    Notwithstanding what the Post says, Sheehan isn't really a crisis PR guy - he's more of a media/debate trainer. Also, he's usually only on board for a day or two and then goes away to another client. #christmasiscanceled

    After how many years of cancellations does it become the former Xmas lunch, the onetime Xmas lunch, the Xmas lunch of a bygone era, the Xmas lunch of ad budgets past, etc? #christmasiscanceled

    Cocktail party? Man, this is why you wanna work in NYC. In DC, all the think tanks that cancel their xmas parties replace them with "Economic Forums." #christmasiscanceled

    I'm sure those who were laid off will appreciate the irony of a hefty salary being paid to a flack who will try to mitigate the image damage done by the layoffs. #christmasiscanceled

    @TheBusinessGuy:

    Yep.

    Here's a thought, for all the CEOs running around hiring consultants to help figure out how to economize during the recession: cut the salaries of your top (most likely overpaid) employees, including yourself, and stop wasting money on consultants... #christmasiscanceled

    I absolutely love that sculpture. But I wonder - how often did Si even look at it? Which home did he stash it in? Was he viewing it as the world burned over the last year, coming to it for solace as another person might in times of distress?

    How odd that by virtue of something's value - $20 million, a sum only a true plutocrat could spend on a single piece of art - it became less precious in terms of the daily appreciation it could have received from its owner. #sinewhouse

    The NAME! The name belies such ominous portent, especially if you're a media magnate. "L'homme qui chavire" = the man who trips/stumbles/tumbles.

    That being said, what a gorge sculpture. Even Giacometti's going down in value these days? [Sad face..] #sinewhouse

    I've been unemployed for so long now I'm considering bronzing my dog's poo and putting it on a nice looking pedestal to see if any billionaires will buy it. I'll call it avant garde and tell them it will make a great coversation piece for their second gift-wrapping room and even discount it down to a mere 5 million!
