I know I was supposed to concentrate on strengthening my core and breathing through my anus, but I have a restless mind which tends to wander and, with blue skies and Times Square in the background, wander it...
Why do Broadway tickets cost so much? I feel like I've been asking this question my whole life, but prices continue to rise like an entertainment arms race.

I've got issues. Email issues. You know how it is -- you obsessively check your inbox, hoping there's some life-changing opportunity not sent by a Nigerian, then get overwhelmed by the time-sucking correspondence of friends who seem to have WAY too much free time. And suddenly you're 200 emails...
