    They also employed a six person dance team (3m3f) who were outstanding.
    They made sure nobody missed the shrug at the end. Single spotlight on anotherwise empty stage. Mookie laughed out loud with some others.

    June trip planned to Prague Vienna and Budapest to see what those companies have to offer if you’ll be in the neighborhood
    I have been to the Wiener Staatsoper but only for a tour, never a show. It is jaw-droppingly spectacular. Emperors get sh-t done.

        I had no idea the opera houses were even open in the summer. I thought that was when they crammed in all their auditioning and refurb.

            Alas, poor Sears. I knew them well.

            @nbcwashington: Sears has rejected Chairman Eddie Lampert's $4.4B bid to save the company, and plans to announce its liquidation plans this morning. http://nbc4dc.com/iWHwN7H

                Quelle surprise. Like Jobs, he's a workaholic who probably lives in his office most of the time. I expect he'll be trotting out a younger model very soon.

                The ex, for her part, is about to become the world's most eligible cougar.

                      If Bezos wants to save his companies' reputations, he splits stock at some rate, and a large cash payout, of course. If not, he'll see a lot of Hausfraus leaving finding new online vendors.
