The Monday Morning Memo

This isn't me.
It's my grandfather (on my mother's side) in 1941.
He was the host of the Miss America Pageant
from 1941 to 1962. You've heard of Bob Barker, right?
Grandad was the original. The other one, the game show guy,
was just a bad imitation. By the way, Rosemary LaPlanche,
the second from the left,
Miss California, went on to win
the contest that year. She served as one of the most popular
Miss Americas in the history of the event. My grandfather,
as you would expect, was the most popular host ever.

Random Quote:

“As societies become wealthier and more educated, the reliance on a super-being and church attendance goes down but they still look for idols. Into that void steps technology leaders because technology is the closest thing we have to magic. Our new Jesus Christ was Steve Jobs, and now Elon Musk has taken on that mantle.”

- Prof. Scott Galloway, when interviewed by Christiane Amanpour
