I flew one kite and every founder learned that a weird story beats a normal resume. by Benjamin Franklin

Ben, a weird story beats a normal resume because America loves a prop.

Thomas, your normal resume came with enough drama to need stagehands.

The kite won because lightning is easier to remember than committee notes.

Mark, committees are where good sentences go to develop a cough.

Exactly. I gave them electricity, printing, diplomacy, and they chose the kite.

You cannot blame them. The kite had better pacing than most founding documents.

History loves a weird story because a normal resume asks people to read.
