    I thought our roster might be full after signing Carcus Mamby.

    I am starting to understand the joke y'all are making, and that version is pretty darned funny.

    I hope for <s>Carcus's</s> Marcus's sake that it doesn't catch on.

    I heard he had a really nice run when he was briefly in charge of the New York office of his firm a couple of years ago. Basically he pulled the entire branch out of a slump almost single-handedly. They still talk about how crazy that was.

    And he does have a degree from Harvard Business School. So, you have to believe he's pretty smart.

    But he is a strict Buddhist who is always quoting the Buddha around Toronto, and he has a good friend who is a farmer-CEO (wut???) in Iowa called Chandler Parsons and they have a Yoga/TaiChi routine they perform together before business meetings ;) :grin: :cool:

    Good find, DREAMsTeam: Chandler is the owner, no surprise, of Central Iowa Hops.

    I do hope Murrae is watching this important thread.
