Big Advice From a Nobel Prize Winner

Amazon will be announcing their new tablet - the Kindle Fire - tomorrow. By all accounts, the spec is underwhelming, and certainly won't bother Apple, or hive off iPad fans. But content will sell this device, especially bundling it with Amazon Prime. And anyway, I think the real target here is the Nook Color.

"But as for playing a man with his mitts on the levers of power; who can move others to corruption, murder and mayhem, with equal parts charm and menace . . . well, as one Buscemi fan put it to me, he is so not that guy. He is not Nucky Thompson. He's Nucky's expendable sidekick. The kind of loser at whom Bruce Gordon as Frank Nitti in The Untouchables series would famously bellow "You're DEAD!""

Indeed I do, a "preview of the HBO series "Boardwalk Empire." http://tbdeluxe.blogspot.com/2011/09/st ... mpire.html
