Across the great divide. (Cue The Band's song of that exact phrase.) Disgusting how wealth inequality was on full display, but I guess in a lottery-ticket society, these spectacles sell to the masses. Oh, the humanity. Before the flood? Or after the deluge? I'm waiting for the UFOs. (A few more song references for you, Miquel.)

Nailed it in so many ways w/ this one Mike. ‘Kartrashians’ might have been my favorite w/ using ‘gauche’ to describe that embarrassing spectacle of a wedding was #2. I remember my days @ Deutsche Bank when we took Amazon public & doing meetings w/ Bezos in the process - was as you described, just a goofy tech-nerd w/ little personality. Now look @ him!!!! Keep up the good work!
