QUOTABLES!
quote of the day
I have a great respect for incremental improvement, and I've done that sort of thing in my life, but I've always been attracted to the more revolutionary changes. I don't know why. Because they're harder. They're much more stressful emotionally. And you usually go through a period where everybody tells you that you've completely failed.

Paper-thin OLED TVs, triple-screen laptops, selfie drones and AMAZON's ubiquitous ALEXA - here's the top tech from this year's show in our new REDEF TechSET: Best of CES 2017... Speaking of CES, you know you've been in VEGAS too long when you not once but twice press the floor number you were staying on at WYNN in your own apartment building elevator... Not of fan of news organizations reporting facial expressions as actual thoughts and reactions to what someone is watching or listening to. Lame and bottom feeding... With all the divisions in our country, I think we can all agree that MERYL STREEP is not an overrated actor. In fact, she's such a good f***ing actor that I have an exclusive to break here: She's been portraying DONALD TRUMP the entire election. Either that or BIFF TANNEN is PEOTUS. Ugh. Imagine if he was one of SOPHIE's children. Would there even be a choice? Save your outrage Pro-Trumpers, I'm just messing around... If I didn't have a job... Books and covers. Some of the morally reprehensible and wrongly motivated power-hungry people in the world are extremely polite and graceful... Formatting in documents is very important to me. I like standards and easy to scan stuff... Everyone should be binge-watching FX's THE AMERICANS to prepare for our reality and next season... UBER Movement... I'm thinking of moving to fantasyland... New HOMELAND is on VOD. Watched it last night and it escalates quickly... I've never been to a GRATEFUL DEAD show. But I will be seeing their 4-hour doc, LONG STRANGE TRIP, at SUNDANCE 2017... Happy Birthday to JON PATRICOF, HERB SCANNELL, CASH WARREN, JOE GREENSTEIN, JOHN SHAKER, STACEY PASHCOW, MELISSA BREITBART, and AMY FRIEDLANDER HOFFMAN.
