Ronnie noticed my dour face.
"Harry, you look even more miserable than usual!"
"Goddam money monster eatin' my lunch."
"That nothing new."
"Just keeps getting worse. Money is bigger than God."
"You can't say that!"
"Quick, name 5 famous poor people - poor meaning don't know where next meal is."
Ronnie could not.
"See?" I chided. "God doesn't give a shit about poor people any more than we do."
After a moment, Ronnie responded: "Maybe they're famous in heaven."
"Then send me to Heaven."
