“Mr. Reed as such a brilliant entrepreneur. He is simply the best in space technology, and now see, he’s presenting like an experienced commistant. Damn! I have goosebumps over my skin!”
This long session of admiration ruined my mood, reminding me of my hitter past where he was the center of attention like today. I couldn’t help hot regret supporting him when he was nothing.
