Part of the lyrics from “Brother, Can You Spare a Dime,” lyrics by Yip Harburg, music by Jay Gorney (1931)
They used to tell me I was building a dream, and so I followed the mob,
When there was earth to plow, or guns to bear, I was always there right on the job.
They used to tell me I was building a dream, with peace and glory ahead,
Why should I be standing in line, just waiting for bread?Once I built a railroad, I made it run, made it race against time.
Once I built a railroad; now it’s done. Brother, can you spare a dime?
Once I built a tower, up to the sun, brick, and rivet, and lime;
Once I built a tower, now it’s done. Brother, can you spare a dime?================================================
The price of a mismanaged economy that fails its citizens and the professions.
As architects we might be holding a Denby begging bowl, but its still a bowl, and its still begging…

just when you thought you have seen it all
What you’ve never seen gunmen with glasses?
I thought they all wear them.
