"La Comédie humaine" (de Balzac)

viacom co-prez's each made $20 mm + stk opt grants potentially worth an additional $30mm. of course, that's not enough!! leslie moonves lives in LA, & has an apt n NY; however, he was still reinbursed $105m for the period of staying in his own apt, instead of a hotel!!! if that isn't enough, tom freston lives n NY, but has a house n LA, was reimbursed $43m for staying n his own house, instead of a hotel!
u can't make this stuff up!

re: jack & suzy welch's new book: "Winning". talks about integrity, etc... i'm not sure, but its interesting how a major biz exec can cheat on his wife, not admit til after the fact, & act "as if", he was in the right. makes one wonder, once again, about the hypocrisy of ethics. i don't like being preached to about morality, religion, or ethics by those that don't seem to "practice what they preach".

btw, if u caught jack & suzy on "charlie rose" last nite, her ring was amazing, as well as the incredible lack of class it took to openly display. so much for the little people, jack seems to really care about on their book tour across the country

how in the world can we put up with this amazing stupidity by the poobahs that are supposed to protect us - the citizens???
