I'm in even worse trouble now. A few weeks ago I had to speak at Barry Ritholz's conference but that turned out to be "only" a panel. It was a great panel but I knew I would only have ten minutes of time so wouldn't need to prepare much although even then I was worried.Now I'm speaking for one hour at Defrag in Boulder, Colorado next week on November 9 and I'm terrified. For one thing, all of the other speakers are smarter than me. Right before me is Roger Ehrenberg speaking about "big data". I'm not even sure what "big data" is so right off he's smarter than me. Then Paul Kedrosky is speaking later in the afternoon about god knows what. Paul has an excellent blog obsessed with everything from economics to weather data. So despite my expertise in speaking I'm finding I'm a bit nervous.I could open up with the same line I used on Barry's panel, "When I was walking over here I had an erection. Not so easy for a 43 year old without any stimulation whatsoever." But this might not be the exact crowd for it.
