Scene

'''>>> He checked his watch. It was twenty minutes past five in the afternoon. His stomach grumbled and he was in the process of putting on his coat and wondering  where in hell he was going to eat dinner when Michael 'Mikey' Brown came over to him, pulling a patched syntho leather coat over his bony shoulders, Mikey was  a few years younger than Bruce, wore loud T-shirts with baggy sweatpants, and was the Art Scene and music section guy of the NYT. His hair twirled in dozens of short braids that stood on end, someone once described Mikey's hair style with someone experimenting with a life power outlet. This style of hair was popular with hip hop, a cultural and musical expression that went out of style long before the war, but remained somewhat relevant with the colored youth of the inner cities; where Mikey had grown up. Bruce never got over the fact that someone could write about music and pop life and get paid for it. Of course he kept that opinion for himself. he knew that the masses wanted to be entertained no matter the times or because of it.'''

Mikey was a good guy and one of the few people on the news foor who treated him normal.

"Some of us are going across the street to the Blue Thumb for a news floor meeting meeting."Mikey said, zipping his coat shut."Want to join us?"
 * "News floor meeting ? Isn't that just another excuse for getting drunk?" <<<
