Yes, it took years for Peloski to fulfill her dream, but the day has arrived, she's the one we've been waiting for. Only vast experience in political ambition could provide us with so selfless and special a CEO. Praise Peloski! She's saving the planet!

HYSTERICAL! This is a really funny bit of satirical doggerel. Thanks for making mincemeat out of Pelosi, Mr. Kimball. By the way, did anyone catch her in her scarlet full-body-wrap-cape-dress outfit a week ago? I saw 10secs of Madame Speaker approaching some marble steps then another 30secs of her at the House lectern giving one of her nasty tongue lashings on Fox. Oy Vey! These people parody themselves so perfectly it almost isn't necessary to take up the pen to skewer them. Hilarius says… HYSTERICAL! This is a really funny bit of satirical doggerel.

Corporations that strictly count on growth aren't being realistic about prospects of market changes, technological improvements, and consumer trends. In business, you can only REACT to what happens; it's very rare that someone gets in FRONT of, or STARTS a trend. Corporatism being to a vast degree an inbred form of tribalism; I always remain unsurprised that corporations are held underwater for 5 seconds; and already feel like they are drowning: http://mediacondom.com/?p=172 As a corporation, you are responsible for saving cash to prepare for rainy years like this one and the coming ones.
