Surprise of all surprises &#8230; like the Russians launching Sputnik, the discovery there is no Santa Claus or Easter Bunny this really shook my confidence in who we are&#8230;.it is one thing to have our research challenged by others but to be out partied by our neighbors? I couldn&#8217;t bear the thought and fled the building (only to discover the US lost in the world cup).<\/p>\n<p>But after many hours thinking about this and in my old and wiser years, instead of yelling I have decided to take this as a challenge so basic it is a challenge to who we are: we must out party the partiers&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>So I promise to use my power to neutralize the dark forces on the third floor that might not want to commit the financial resources to make us great again&#8230;.but who is with me? Who will lead instead of follow and help us create a party that is unmatched for summer supremacy?<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, please go up and enjoy their party while I shake my head at the Old Ship saloon and think about how great we  were&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.help!!!!!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have written many times over the years about how much I love my company &#8211; the people are one step from normal &#8211; a step in the right direction &#8211; anyway the following is an example of why I love them &#8211; this comes with permission from the founder of the company and he sent the message to the people who actually work in the San Francisco office &#8211; most of us work all&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-276","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-main"],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/s1kHSD-276","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.dangermond.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/276","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.dangermond.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.dangermond.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.dangermond.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.dangermond.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=276"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.dangermond.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/276\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.dangermond.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=276"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.dangermond.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=276"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.dangermond.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=276"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
