So one of the non-business things I got to do in Vegas (one of few, let it be known) was zip lining down Fremont Street! So much fun, though you do have to line up for 1.5 hours even with time-slotted tickets to do it. There were 7 of us who went – four instructors

One of my friends got tangled in an argument on Twitter last week about why fiction even matters in the first place.
