when i was very little, i occasionally watched inspector gadget. or was aware that it was on.

when i was a teenager, ferris bueller was everywhere.

when i graduated college, i visited pittsburgh once.

when i started doing development, i would occasionally write to matthew broderick and sarah jessica parker or speak with assistants trying to get them to come to events.

now, i am at home for christmas and somehow, inspector gadget, the film, is on. and it takes place in pittsburgh [why?!?]. and ferris now has an umbrella coming out of his head.

this is why i do not have cable in brooklyn. help.
