I’ll know that I’ve finally made it in business when a hot Chinese lady starts randomly trying to seduce me.

The older my kids get and have their friends over, the more I sympathize with Carl Winslow.

The Quartering torched his entire career, because he couldn't handle these two guys making fun of him.
People with dog strollers should be deported, no questions asked.
Dog can stay, person must go.

I have been invigorated this week to neutralize those people and organizations who stand in my way.
Energized, not compromised.

Every Assistant Vice Provost for Essential Campus Support Service to Committees on Committee Committees right now
The @WSJ reports this AM on how many colleges across the country are slashing the cost of tuition/room/board as enrollments fall. (Link in replies.)
The inevitable decline in enrollments and accompanying buyouts/layoffs of faculty and staff are not yet remotely close to the cuts necessary to survive the earthquake the birth dearth now shaking campuses: U.S. high-school graduating classes peaked in 2025.
and will decline steadily through 2041.
The Journal did not reveal any school fully committed to right-sizing its personnel or exiting the “sticker-price/scholarship” game. The first wave of college to thoroughly restructure as well as post transparent pricing will win. The others will continue to operate to benefit tenured faculty and redundant/unnecessary staffing and suffer more in the years ahead.
There's no panic like the panic first thing in the morning when the office coffee maker doesn't want to work.

In Iowa City they built the children's hospital next to the football stadium, and they put a window on the twelfth floor that looks down into the field.
That window was designed that way on purpose. So the sick kids could watch.
For a while, that was the whole story. A window.
Then in 2017 somebody put an idea on a fan page. What if, at the end of the first quarter, everybody turned around and waved at them.
Seventy thousand people do it now. Every home game. The players do it. The coaches do it.
The other team does it.
Think about what that is. A stadium full of people who spent all week talking about how much they hate each other, and for one minute they all turn their backs on the game and wave at a window.
Later they wanted a new song for it, so they put it to a vote. The fans voted to hand the choice to the kids in the hospital instead.
I have stopped trying to explain your country to people at home.
I just tell them about the window.
