Yalie Sells First Book for $1.2 MillionWe’re hearing that Josh Foer — Yale ‘04, kid bro of those otherFoers — has sold his first book, about becoming the 2006 U.S.A Memory Champion, for $1.2 million. Ann Godoff, the president of The Penguin Press, is the agent, and that’s about all we know.

Also, Ivy-wide jealous rage — we feel like we know that pretty well right now too.

UPDATE 6:23 p.m.: All above is true, we’re just idiots for not seeing this written about, oh, a week ago. Burn, strikethrough font. Make us never err again.
