Yes I've met the son of Yakob,
In a biblical sense almost , at the Bloomberg conf, as I handed him his brown bag of an apple and a sandwich.
Wherelse , the ceo of SLHO looked like that heart breaker kid with nasty yearn for bourbon and fast car with his slicked down hair and a cig hanging out of his smirking lips, in a Tennesse Williams novel...
Son of Yakob is a humble man, a no non sense man, in a very ordinary next door Sears house and garden dept manager kind of look in a ten year old twid jacket and a 5 dollar tie hanging over his generous middrift,a little short to cover it, but with a set of focused eyes, honest face and dont give me any BS attitute.
He was very focused that day and and knows that his stuff works,,,,
He's the guy who spent over 15 years in this company with one vision,,, looking out many cold nights to the snow capped Rockies in a half moon night, wondering where this co was going. He lived for this day,,,,
I dont think he will blow this,
I am betting with son of Yakob.
