More PIA/GATF Candidates --Cagle
H. Ross Perot: His presence placates those who feel this industry is in need of a financial booster shot. The former U.S. presidential candidate has never been at a loss for words, so if any association speaker bails out of an engagement at the last moment, Ross is our hoss. Sure, he's hard to take serious, but he has the Don Rickles snowballing comedic effect. Once he gets going, you can't stop laughing. "You sheetfed people are living a fool's paradise," he'd say. "Y'all will be broke in a year and end up selling those promotional pens that feature nudie girls whenever ya turn 'em upside down. Web, web offset, that's the ticket! So don't be a damn idiot! Get with the program! Only 10-year-olds want nudie pens. And ya know what? They ain't got a damn dime, either . . ."
