A Post Is Worth a Thousand Words

-
I will use the best possible commentary to the best picture I have seen in a long while, to introduce you to one of my favorite blogs around:



Pictures like this are what dreams are made of: Berlusconi’s vintage moment of Italian overaffection… Medvedev’s uncomfortable “can’t believe you’re touching me” expression… Gordon Brown looks like he’s lost… both Asian representatives sticking to typically straight, honorable postures… Africa’s reprehensive (Meles Zenawi) off to the side, clearly an outsider… Saudi King Abdullah is looking awfully mischievous… and of course, our commander in chief, thumbs up and as confident as ever. If there is a picture out there that better captures the current state of global leadership, we haven’t seen it.

Two corporate sector veterans (although the picture maybe a little predated) watch in awe "From the Balcony" as the world is falling apart.

True stories from Finance and beyond, that no one could possibly make up, and would normally leave the rest of us speechless, along with comments in the immortal spirit of the legendary Waldorf & Statler.
