I wish this guy would run again, just for all the wrong reasons.

That photo's first-rate--absolutely world-class.

Haha! I probably shared this story elsewhere, but last year I had a bunch of meetings in our Plano office, which was formerly Perot Systems. The entire office building doubles as a museum for all of Ross Perot's random knick knacks, nearly every square inch of the hallways is covered with some kind of memorabilia or other. In order to get around, folks gave me directions like turn left at the cow skull and then right at the civil war rifle. And then, as I was going from one meeting to another, who should I see, but Mr. Perot himself wandering around the halls!

Why is there a picture of Ray Orbison on this thread?

― Aimless, Monday, 1 October 2012 19:02 (thirteen years ago)

shouldn't the question be "Why isn't there a picture of Ray Orbison on every thread?"

Perot Museum is one of my recent clients, we are doing a massive "charitable" project for them.

― Moodles, Monday, 1 October 2012 19:13 (thirteen years ago)

Every time I drive by it I think I'll find the right angle where it doesn't look hideous, but, alas, that's never happened.

I hope it's a decent kid's museum though. The city needs one.

― EZ Snappin, Monday, 1 October 2012 19:15 (thirteen years ago)

"The building has a 54-foot continuous-flow escalator contained in a 150-foot glass-enclosed tube-like structure."

― pplains, Monday, 1 October 2012 20:08 (thirteen years ago)

It's pretty much everything I ever imagined a Perot Museum to look like. Maybe a few more Rube Goldberg elements like the escalator, but overall very satisfying A++++++.

Romney "is at the wrong place, at the wrong time, on the wrong side of history"

I just noticed that if you look at an electoral map really quickly, "Leans Romney" looks a lot like "LeAnn Rimes."

― clemenza, Monday, 1 October 2012 22:43 (thirteen years ago)

There's a lot of overlap in that Venn diagram.

Matthew Dowd insisted on one of the Sunday morning shows yesterday that "the natural equilibrium" for the race is about a two point differential. I guess we were at the "natural" stage of the race before we got to see Romney's performance as a candidate?
