My Last Pry: Outside Looking In
http://watertreading.blogspot.com/2014/07/ten-trillion-reasons.html
I'm a man without a corporation. Paddy Chayefsky. Thursday, July 31, 2014. Your money at work. For them. It's all about getting information.they call it trading stocks, but it's really trading information. That's what we were doing. Turney Duff, former Galleon trader. Just peeped Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street, and. To Catch a Trader. Camouflage for leakers on the inside who personally profit by leaking info (in advance, of course) to traders. Poker players don't cheat. In fact, gamblers are, at ...

My Last Pry: August 2015
http://watertreading.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
I'm a man without a corporation. Paddy Chayefsky. Monday, August 03, 2015. Women Should Play Sports: Ronda and Leticia Bufoni. Then there's Leticia Bufoni. Being an LA boy, I couldn't help but be exposed to skateboarding although my first loves were football and basketball. But skating has an element of freedom I admire and the rogue, non-bullshit attitude perhaps best embodied in LA legend Jay Adams. That they're both LA girls - Ronda by birth, Leticia via Brazil - is just icing on the cake. I tell anyo...

My Last Pry: David FeBland
http://watertreading.blogspot.com/2015/03/david-febland-artists-statement.html
I'm a man without a corporation. Paddy Chayefsky. Wednesday, March 25, 2015. Some years ago, I began to produce paintings that expressed my best and worst impulses set out in the context of public spaces. It was time to give my inner devil an airing. Making virtue of vice, I imbued anonymous figures with swaggering power, elevated faceless nobodies to subject status and filled the streets with stalking female mastodons, all in the service of getting even. What to the slave is the 4th of July? History has...

My Last Pry: Message for America: Nucor & its Ole Skool Ways
http://watertreading.blogspot.com/2015/03/message-for-america-nucor-its-ole-skool.html
I'm a man without a corporation. Paddy Chayefsky. Thursday, March 05, 2015. Message for America: Nucor and its Ole Skool Ways. Good interview with Dan Dimicco. He speaks forthrightly and plainly about America, which is refreshing. What to the slave is the 4th of July? Intro, September, 2012. The Econ Meltdown of 2008. With OUR money. I did say "welfare.". Today is different. With a military base in every corner and a bazooka aimed at every citizen on earth, we exist in the era of the first true globa...

My Last Pry: Capitol of Pain
http://watertreading.blogspot.com/2010/02/capitol-of-pain.html
I'm a man without a corporation. Paddy Chayefsky. Friday, February 19, 2010. Beyond a few such bleats of outrage, however, the huge payout was met, by and large, with a collective sigh of resignation. Because beneath America's populist veneer, on a more subtle strata of the national psyche, there remains a strong temptation to not really give a shit. Athletes and gamblers know that they will make mistakes, and the good ones are constantly. Simply because we don't do. Good, and indeed, is. Such a mini-rev...

My Last Pry: Lucero: Llorar
http://watertreading.blogspot.com/2015/03/lucero-llorar_29.html
I'm a man without a corporation. Paddy Chayefsky. Sunday, March 29, 2015. Rancheras were made fun of by us East Los kids, and I suppose the obviousness and sometimes corniness of these popular Mexican songs brings that on. But, like American pop songs, every once in a while, good stuff shines through. Here's the pretty and popular Lucero, singing a tale of love lost, first in the studio version, then live. What to the slave is the 4th of July? Intro, September, 2012. The Econ Meltdown of 2008. Today is d...
