Philly's cheap...but not like that

Just so we Philadelphians know how good we have it:

Salary/COL comparison for move from New York to Philadelphia

Given this information, I don't know why there aren't truckloads of refugees pouring in from Manhattan.

The Organization Kid

I'm double-posting a link to an article called "The Organizational Kid" on my own blog as well as this collaborative thing. It's by David Brooks and it is a profile about our generation.

Here's the tantalizing summary blurb: "The young men and women of America's future elite work their laptops to the bone, rarely question authority, and happily accept their positions at the top of the heap as part of the natural order of life."

Cry out loud;

Do not hold back!

The Quarrel, as told by St. Benedict

There were two old men who dwelt together for many years and who never quarreled.

Then one said to the other:
"Let us pick a quarrel with each other like other men do."

"I do not know how quarrels arise," answered his companion.

So the other said to him:
"Look, I will put a brick down here between us and I will say 'This is mine.' Then you can say 'No it is not, it is mine.' Then we will be able to have a quarrel."

So they placed the brick between them and the first one said:
"This is mine."

His companion answered him:
"This is not so, for it is mine."

To this, the first one said:
"If it is so and the brick is yours, then take it and go your way."

And so they were not able to have a quarrel.
