@anecdotal Nearly titled it "There's a Place in France..." but decided to be more literary.

“The situation has never been so serious; the Fifth Republic is on the verge of collapse. My family has served France for centuries, and if France calls upon me, I will be at its service. The indispensable condition is that France desires the return of the monarchy - a monarchy above parties, unifying.”

He was at home with the flu, journalists from The New York Times confirmed, citing images from Talarico’s home security cameras.

I'm prejudiced (from Western Pennsylvania), but Fallingwater actually is the highest expression of human genius and the single most Lives Up To and Then Exceeds Expectations tourist attraction on the planet earth.

Actually agree with many of the author's points but my grad business education was mostly about linear algebra and calculating the NPV of annuities.

I'm just a simple country MBA, but DJT was a Fordham kid who transferred to Penn in his junior year when it was a non-selective ivy and got an econ BS degree, not an MBA.
