I got Benjamin Harrison:
Quote:
Known as the “human iceberg,” Harrison was stiff and formal in dealing with people. He disliked small talk. He could not tolerate inefficiency or incompetence in subordinates. He tackled problems through mastery of detail. Although he lacked both charisma and the common touch, he was widely respected for his intelligence, honesty, attention to duty, and diligence. “Integrity formed the backbone of Harrison’s character,” according to biographer Harry J. Sievers. “His active intellect firmly backed by moral courage, he was regarded as a bulwark of political decency.” He was among the best extemporaneous speakers of his day.
Well, anyone from Minnesota is a human iceberg but it explains why I left a co-driver and his bag at a truckstop (WITH fare home to Ft. Scott) without a word...When he refused to clean (his turn) the layer of horrific Mayflies off the entire front of the Freightliner in Arkansas. Refusal of a direct order related to "the duties of a truckman". My subsequent career as an home-loan appraiser and ATM bank guard does require some moral fiber and attention 2 duty I suppose: I turned down many bribes from desperate homeowners...and I haven't shot anybody...yet. Out of 'political decency' I'm not even bothering to vote this election for either the professional bankrupt or the liar: The 'Evita' of Bill's Juan (Perón)imho. God knows: I extemporize! but that gets me the only naked ladies in my life:
