It seems we just had presidential campaigning. Here we go again.
By coincidence my Netflix movie that came the other day was "Inside Job."
I usually fast forward past film previews to get to what I ordered to watch. A while ago "Inside Job" caught my attention and I wondered if, as an award-winning documentary, it might be a good review of the recent financial past.
Its PG-13 because of some occasional rough language and also for the hooker and drugs that shows a perks side of Wall Street trading.
Its also our recent history.
After checking results from a google of "inside job movie review" and reading some of the comments to the reviews I have yet to find any holes in the research and its portrayal. After also reading reader comments on a David Brooks NYTimes piece, "Creed or Chaos," I'm impressed at how articulate newspaper online comments can be for some newspapers. Informative conversation. Seems like there are some responsible folks out there even though we don't all agree. Nice to read other points of view.
Now I see "Inside Job" as a good foundation to the coming season of political discussion which never has seemed to end from the previous campaigning.

It was also time to wash my windows. When they look so nice why do I take so long to wash them again. Now to get Jill to bring her tall ladder to do the upstairs loft window.
"I promise not to hang out the upstairs window."
There I've said it in print.
Washing windows would be a good summer business for some kids I know and to whom I'm closely related.
Just got an invite to Easter dinner on Bryan Ave. I've got strawberries to share for their angel food cake dessert. Yummmmmm.
Happy Easter everyone.
