On his Tumblr blog today, College Humor founder turned big IAC dude Ricky Van Veen lays out the politics of "New York Power Meals," as told to him by a "good friend/scene veteran" (OMG Barry Diller?). The breakfast part is kind of confusing to us, but then we've never been asked to breakfast (and we're totally fine with that!):

"Breakfast means you’ve got a current deal to discuss (if you already have a relationship) or you’re willing to consider a relationship with someone new, but that person isn’t especially important."

We totally agree with the coffee part (so Betty Draper!), but our burning question to Ricky is: What about brunch?
