Right. So for those of you who don't know part time job is doing media analysis on US politics and the banking and financial industries. It's been a rough week.

Right now, I'm working on data about the "collapse" of Canary Wharf.

That is, the inevitable financial real-estate mess as all its tenants go bankrupt. But really? I have to do this? And I can't drink coffee? Are you fucking serious?
