I SAY THE MYTH OF THE UNFLAPPABLE ENTREPRENEUR IS BULLSHIT
For more than a decade, Rick Turoczy has been a vital connector in the Portland startup scene. His résumé runneth over, starting with his role as co-founder and manager of Portland Incubator Experiment, which just celebrated its 10th anniversary as the granddaddy of Portland startup accelerators.

UNRATED DIRECTOR'S CUT OF MY WILLAMETTE WEEK INTERVIEW
You may have seen the print edition or the online version of my interview with Willamette Week, this week. I was humbled by the opportunity to take part in this article. And it was a great way to commemorate the milestone of PIE turning a decade old and Silicon Florist turning a dozen years old. I mean, it’s not every day that your projects reach ages where you can talk about the years in euphemisms, simultaneously. Or something. And stuff.
(NOTE: This is a 23 minute read. Might want to save it for Sunday morning.)
