A computer? I'd rather have a butler...

I read that quote this weekend in the wedding announcements and just choked. Made me really laugh out loud. I, like many other professionals I know, are struggling valiantly to get with the program and harness their skills which they have finely honed over the years with the new world of social media. Here is a woman who couldn't give a damn about anything that has happened, or so it would seem, in the last 20 years. But then me, too, I'd like a butler. But i'm happy to say I'd like also to be connected to the larger and ever larger world.

Kate went to a bat mitzvah on Saturday at Central Synogogue which is just drop dead gorgeous with brightly colored mosaaics, intricate tile work and turrets. It's all very moorish and a landmark here in the City. I had never been in the building before and i8t immediately brought me to tears. Beautiful things just affect me like that. So Kate said, "You should cry everytime you look at me."

Indeed.
