Casualties of the Golden Age
As reports surface of much lower revenues for movie companies resulting in write downs for future projects, we will have more and more of less and less. SAG, just like the auto company execs, are so tuned out they are striking for higher pay. There is a new game in town which means that studio heads may topple. The Super Bowl has half the parties (sponsors) in Tampa and next to fall will be something the entire country will feel. I speak of NASCAR, the most popular of our sports, is nothing if not a bath of thousands of sponsors who pay for the outlandish structure of each race, including the cars. Baseball will feel it as player contracts are suddenly worth less than anyone had thought---Manny Ramirez, arguably the best hitter in all of baseball will not get the hot contract he thought he'd get. I understand even the hookers are feeling it, reports are circulating that Tampa ain't being real kind to them. Not that guys don't want to fuck everything that walks, it's just that they ain't payin' no 5K for a day of sex and drugs. This means even us flakes who can only afford $25 plus parking and pop corn will be with babes who won't make us puke when we see them in the morning. Happier Daze are hopefully around the corner.

You are a funny dude, Howard. Nice to see that you find a silver lining in this shit storm.
