Jack Flack Says Thank You.

As Jeff Bercovici kindly noted yesterday, Jack Flack is indeed moving to DealBook at the New York Times, taking his annoyingly disorganized copy boy, Paul Pendergrass, with him.

A bit belatedly, but with a genuine lump in his throat, Jack Flack thanks the Portfolio.com team.

Matt Cooper made the always-risky move of recommending a friend for a gig, and Chris Jones took a chance on the then-odd concept of a flack writing about business spin. Most of all, Jack Flack would like to thank Dan Colarusso and Mark Stein. Dan is a great boss, with a clear vision and a true winner's spirit. Mark is a warm, generous soul with a cold, exacting editing eye. Both Dan and Mark know how to make good pieces better. Even more important, they know how make sure the bad ones never see the virtual light of day, for which Jack Flack will always be grateful.

Jack Flack also thanks his readers for their support, and looks forward to joining their ranks as a regular visitor to Portfolio.com.

Thanks.
