The theme of the nanowrimo cashcowbook is “no plot, no problem”. The majority of the books that PG reads do have plots. If he is going to imitate a role model, this poses problems. Or maybe issues, which is the new word for problem. Once, PG told a project manager in the office “ John, people don’t have problems anymore, they have issues” “ PG , I have an old fashioned job. I’ve got problems”.
This reminds PG of a story. It is about politics, elections, and people who just don’t get it. In 1992, PG was working in an architects office in downtown Atlanta. This is the same office mentioned above. Downtown was full of neat events, and a few not so neat ones.
During the 92 election, the Vice Presidential debate was held in Atlanta. There was a fundraiser starring Dan Quayle that afternoon at the Commerce Club, which was near the “fabulous” Healy Building, where the office was. When the Q man came in, there were some Tech kids imported to cheer him, along with snide comments about how Bill Clinton “didn’t inhale”. So, DQ and his people were ushered in, and PG went back about his business.
About an hour later, PG slipped out of the office to go get a bag of Fritos. A little newsstand, run by a friendly Korean, was the destination. As he crossed Walton Street , he saw the bulletproof limousine going north on Broad Street. PG waved at the potatoe man. He only used one finger.
