Steve here. My girlfriend came home from a two week vacation and I was updating her on everything that had happened while she was away. Of course, since I broke my toe right after she left, almost nothing had happened, because I'd barely left the house. But I did talk to a Swedish woman.

Henry here. In Oliver Stone’s 1987 film Wall Street Gordon Gekko declares: "Greed is good." That is quite a different fix on greed to the historic attitude of the church. Greed was always considered by the church to be one of the seven deadly sins. It wasn’t good, it was the fast track to Hell.
