Lynn Swann and "Who is John Galt"
Posted by richrobinson 7 years, 12 months ago to The Gulch: General
Lynn Swann has lived in and been a customer of ours for many years now. If you are not a football fan Lynn Swann is a Hall of Fame wide receiver who played for the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 1970's. He recently accepted the Athletic Directors job at USC and will be moving to California. I asked if he was at a press conference and someone asked a question he didn't want to answer to just say, "Who is John Galt?". I explained why and he got a good laugh out of it. He said he will try and remember to say it. Hope he does. That would be cool.
I've got one for you that happened to me just 2 weeks ago. I received a call from a headhunter who saw my resume on Dice and when she announced who she works for, I burst out laughing over the phone, she said, she works for John Galt Staffing. I had to ask her to confirm and she said yes, what's so funny? I replied "nothing, but I've read Atlas Shrugged and think it's funny that to other people who have no idea about AR would ask 'who is John Galt'? She laughed too and confirmed that it does happen regularly. I laughed some more when she told me that.
I would guess.....hmmmm....about four letters long?
