In 2012 NFL commisioner Roger Goodell was paid 44 million dollars. I have no idea if that was justified or not, but I bet there are many equally qualified people out there who would do the job for a million per. I wonder how much each season ticket holder would get if 43 million were returned to them. Maybe it wouldn't be that much. Then again, anyone who can afford what pro sports teams charge these days probably doesn't care.
The floating book shop had a visit from two stalwarts today. Crazy Joe, the scourge of local radio talk show hosts, went into a rant on his thesis on immigration, and it wasn't pretty. "Send 'em back," he demanded, "it's not a one-way street." He attracted the stares of passersby. Why anyone would let an issue like that upset him so is beyond me? I felt sorry for him. At least Ol' Smoky was in a mellow mood, reminiscing about old DJ's like Cousin Brucie and Alison Steele, the Nightbird. "I can't stop talkin'," he said. "Maybe it's the benzedrine makin' a comeback."
My thanks to Alan, who bought a Brad Thor thriller, and to the Russian gentleman who purchased The Cold War: A History by Martin Walker.
