I parked my Vibe next to a Porsche, Mercedes Benz, and a Maserati. Student life has certainly changed since my days.

Feeling like a Canucks season ticket holder
The view from the 300-level at Rogers Arena. I got 3 games left to watch in the season. Canucks lost in the shoot-out.

Fear sells – Max Brooks, World War Z
Do you understand economics? I mean big-time, prewar, global capitalism. Do you get how it worked? I don’t, and anyone who says they do is full of shit. There are no rules, no scientific absolutes. You win, you lose, it’s a total crapshoot. The only rule that ever made sense to me I learned from a history, not an economics, professor at Wharton. “Fear” he used to say, “fear is the most valuable commodity in the universe.” That blew me away. “Turn on the TV,” he’d say. “What are you seeing? People selling their products? No. People selling the fear of you having to live without their products.” Fuckin’ A, was he right. Fear of aging, fear of loneliness, fear of poverty, fear of failure. Fear is the most basic emotion we have. Fear is primal. Fear sells.
– Max Brooks, World War Z
