So...I'm sitting in the airport waiting for an 8:30AM Sunday morning flight to Wilmington, Delaware, so that tomorrow I can run a meeting I don't particularly want to run and only have to run because my boss (who was actually in Delaware) suddenly quit.

I suspect the meeting is going to be a waste of time and feel bad for the vendor who'll be there (not that I should, it is there job to have their time wasted in hopes of landing a giant contract) but I will get to schmooze with an honest-to-god billionaire. If noting else I guess I can assume his time is technically worth about $15,000/minute so I'm being quite profligate in wasting it.

On the plus side, if they don't make me hang out and network tomorrow evening I will go to a Wilmington Blue Rocks game (the Single A KC Royals affiliate). It is Billy Joel tribute night!

I have a lot to say about the Rand Paul controversy, both issues with what he said and how he said it, but also with how the media is distorting the conversation (was quite disappointed with Friday's Rachel Maddow show (though not the Wednesday interview with Paul that triggered it all). However, I've decided to spare all of you that.
