It is with fond nostalgia that I remember the Fourth of July, especially the Fourth of July, 2011 when I made this post to Tips:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg05525.html So, who really cares what actually happened on the Fourth of July? It's just another reason to take the day off, have some barbecue, drink some beverages of varying degrees of toxicity, get a sun burn, and watch some fireworks go off (NOTE: for those in wildfire areas, you better limit watch the fireworks on TV -- Macy's does a fabulous job). If you're not in the Good Old U. S. of A., do you really need to be convinced to party in the middle of the week? Sure, I know some folks elsewhere have to work -- I am tremendously enjoying the "grilling" that Bob Diamond of the Barclay's bank is getting by members of Britain's members of parliament on CNBC; see: http://in.reuters.com/article/2012/07/04/idINL6E8I42RE20120704 If you don't want to celebrate U.S. independence, surely you can celebrate the relentless questioning of incompetent bankers, right? Hey! Throw another banker on the barbie! ;-) -Mike Palij New York University [email protected] --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [email protected].
