spotted in hotel lobby in Mexico... lovely two-volume boxed set of portraits and profiles of past Nobel laureates... looking all over but can't seem to find companion collection of #FIFA heroes - perhaps hotel has yet to order...

Just received this aggressive, tone-deaf-ish email, with the following subject heading: "We've tried to be patient with you..."
