I had lunch at Buck's today.  Believe it or not, it was my first time.  Despite countless lunches with VCs, I somehow never had lunch there.  Joining me were Bill Harris and Louie Gasparini, respectively Chairman and CTO of PassMark Security.  Although I didn't eat much as usual, I really enjoyed the lunch.

Bill, who was CEO of PayPal and Intuit, had great stories to tell.  The ability to tell stories well is a valuable skill I wish I had but don't.  All I can manage is react intelligently or project voice to forcefully pound in a message or two.  That's second class IMHO compared to the ability to paint and animate a picture with voice.

Anyhow, I'll have to try the artichoke next time.  Robert, remember that lunch you owe me?
