brother Colin

when colin moved to ny to work at morgan stanley, he shares a third bedroom on greenwich ave in the west village.

His roommates Nick and Jeff

Nick is perfect cuz he works at Goldman Sachs, a rival firm to morgan stanley
he and colin compete some, over at least good stuff like running.

jeff is the odd couple, smoking, whiskey on his desk, he works at a literary agency, a far fluffier enterprise than that of colin and nick.

I could not have asked for a more ideal crash pad spring of '96.

it is a bit like a frat, the three men don't clean anything until it reaches the point of dis-ease.
