On Cue

As if on cue, a few days after my post about Christmas in Hong Kong, Penelope Trunk writes about Christmas in the workplace and in society in general - she's gotta have pretty thick skin, as I've read the comments both on her blog and on her blog on Yahoo Finance, and most of them are brutal. Although, you have to think that if all those people are writing comments (good or bad), at least they're actually reading her column. It's kind of like the part of the Howard Stern movie where the TV executives are talking about why so many people listen to Howard Stern - mostly to hear what he will say next. So even though they may not like what's being said, they still want to know what's being said.
