I've taught fifth-year Christmas leavers last thing on a Friday afternoon. Basically if you can face that you can face anything.
Black Friday is not another bad hair day in Wall Street. It's the term used by American retailers to describe the day after the Thanksgiving Holiday seen as the semi-official start of Christmas shopping season.
I understand what's it like to work all week and on Friday night just want to go and leave your brain at the door buy some popcorn and be thrilled by something.
When I was about 13 or 14 I had an English teacher who made a deal with me that I could get out of doing all of the year's regular work if I would write a short story a week and on Friday read it to the class.
All the actors I respect especially old-Hollywood actors the reason I think so many of them have had long careers is that there is a sort of mystery about them. You don't know what they do on Friday nights when they go home from work. You have no clue. You have this sort of fantasy about them.
I do like escapism. I like going to the movies on a Friday night and seeing something fun.
Now on Friday nights if I want to go hang out with friends I go hang out with friends. If I want to stay in and be in the hot tub and have people over to watch movies I do that.
It takes more than driving to become an IndyCar driver. Gone are the days when drivers show up Friday morning and go home Sunday night. We're all integral to our partnerships commercially motorsports. We're as much champions in the boardroom as we are on the racetrack.
Well I get my subject on Wednesday night I think it out carefully on Thursday and make my rough sketch on Friday morning I begin and stick to it all day with my nose well down on the block.
My aunt had a season ticket for the Friday afternoon concerts and I would go down for lessons. My lessons were Saturday morning.
