Goldfinger
What happened to integrity?
I don’t see it on MTV
All I see is choreography
And I’ll never be a dancer

LA Confidential
Some men get the world; some men get ex-hookers and a trip to Arizona.

Ally McBeal

Notice that there is a star in front of the numbers for the above equations. Equations thus identified in the remainder of the text are to be forgotten. The equations are unimportant and any student who commits them to memory deserves to spend his entire electrical engineering career grabbing the hot end of a soldering iron.

After all the records sales and returns,
All the magazine articles we did and didn’t get,
All the retail positioning and restocking,
All the downloaded figures from SoundScan,
All the wondering if we’ll have a late night showcase at GMA,
All the deadlines we met for ads, film, interviews, and giveaways,
All the jockeying for position in an already oversaturated market,
All the top -5, -10, -15, -20, -25, and -30 radio slots,
After climbing through all the demo tapes each morning just to get to our desk so we can track down the number for That Magazine,
All the tours we didn’t get considered for,
Bands we didn’t sign but should have,
Festivals we didn’t know existed until it was too late,
Festivals we couldn’t get in because of lagging record sales in the area,
After agonizing over whether the band should be smiling (and therefore happy to be Christians) or frowning (and therefore regarded as artists) in the pictures,
And all the creative spin doctoring, conniving, and cajoling to make sure our records are being noticed in places like Deerlick, ND and Cut & Shoot, TX,
Did anyone hear about Jesus?

Clare Boothe Luce,Socialite
Money can’t buy happiness, but it can make you awfully comfortable while you’re being miserable.
