey, but Steve Gillmor said it all. It's good to be alive! Nothing like almost losing it make you appreciate what you got.
