...world companies at a low cost. These are run independently by student groups, so that we can gain some practical experience before going on to work for real companies. As CEO of “RH Junior Consultoria,” a company that provides human resources consultation, I got to coordinate employee selection processes for Nestlé and competency projects for Citigroup. The experience certainly taught me valuable real world skills...
Danz: We [the Harvard Computer Society] rewrite them from scratch every year. Last Saturday, we got 10 of us together to try to think of funny stuff. We try to have a good balance of geeky humor, general Harvard humor, and some things that mostly relate to real relationships.

It made him more accessible. Here was a fellow who got it on with faded lounge singers and then celebrated with a Double Quarter Pounder and fries at the local McDonald's. If that ain't pickup-truck nirvana, what is? Democrats haven't produced many such men of the people; they produce law-professor presidents, a theme Palin launched in Nashville that we will be hearing a lot more frequently...
