Took a couple of days off, relaxing. After the magnificent Heritage Turkey meal on Thursday at the Zuiker’s house, we had lunch at Neil’s Deli in Carrboro yesterday and at Weaver Street Market in Carrboro today. Yesterday we saw “Inside Job” about the way sociopaths in the financial industry systematically screwed up the national and world economies over the past 30 years. Today we saw “Fair Game” about the way sociopaths in the government act when exposed to be liars – the Joe Wilson/Valerie Plame outing episode. Don’t believe me they are sociopaths? Watch both movies – they are excellent.
