The Black Dahlia

Pictured above is the mugshot of Elizabeth Short, better known as The Black Dahlia, arrested in 1943 for underage drinking in Santa Barbara. Born in Medford, MA, in 1924, Short spent her time after high school criss-crossing the country, eventually settling in Hollywood with predictably unrequited starlet-type aspirations. This aimless young lady came to national attention on 15 January 1947, after a stroller-pushing mother discovered her torn body in a vacant lot, torso cut in two and drained of its blood, a chunk of flesh taken from her leg and stuffed up her genitals, her hair freshly shampooed and still wet.



This grisly murder generated a fervent manhunt and several false confessions, but turned up little conclusive evidence as to her killer's identity. Short's press moniker was derived from the film The Blue Dahlia (1946), about a man who murders his wife, written by Raymond Chandler and directed by George E. Marshall.

Barry Manilow - Copacabana (1977)

Copacabana

Singer: Barry Manilow

Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl
with yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there
she would merengue and do the cha-cha
and while she tried to be a star
Tony always tended bar
across the crowded floor, they worked from 8 til 4
they were young and they had each other
who could ask for more?

At the copa (CO!) Copacabana (Copacabana)
the hottest spot north of Havana (here)
at the copa (CO!) Copacabana
music and passion were always in fashion
At the copa.... they fell in love

His name was Rico
he wore a diamond
he was escorted to his chair, he saw Lola dancing there
and when she finished, he called her over
but Rico went a bit too far
Tony sailed across the bar
and then the punches flew and chairs were smashed in two
there was blood and a single gun shot
but just who shot who?

At the copa... she lost her love

Her name is Lola, she was a showgirl,
but that was 30 years ago, when they used to have a show
now it's a disco, but not for Lola,
still in dress she used to wear,
faded feathers in her hair
she sits there so refined, and drinks herself half-blind
she lost her youth and she lost her Tony
now she's lost her mind


At the copa... don't fall in love
don't fall in love

a C.E.O. Test

The NEW YORK TIMES SUNDAY BUSINESS published a great and interesting article interviewing the chairman of CCMP Capital, Greg Brenneman. That article cover a lot of topics, including the title CEO test.

Also it includes other questions i.e. the keys to effective leadership, what to communicate to the staff on your first day at a new company, and how quickly to respond to emails from staff and customers. That is a longer article, four pages. However, it reads quickly and is well worth the time.

At the beginning

Once more, I realized that I had not fallen in sleep yet.
