LET HIM SING! Petition
So, some major tension has erupted here in my office -- basically, I have been demanded by Ricky Van Veen, my dear friend (or so I thought) and business partner, not to sing during work hours because it is "annoying". While I understand that I may not always be on key, or necessarily know all the words to the songs I sing, I feel that it is important for every man to chirp away as he pleases. What is a man without song? NOTHING!

Now, I am asking for your support, my TRUE friends. Please sign this Petition, encouraging Ricky to change his mind ... because afterall, everyone could use a little more of Britney Spear's Toxic in the morning.

This petition is a sham. If anybody reading this had to put up with Zach's god-awful crooning directly following waking up in the morning, you'd feel the same way.

And the worst part is that not only does he sing off-key and fumble through lyrics, he repeats the same line of the song over and over.

Bottom line- somebody get the kid a muzzle.

Hi, I'm Zach. I grew up in Fort Wayne, Indiana and graduated from Wake Forest. After college, I moved to Manhattan to get serious about a company I ran with friends. We sold it to Barry Diller's InterActiveCorp in 2006. I just wrapped up with a project I co-founded called Vimeo and left CV to focus on being a twenty-five year old.

I have another blog called Copy and Taste, where I post about learning to cook.

I live in Brooklyn now.
