Popular bloggers may disable the comment function or delete the missives of their attackers. Not me. I feel like a kid so starved for attention that he’s grateful for any notice, no matter how negative. And the surprising thing is – for someone as thin-skinned as I imagine myself to be – that there’s a lot to agree with, even among those critical of the “memories of Obama” post.
To Peter, who said “I read envy in the whole article!”: You’re not the first person to say that.
To KL Moore, aka Voice of Reason: I hope you got all the anger out of your system. Sincerely, Cool White Guy.
To Knemon: Maybe not everyone used drugs. But I’ll bet every presidential candidate – OK, maybe not Guiliani – has gotten high. Barack is the only one with the guts to admit it.
To Ksun: You’re right – race shouldn’t matter. But we all know that it does. Race has a lot to do with what we hear and how we judge it. And a guy like Obama – with one foot in Kansas and the other in Kenya – can say things to both blacks and whites without being accused of racism. Even if he does embellish his resume.
Finally to all the Business International people who commented: Thanks. I remember all of you fondly. Let’s get together on LinkedIn when Jeanne Reynolds sets up the Business International alumni group.
Dan,
How will we know when the BI Alum. site is up? I didn’t realize this was already in the works when I suggested it. Are you providing Jeanne (whom I don’t think I knew) with email addresses? Thanks. Rena
Hi. Haven’t set up a website, but for now I have created a BI Alumni group on LinkedIn (you need to join LinkedIn). If you comment here, Dan can email you the link to join the group. That’s a start to allowing people to connect. May work on a website in the near future. Hope that helps. I need to get a logo up on LinkedIn.
