8:40p - when you wake up int he morning you can hear the music all around you
Yesterday on Marketplace, they were broadcasting from outside Lehmann Bros. in New York City. They mentioned that as former employees were coming out with their stuff in boxes, not only was the press chasing them down the street with cameras trying to get a comment, but tourists were actually snapping photos.
I know how horrible I felt the two times I was laid off from a company I really loved, believed in, and had put my whole heart into. I can't imagine how much harder that day would have been if some schmoe from Nebraska was standing there with his disposable camera going "Look Edna! A real unemployed person! Not so fancypants now are ya, big Wall Street guy in your three piece suit?"
I was listening to the Sterns' Road Food segment on The Splendid Table today & thinking how much I would love to get their book and just drive around trying all the specialty foods at the amazing sounding restaurants they review each week. And how difficult it would be to plan a trip like that. As that thought i passing through my head Jan says "We actually visited this one while on our Road Food tour, where we take two bus loads of people around visiting our top restaurant picks in a given region"
I have got to get in on that someday.
