I just read an interesting post on reduser that took me by surprise. If you read this blog, you know I love Jim Jannard and the RED digital camera company. I don’t try to hide it.
But after I read this:
With your permission, I am going to take a couple of weeks off to get married somewhere in the South Pacific. Starting next Friday I’ll be gone and not checking up on you mooks. Jarred is fully empowered to “ride herd” if things get out of control in my absence.
My sweetie of several years has been very patient with this RED stuff. Now it is her turn. She is Czech and many of you met her at NAB last year. One of the main reasons I did RED was to prove to her that Oakley was not just “lucky”. She missed the action on that one and I guess I wanted to make her proud of something I was doing… not something I did. So if you are happy with RED… she deserves a lot of credit for motivating me to stay young and take another big swing for the fences. BTW… I adore her.
Jim
I realized how crazy it is what we men will do for our wives. I mean, isn’t it crazy that a billionaire has a desire to prove that his first fortune wasn’t a fluke? The guy has had a couple jets in his life already. It’s amazing to see what drives top achieving people, isn’t it?
This is just another reason to admire Jim and his new venture. And by the way, Jim, if you ever read this… I don’t think Oakley was luck.
