Paid Time Off
I take a risk and a "day off" in order to read Henry David Thoreau aloud to you in order to inspire you from the comfort of my garage. I read the following pages, or rather the bulk of them, alone in the woods, a mile from any neighbor, in a house which I had built myself, on the shore of Walden Pond, in Concord, Massachusetts, and earned my living by the labor of my hands only. I lived there two years and two months. At present I am a sojourner in civilized life again.

An old friend calls in and shares his experiences of credit stress while working as a freelance cartoonist in Los Angeles, the city of angels. Luxury goods are brought into laser focus through the lens of Indian custom car culture.

I put on a real toga to illustrate a curious practice in the democracy of ancient Athens: Debt Slavery. A novelist friend gives his two cents on valuation of literary products and labor. We talk around bailout practices on the European continent, analyzing everything from synthetic CDOs to Angela Merkel's "Red/Yellow Button". We come full circle with a brief review of similarities between Puerto Rico and its sister country Greece.
