work ? At home ? Maybe a bit. But also read the papers at leisure, catch up with filing and tidying up. Be on ET.

you could read all these long boring incomprehensible articles about why Wall St ended up believing in the Magick Pixie eternal money well. You won't understnad it, but the underlying message that among these people are bigger crooks and greater fools than you could possibly believe comes home loud and clear.
