It's been a while since I've posted here and I originally my plan was to post something about stocks, but sometimes something else just pops up and screams at you, "You must post me!"

This is from Colony Capital's Tom Barrack (via Krugman's blog, via the Financial Times). Apparently Barrack took some time off and stumbled upon... Twilight.

... after “an agonisingly tough couple of weeks” he took some “yacht time” and chanced upon his daughter’s copy of Twilight. “I don’t get it … but I feel it. Taking the agenda-less time to absorb a point of view that I had ignored while loved ones around me relished it was an oasis for my soul.”

So folks, yet more evidence that hedgies are people too. People that can take home billion dollar paychecks and still have a seventh grade girl's appreciation for literature.

Of course I jest (or do I...?)
