side note:
I saw Billy and his Aussie sidekick boarding a plane in Tampa a few years back, not long before Billy passed ... but I was way behind them in line.
Once we landed in Houston, I was heading to my next gate when I saw them in line at the food court.
I wandered over and asked if they wouldn't mind if I got a picture with them since one of my sons loved to rag on their commercials.
Actually told them he was a big fan... but I didn't think the truth was really necessary at this point.
A guy near us said he'd take the picture ... so it's me in the middle with Billy and Sully flanking me and all of us doing the signature thumbs up.
Fast forward two weeks later...
As part of my interview process with HP, I had to to an hour long technical presentation.
Guess what was on my last slide?
