...Tindell's Container Store has the storage-and-organization category it invented pretty much to itself. And lately, ceos Mackey and Tindell have reconnected--partly to bask in the shared joys of being rich former slackers ("You have a Frisbee golf course on your ranch too?!?") but mainly to discuss the approach they say has enabled their success.

"I hope Senator Lieberman will focus on the former and say what he wants to about Senator McCain and why he's for him as opposed to attacking our nominee."
