A summer's quote

This was one of my favorite quotes from the summer. Much like my single most recommended read {Reminiscences of a Stock Operator}this is written in the language that I find myself thinking. Over the years, I've found it very difficult to find anything written in the same pattern that is my daily grind. When I do find it, my appreciation for the author soars. IMO, this could have been written about my thought process...

This is from Minyanville's Jeff Macke on 06.21.10.

"You don’t think American viewers can handle listening to both me and the Today Show simultaneously, Comcast? Please. Right now I’m admiring the red outfits on my friends Melissa Francis and Trish Regan, emailing Melissa to tell her I admire her outfit, writing this column, surfing the web, getting stock quotes, playing Google Pac-man, pitching you guys a business idea about which I’m only 80% kidding. We’re a nation of multi-taskers, spraying revenue opportunities in infinite directions 24/7/365. You guys want a bigger slice of the pie? Turn up the stimuli on your new division. Give it more Macke."
