Bill Gates

Today was his last day at work and it's weird to think of him as an Edison.
He changed the way I talk, write, read, work, flirt, buy, watch movies, listen to music, photograph, pay bills and pretty much live.
Now he is out to continue having an impact on many others who are not so fortunate.
Thank you for showing me that you should still come to work, even after having Billions, and thank you for my job and for funding my brother's project to end hunger in underdeveloped countries through sustainable agriculture.
You shall be missed and expected at the Company Meetings at Safeco Field.
Oh and sorry for grabbing all those flashy Visual Studio pens at the product fair in 2002 (I know you saw me grabbing more than my share of those, you were standing right behind me) I told my mom and she wasn't very proud. She liked the pen though, those were kewl.
Word.

Pablo, its great to see that you were there at the founding of the company!! :)

Man.. come to think of it. Uncle Bill has provided me the longest job in my professional career. I'm glad that I've had the chance to be part of Microsoft for damn near 10 years. I guess I just take it for granted that I'm there with the Smartest and Brightest people in the world. Its really weird to think of it that way. Damn..:)

You are so right about the way he has changed the way we talk, etc. And heck with the pens, as long as your mom liked it...that's what matters :)
