  1. @BrianJopek The corrupt always assume everyone else is just as corrupt as them.

    Doesn't matter what the value is, if the offer sways your attitude or behaviour then you are psychologically corruptible.

    If they can buy loyalty, then Americans have zero principles and are just as corrupt as their leaders (whose loyalty is bought by special interest groups)

    They will take that money back from you in other ways. Give $5k now, destroy monetary system later.

    Nothing is free.

  2. @BrianJopek If they have done this, they are no longer a University and like Tesla 'cars' need to see student applications drop drastically. #ColombiaUniversity

  3. I don't usually share memes, but this one shows an important truth so succinctly that I couldn't pass it up.

    (If anyone knows the original source for the meme I'd like to give proper credit.)

  5. My good deed for the day (I thought so, anyway): our sports reporter, a kid of about 30, was listening to some decent big band stuff in the office this morning. I talked him into throwing on some Glenn Miller and more precisely this tune. He hadn’t heard of Glenn Miller before our conversation; I shared with him how Maj. Miller died in a plane crash in December of 1944. Next thing I know, the office was jammin Glenn. I think I did OK.

    We live in confusion times
    My world is a vice
    Nobody gets out alive
    But you can break through the ice
    Don't Say No
    My wounds are the open kind
    I bleed every day
    I pray for a change of mind
    You can take me away
    Don't Say No

  8. November, 2001, at Kansas City’s Kemper Arena. The kids’ mom and I took the boys to see U2 on the “Elevation” tour. As U2 played this song, the names of all those lost on 11 September, 2001, in New York City, at the Pentagon in D.C. and in the crash of Flight 93 in Shanksville, Pennsylvania scrolled on a huge screen behind the band. Just here on deck remembering.

    Well, you can say what you want
    But you can't say it 'round here
    'Cause they'll catch you and give you a whippin'
    Well, I believe I was right
    When I said you were wrong
    You didn't like the sound of that
    Now did ya?

    I thought I had a girl
    I know, because I've seen her
    Her hair was golden brown
    Blowin' Free
    Like a cornfield
    She was far away
    I found it hard to reach her
    She told me "You can try"
    But it's impossible to find her
