Haiku Winner: JR!
Wow! 36 great entries last week-- and I loved them all. This one, though, told a story that spoke to me:
Statistics. You know
it's not good when your "grade" is
simply "Please See Me."
JR, a resident of DC, was most recently the lead pollster for the Romney campaign. His projections had Romney ahead by 5 points the day of the election, which turned out to be very... well, wrong. This shouldn't have been surprising,given his previous work as number-cruncher for Herman Cain.
Before all that, JR was well-known in the food n' beverage world as the guy who famously reversed the flavorings for Dr. Pepper and KFC somehow, leading to the worst-tasting soda ever.
