And So It Begins

Posted by gw in Found

Does this man look happy about it?   I’m not seeing it.  However, I would like to point out that he’s ready to pounce on the old school correspondence with a blast from his ready-to-roll dual-pen launch pad.  (I used to have one of those as a kid.  My grandpa always had a closet full of them with little gold plaques that read things like, “Pittsburgh Business Services — Where it’s our business to service your business!”)

Full ash try too.  Ah, the good old days, when every meeting started with a firm shake and the admonition: “The bar’s over there, help yourself!”

That all changed back at the start of the ’80s.  This broadcast blames it all on the MBAs.  It might be on to something; certainly insightful and with cool Australian accents, just like Bon Scott & Hugh Jackman.

    where I saw it, it was was described as being “from the dawn of time.” I figure that’s pretty close.
