I used to work at Tower 2 of the World Trade Center on the 66th floor. My perspective at that time:
“if the thunder don’t get you then the lightning willlllllll!!!!” Other pictures – an office the size of a football field with a 50 Ft. high ceiling, ticker tape readout on LCDs zipping overhead, banks of pulsing, green, mini-screens in front of each person (clocks showing the time in Tokyo, Singapore, London, Paris, and Sydney on the walls), well-dressed, tall, lily-white men and women, with two or more phones in their hands – looking: at the screens, clocks, and ticker tape – speaking alternately into the phones or to each other for 7 hours straight eerie day, rain or shine, bull of bear – and me, scanning the clear glass windows overlooking the trading floor and beyond the windows at the Hudson River, the Statue of Liberty and New Jersey.
24 years. Looking out, to and past Statue of Liberty on the Hudson, into New Jersey…while all the gaming went on and on and on as if just for the pleasure of it, to no purpose framed in broad vision.
13 years and 11 years, like this too. I notice such crzy numerical patterns…
Above all keep the clam happy.
