Yeah, the emphasis on quarterly results and managing stock prices so the rich get richer has played havoc with the long run.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Because books.
When American Experience did a film about it a couple of years ago, I couldn't figure out why other people didn't know the story at all, but I was so into it. ("Into it" in a horrified way, I mean.)
It's part of NYU's campus now, since 1926 or so, and there was stuff up everywhere about it. I feel like I knew about it before that, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I definitely knew about it before I lived in NYC, so that's why I'm thinking it was the tv movie. I mean, not that I don't know random things from who knows where.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I'd be interested in seeing the movie now through adult eyes because I was traumatized as a kid. nightmares. all that.

The American Experience one was pretty traumatic for me just recently, so.

I'd really like to see the American Experience one.
I treated myself to a white chocolate mocha after lunch with a fellow writer (whoo! right here in town!), and I'm still yawning. Isn't there supposed to be espresso in there or something?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I should have. The coffee shop that's adjacent to the music shop where we work for extra cash is doing training today. I could have stopped by and gotten free espresso. But I didn't, 'cause I'm an idiot.
Also, I'm now hungry.
