The Ghost Of Christmas Future
It was 4AM. I had no doubt about that. The clock said as much.
And who am I to argue with clocks? If ever we cannot trust them, the country is done for.
But what were those voices? At such at an hour.
The first to speak was a soft, feminine voice, talking to someone on the landing outside by door, "It's not the way it used to be."
"What do you mean," replied the man, in a voice that was neither young nor old, with a slight impatience.
"Of course, I don't know why I bother," she went on, "I don't think it matters to you anyway."
"What doesn't matter to me," he replied, with growing restlessness…
"Oh, come on… what are you talking about?"
"I mean, you are not interested in me anymore. All you think about is your stocks. You and that damned computer! Here it is, even at a Christmas Party, and all you ever talk about is stocks! Broadcom. Qualcom. Dot.com. Does every word you speak and every thought you have have to involve money?"
"You're being silly…"
"No I'm not. It's you who are being silly. And you know why you spend all your time watching stocks? I'll tell you – fear! You're afraid of life. You're afraid of me. You condense all your hopes and aspirations… all your dreams and fears… into one simple master-passion – making money in stocks."
"All you care about is making money," she went on. "You're afraid to care about anything else! Not about me. Not about Christmas… not about anything. Even now, why you're eager to get home so you can turn on your computer and see how much money you've lost today."
"You are exaggerating," he protested, "besides, I think we're at the bottom. As soon as my stocks come back, I'm going to sell them all. And I won't worry about them again. It's just that I've taken a beating recently…and it's not easy. But that doesn't mean I feel any different about you. And besides, it's not about money anway…it's about our future."
This conversation trailed off, as the holiday revelers moved off to their final destination of the evening – an apartment near mine.
I went back to sleep. Having failed to profit from the greatest period of wealth creation of all time, I could sleep in peace.
And yet… I did feel sorry for them.
While this was taking place, Ebenezer received his third and final visitor of the night.
"I am the ghost of Christmas Yet to Come," said the spirit.
And away they went, the two of them. Ebenezer was scared. Perhaps he feared the future.
The spirit conducted them beyond a full, bright moon… to where the moon shone no more. It was as if a tide of night had washed the stars out of the sky. It was black. And cold.
And then, all of a sudden, a city arose all around them. Its narrow streets, and very high buildings, reminded Ebenezer of somewhere. Yes, it was lower Manhattan. The financial district. It was Wall Street.
On the street, groups of men and women were speaking. But they had worried, haggard faces.
"What troubles them so, Spirit?" asked Ebenezer of his guide.
"You must see for yourself," replied the Phantom, and they drew near a group on the corner of Broad and Wall.
"Amazon…?" asked one, "are you kidding? The bankers got less than 2 cents on the dollar. Shareholders got nothing. Not even a scrap of paper to put on their bathroom walls."
"At least the bankers got something," answered another. "They were lucky."
"Yeah, but who cares?"
"A guy I know cares. He owned the bank stocks."
"You'd think they would have held up better."
"Well, you would have thought a lot of things."
"Well, you would have thought you could've gotten more than a turkey for a Christmas bonus. I remember last year, I got a more than $2 million. This year – a turkey."
"Some guys didn't even get that."
"Where are you living now? I heard you moved?"
"Yeah, we moved in with my wife's mother. We had to give up our apartment."
"What, that place overlooking the park on the West Side? What'd you do with your last year's bonus… didn't you pay for the place?"
"No… I took out a mortgage and put my bonus into Qualcom. It did so well, I remortgaged at 125% and leveraged up."
"Jeez… you must be hurting."
"Nah… it's the bank that's really hurting."
"I'll tell you who's really hurting, one of my customers in Baltimore. The guy just wouldn't take no for an answer. He bought the dips. Ha. Ha. Each time the big techs went down, the guy bought more. The guy died and the banker went to his place – took everything. Even the sheets off the bed."
Ebenezer couldn't believe his ears.
"What has happened?" he asked the spirit.
The phantom of Christmas Future made no response. Instead, he stood erect, pointed his finger… and in an instant the two were standing once again at the little window in East Baltimore.
"Our time is short," said the spirit.
The two gazed in the window. The scene was not the boisterous happy one they had seen earlier. Instead, Bob and his family sat still, quiet – as if a dark shadow had passed over them and the fire in their hearth had gone out forever.
There, in the corner was a crutch, partially hidden by a Christmas tree. The tree, though dressed for the season, failed to tilt the scales toward the gaiety it implied.
Ebenezer noticed something missing.
"Why, where's little Tim," he asked, dreading the answer.
"Tim is no more," said the phantom.
"I have seen enough," said Ebenezer. "No more shadows. I understand the lesson you are trying to teach. I am not so dull than I cannot grasp your point. I acknowledge it. Some losses are real… and more important than money. I will send Bob and his family a sympathy card."
"Come…" said the spirit. "Your lessons are not complete."
A second later Ebenezer recoiled in terror. They were in a bedroom, stripped of its curtains, sheets, even the pictures were off the walls, leaving light patches of wallpaper where once hung Ebenezer's collection of great artists works of the mid 20th century. The Pollacks, the Miros, the Warhols – he hated every one of them… but they were great investments. More than once, he muttered to himself, "They ought to pay me to own these things.." But what had become of them?
And the figure on the bed, the corpse, it was covered only by a large, plastic garbage bag, so carelessly laid on that even a gentle breeze would have left the body naked, exposed to the world as though a ghastly piece of art in a modern exhibition.
Ebenezer shuddered.
Oh cold, cold, rigid, dreadful Death, set up thine altar here, and dress it with such terrors as thou hast at thy command…
Strike, shadow, strike… so that we may see his good deeds flow from the wound.
No voice pronounced these words. But Ebenezer heard them anyway.
And then, a moment later, they were in some other place. It was a cemetery.
"We don't need to come here," said Ebenezer. I know whose tombstone you will show me. But before we look, answer me this. Are these shadows of the thing that Will be, or are they shadows of things that May be only."
The spirit was immovable. His finger beckoned to the tombstone.
Ebenezer moved forward. He looked. And there it was. His own name, chiseled in stone.
He fell to his knees, and reached for the spirit's hand. But spirits are elusive as profits in a bear market. Finding no hand to comfort him, he formed his own in prayer.
In agony, his voice trembled:
"I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year. I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future. The Spirits of all Three shall strive within me. I will not shut out the lessons that they teach. Oh, tell me I may sponge away the writing on this stone."
He blinked, and the spirit was gone. So was the graveyard. He was back in his bed.
The room was his own. The bed was his own. Best of all, the Time before him was him own. And his to make amends in!
Oh what a feeling of delight! To be alive! A new day! A new life! And to understand, for once, what really matters. How could he have been such a fool, for so many years, in so many ways? Well, it was too late to think about that…and no time for it either. This was a time for action. For something new. "A new era," he said to himself…
…and chuckled to himself. He couldn't remember the sound of his own chuckle. So he did it again. What an amusing sound. Chuckle. Chuckle. Ha! What fun.
New era? Yes, this was the real new era. A new era, indeed, with a new kind of wealth – the only kind that really mattered.
He was so excited, he fluttered out of bed as though a robin from its nest.
He rushed to turn on his computer.
"SELL!" His fingers rushed over the letters so fast, the computer could barely keep up.
"I don't know whether they're going up or down," he laughed to himself, "but I don't care anymore. I'm free of all this nonsense forever."
Opening his window, he saw a young boy on the street corner.
"Hey, boy," he shouted.
"Who are you calling boy?" came the resentful reply.
"Oh never mind," said Ebenezer. Times have changed. And he made up his mind to change with them.
"Oh, my, the markets are closed today," said Ebenezer to himself. "It's Christmas. Sell? To whom! No one will be buying or selling stocks today. How wonderful. Everything is wonderful now.
Bubble, schmubble. I'm going to go see my old friend Bob.
"And get that kid of his properly checked out at Johns Hopkins. I think Itec may have a new drug that can help him."
"Hmmm… I should probably buy some stock in Itec. Great company. And it's been knocked down 50% since last year. Buy the dips! This could be a big winner when the techs come back…I could make a fortune on this one.. But who cares! This is a new era…"
I confess, dear reader, that I do not know if the story is true. I just know that it ought to be true, even if it is not.
And I know how it ends too. With these immortal lines from dear Tiny Tim, saved by new technology from Itec:
Merry Christmas. And God bless Us, Every One!
Your friend and faithful servant,

Very nice collection.. Really like the "uncut stand proofs"
thanks Cook, im very proud of my Stands!
my CD early readers grab bag came in, i think i finally caught a rare ARC from CD? never seen this one before how cool is this?
Nice Stand collection and Flight or Fright.
Congratulations and very happy for you as well, Hans! It is a beautiful proof!
Too bad about that big hole in the cover though.
That is cool, Hans! Congrats!
of all the Bachman books Thinner is the most under rated, Thinner is my second favorite, after the Long Walk. its a dark nasty thriller rivaling Pet Sematary in it's unrelenting horror and loss. So I am always snapping up cheap copies to gift to friends, when a copy arrived today i was surprised to find out it is the ABA Thinner ARC, and not only that, it is in almost perfect condition and also includes a letter from the publisher! I do not know how many Thinner ARCs are out there? but i find them regularly enough, but most are dog eared, well read copies, It is hard to find them so pristine, and of course, a LETTER! winner winner pie after dinner!
this one is so cherry compared to my old one, plus now i have the publishers letter and mail back form and bookmark.
I don't think I've seen that PET SEMATARY bookmark before.
Some nice ARC's there. The Pet Sematary and The Wind through the key hole is some good stuff.
Ahhhhhh! I want that THE OUTSIDER proof!
I mean...GREAT THE OUTSIDER proof!
Nice, Hans! You have Steve on the Outside looking in.

We're back in the studio again.
The time has come to start wrapping this thing up. With about 45 minutes of material ready to record, and another 10-12 minutes still in development, we're getting pretty close to done. Add to that one cover song (still to be determined) and that gives us just about 60 minutes.
This past weekend Bill got most of the drum tracks completed for the existing material. Brian has begun laying down keyboards for those same tracks.
If all goes well, we may be looking at an album release in late summer. Keep your fingers crossed!


HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) - Pennsylvania's governor is moving to consolidate parts of the state's prison and parole systems in hopes of saving money by eliminating duplicated functions.
Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf announced Thursday that the Corrections Department and the Board of Probation and Parole will sign a memorandum of understanding that will outline their combined operations.
The two entities will remain separate but share employees, land, facilities and equipment.
There will be a single line of command for parole supervision and other services that relate to inmates re-entering society after serving their sentences.
The agencies will share business offices, internal affairs, investigative offices and public relations operations.
Corrections Secretary John Wetzel says the changes will improve record keeping, training and communications as well as the "handoff" of inmates to community parole agents and supervisors.


One of the most difficult books to find about Free Will Baptists was co-authored by G.W. Million and G.A. Barrett titled Brief History of the Liberal Baptist People. The 351-page book was published in 1911.
The next association was held right in one of the Campbellite strongholds. The members of the Campbellite Church carried their Bible in their pockets and challenged every one of the delegates that they thought bore a resemblance to the tree in summer time to an argument.
The Campbellites even went so far as to go into the altar with their Bible open in their hands to convince the penitents that they were wrong. They also persisted in stating with the penitents to give advice until they were removed by the pure physical strength and informed that when needed they would be called upon. This advice caused the zeal of the followers of Campbell to suddenly abate to a surprising extent.

Q: Flutter Checkbox background The main problem of Checkbox widget is that it has transparent background, and the way it takes the space is around checkbox itself, so even if you managed to wrap it with container it will change the space around checkbox also.
I'm looking for a best non-package solution if there is any, because making it like 'two pictures changing' with no animation feels weird.
To be more clear I'm adding code with wrapping it with Container, I want green color only inside checkbox
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
  return Container(
    color: Colors.green,
    child: Checkbox(
      value: false,
      fillColor: MaterialStateProperty.all(Colors.white),
      onChanged: (value) {},
    ),
  );
}

I want make it inside color white or dark green for example.

Another example from Figma

A: you have to way to change checkColor
first used checkColor and fillColor property
Checkbox(
          value: isCheck,
          checkColor: Colors.green, // color of tick Mark
          fillColor: MaterialStateProperty.all(Colors.red),
          onChanged: (value) {
            setState(() {
              isCheck = value!;
            });
          },
        ),

Second used checkColor and fillColor property

Checkbox(
          value: isCheck,
          checkColor: Colors.green, // color of tick Mark
          activeColor: Colors.red,
          onChanged: (value) {
            setState(() {
              isCheck = value!;
            });
          },
        ),

the difference between fill Color and active color than fill Color is change unselect border color

Is "Boy Meets World" Star Ben Savage Engaged?
The actor posted a photo with his girlfriend, Tessa Angermeier, who was wearing a diamond on that finger.
Ben Savage rose to fame while starring as Cory Matthews on the ABC sitcom Boy Meets World, which first aired in 1993. His performance on the show was so noteworthy that he received multiple nominations for the Young Artist Awards and YoungStar Awards. Now, the actor seems to be celebrating a different kind of success. On Wednesday, January 11, 2023, Savage seemingly announced that he and girlfriend Tessa Angermeier are engaged. "The best is yet to come," he writes on Instagram. What sparked the engagement speculation? The post includes a photo of the duo smiling in front of a lake in Owensville, Indiana, and Angermeier is shown sporting a diamond ring on her left ring finger.
Even though the former child actor didn't directly state that he had proposed, friends and family shared congratulatory messages in the comments section. Danica McKeller, who starred in The Wonder Years with the actor's brother, Fred Savage, writes, "Congratulations!! 😍😍😍." Fellow actress Arielle Kebbel comments, "❤❤❤." "Congrats!!!!!! 🍾," Emmy-winning correspondent and producer Katie Krause Mork shares.
13 Unique Celebrity Engagement Rings That Make a Statement
Although the couple hasn't specified exactly when they started seeing one another, their first social media appearance dates back to October of 2018. For the most part, Savage has kept his personal life under wraps, but he has posted more about his relationship with Angermeier recently.
This past December, Savage shared a glimpse into his relationship with his girlfriend and how they celebrated the holidays. On December 29, 2022, Savage shared a photo of himself and his girlfriend enjoying the festivities at Kant Brewing Co. in Fort Branch, Indiana. "At the brewery 🍻," he captioned the image. A few days earlier, he posted another snap in honor of the holiday season, with the duo all dressed up in Los Angeles, California. "Hope you had the hap hap happiest Christmas," he wrote. The actor also posted on December 13, 2022 an image of the couple in front of a car with the caption "Tis the season."
After starring on Boy Meets World, which lasted for seven seasons, the star reprised his role 14 years later in the spinoff, Girl Meets World. Savage's former co-stars, Danielle Fishel, Rider Strong, and Will Friedle, have a rewatch podcast called Pod Meets World. The group told Us Weekly that they've been talking about the idea since 2019. At first, Savage was a part of the project, but he ultimately passed on the idea. "At the end of our conversations, Ben said, 'I just don't think it's for me,'" they reflect. "So, we're respecting his decisions, and if he eventually wants to come on, we'll leave that door open."

The book examines the economics and mythologies of today's global artworld. It unmasks the complex web of relationships that now exist among high-profile curators, collectors, museum trustees and corporate sponsors, and the historic and ongoing complicity between the art and money markets. Who Runs the Artworld examines alternative models being deployed by curators and artists influenced by the 2008 global financial crisis and the international socio-political Occupy movement, with a particular focus on a renewed activism by artists. This activism is coupled with an institutional and social critique led by groups such as Liberate Tate, the Precarious Workers Brigade and Strike Debt. Who Runs the Artworld: Money, Power and Ethics brings together a diverse range of thinkers who draw on the disciplines of art theory, social sciences and cultural economics, and curatorship and the lived experience of artists. The contributors to this book are, in their respective contexts, working at the forefront of these compelling issues.
