89. I like frumpy, too.

May 2015

The founder of my former company -- PhD physicist who fostered employee-ownership and entrepreneurship -- was known for wearing white socks with black shoes and carrying his lunch to work in a brown paper bag. Annual revenue when he retired was nearly $7 billion. It was a great place to work.

I haven't watched Hillary's commercial, but will get around to it eventually. She and Bill have been in my life since the early nineties and quite frankly, I'm sick of them both and their "New Democrat" ways.

I just saw a The Hill piece suggesting the 2016 presidential election could come with a $5 billion price tag. That is OBSCENE. All the more reason I want Bernie with his wild hair and bad suits to beat the current front-runner. I'm fucking sick of slick.
