An Interview with Tom Lord of Arch (O'ReillyNet)An Interview with Tom Lord of Arch (O'ReillyNet)Posted Sep 28, 2004 14:36 UTC (Tue) by lm (guest, #6402)In reply to: An Interview with Tom Lord of Arch (O'ReillyNet) by snitm Parent article: An Interview with Tom Lord of Arch (O'ReillyNet)
Some people have no sense of humor, I was joking. I have a wife and two kids and a VW Vanagon. The only car money I want is money to get a paint job for the van and a new engine.
If you think I'm in the SCM business for the money you are mistaken. Sure, I want money as much as the next guy but I've learned you don't need insane amounts of money to be happy. In fact, if your house is paid off, you can happily live the rest of your life on $3M or so. If you were careful and lived someplace cheaper you could do it on less. Buying a porsche != careful.
On the other hand, the mental image of sprinkling shavings while driving might bear some thought. I don't think a porsche is the answer, I think you'd want something like an old beat up yellow schoolbus. Then you bolt down the machines to the floor, open the back door, get the wife to drive, and the shavings will just naturally fly out the door into the porsche which is trying to pass us.
"A joke, son, I say, I say, I say, a joke. Are you listening to me, son?"
