The Sunday School teacher talked too much in the way our grade school teacher used to when she told us about George Washington. Pleasant, pretty stories, but not true.
I went to Sunday School and liked the stories about Christ and the Christmas star. They were beautiful. They made you warm and happy to think about. But I didn't believe them.
I've helped create over 400 jobs in the worst economy of my lifetime. That's cool.
So there's nothing more provocative than taking a genre that everybody who's cool hates - and then making it cool.
