Thanks for reading the site. Let’s be careful and not offend all the weather people out there. I should have read your comment earlier and found out about Martha Stewart and her relationship with Charles. Thanks for reading and commenting.

As an avid Microsoft fan, computer programmer and space aficionado…naturally I have been following the recent pursuits of billionaire Dr. Charles Simonyi, one of my greatest techie idols. For those of you who do not know, Charles Simonyi is one of the founding fathers of Microsoft and the author of Microsoft office. He lives on a 90 million dollar yacht, and seems to date the sexy lifestyle guru Martha Stewart.
Recently, Charles paid the Russian Space Agency a rumored 25 million dollars to become the world’s 5th space tourist. I was curious to watch the build up to this event. This is when I realized that Charles had made a serious blunder on his way to race to the stars. He hired an opportunistic, phony by the name of Susan Hutchinson to run his foundation and behave as his spokesperson. Why might you ask would I care?
Well, after listening to her for 2 seconds and seeing her picture, I became disappointed with the fact that Dr. Simonyi, a brilliant scientist, would higher a non-nerdy person to speak for him, I doubt this lady can even turn on a computer. Delving into her background, I uncovered that previously, she had been a local Seattle newscaster (I have a feeling she was a Weather Girl). She somehow found herself in politics recently and began exploring running for Senate. It seems that the voters of Washington State dismissed her in an instant and caller her out as an “Uninformed candidate” (another term for “Moron”).
If I have to listen to this women speak on his behalf again, I will stop following his journey. I can’t sit back and watch an unintelligent person who has no idea what a CD-ROM drive is, let alone space travel try to pretend that she has a clue.
Dr. Simonyi, stick with your own kind! Be Proud! Next time, higher a geek.
