    “Alexander: I expected someone to rise to the defense of Newark. It’s an airport safety school, some sort of aviation Brandeis.”

    I’m having a really shitty day and this cheered me up immensely. I love and miss you guys.

    P.S. And from the “duckface” link to the NYT: “Zoe Slavonic, 16, from Nevada City, Calif., whose Facebook page was to duckface what the Frick Collection is to Whistler, saw Mr. Gamble’s video and erased all her duckface pictures.” God bless the NYT.

    P.P.S. You might enjoy my own rant from 2009 about the godforsaken Delta Terminal.
