I put "Who is John Galt" on the whiteboard sign outside of one entrance to my retail store. I wanted to see the reaction. Nobody asked me about it. I think I will leave it for a week. I will see how many people ask and if the reaction is positive or negative. I'll report back next week.

    I love this. My son wears one of his Who is John Galt ? T-shirts in my restaurant all the time. Just this week a customer called me over and asked, didn't your son have a reading problem growing up. I said, yes he did and still does to some extent, he has dyslexia, but he has even read Atlas Shrugged. Well, the customer said, I know, I saw his shirt :) That is a hard book for anyone to read ! So he then says, I have a hard back copy of AS and will give it to him, I don't want it anymore ???? I wasn't sure how to take that, but he is getting rid of all his books, has them on a kindle or something. So, it does spark conversation and an introduction to Atlas Shrugged is the goal :) Will be watching your results with great expectations :)

      Hey Kathy. do you have an opening for a short order cook? May want to pull a Hoyt Akston. Got experience, esp with breakfast. Worked almost a year 2200-0600 for an outfit called Sambos. Caught the weekend AMs when the drunks started rolling in. Two shifts. One from US and second from Mexico.

        Unfortunately, DE is becoming too anti business, pro parasite, so planning to leave. Think Texas is my future plan, a freer business state. May just find a place to put Akston's Diner.... So funny, there is a seafood place here called Sambo's, my competition :-)

          Well, if you're coming to Texas, can make some recommendations if you let me know what part of the state you're looking for, what size town. This is my state and I can you a little bit about it. PM, please.
