Good evening. My name is Kitty.

I could have married, have given gallons of blood, and I can't stomach whelks. So that's me for you.

Leonard Rossiter's Best Television Series. Rising Damp or The Fall And Rise Of Reginald Perrin

Finished up binge watching The Fall And Rise Of Reginald Perrin. Think it wins by a hair if only because with middle age solemnity setting in can see how Mr. Perrin didn't handle mid-life crisis very well.

"The Pennsylvania Railroad and the Milwaukee Road electrified their main lines at roughly the same time, using the same suppliers, at roughly the same total mileage. One of those systems is still running trains at 150 miles per hour today. The other became a bicycle path. This is not a story about which railroad made the better engineering decision — both made sound decisions. This is the story of why the same correct decision produced one of the most durable pieces of infrastructure in American history on one railroad, and a catastrophic financial loss on another. The answer is not in the wire. It is in what the wire was built to serve."
