For years the Vatican has been running its fingers thru
piles of gold coins and just busting out laughing
while their pedophile priests were abusing kids.
The older agencies that had formed in the 1970s and 1980s retreated out
of the spotlight and are now the major agencies working with mostly bestsellers,
while the baby agencies fought to find that piece
of gold in the slush from an unknown new writers, just as junior editors used to look through publishing house slush
piles thirty years earlier.
