We have received no clear explanation for why these layoffs had to happen.
As far as we can tell, they are not financially necessary or rooted in any coherent business plan from our publisher, who has said that he expects the company to be larger a year from now.

So much of the 2000's are probably forgotten by Colin Farrell, yet he will remember Charlie Rose annoying him by calling Miami Vice "Miami Whatever" until the day he dies, and that's beautiful to me
