This is Amy Madigan and Ed Harris refusing to applaud Elia Kazan's honorary Oscar in 1999. During the Blacklist Era, Kazan named names.

"What's the tradeoff between time and eye-candy here?"

I worked in IT for 40 years. I've been retired for a year and 13 days, and I have not written a single line of code- or even remotely wanted to- since that last day.
