It seems rather blatant to me that to write a blog with such fool hearted rightousness about someone you know only from slanted articles in the media, you would need to be a rather impressive failure in your own right. I'm directing this blog, in general, to the other blog writers who so obviously share a similar perspective in life. To judge and critique comfortably from you lazy boy, beer in hand, with venomous anger, and clear jealousy in your voice you would need to have a clear understanding of failure, which i do not doubt, all do. Or you could really look at the facts. At 67 years old Malcolm Bricklin has more drive and ambition then the entire blood line of all these blog writers familys' combined, and he has the benefit of all of his failures(selling 160,000 yugos, and then the company for 20 million), and successes(starting a multi-billion dollar car company, Subaru) to build upon. To assume once you've failed, you'll forever fail, would be to dismiss every single great accomplishment and risk taker the world has ever known. It's inane, and embarrasing to think like that. What you are clearly doing is projecting your own pathetic failures, and by failures in this instance, i mean your complete lack of initiative, your fear of failure, your baby testicles preventing you from doing anything noteworthy for your entire life. I have the good fortune to be Malcolm's son who has documented over 1000 hours of Malcolm traveling the world and securing a contract with the premiere chinese automaker, and raising 200 million dollars, and haveing a good time while he did it. There is, however, one very positive note to this blog, and that is, i obviously have an audience for my movie about Malcolm. As much you might like to think you wont be attending. You will. Even if you have to drive a yugo to get there, you wouldn't miss it for the world. That much is true.
