Paulson on CSPAN

US Treasury secretary Paulson was on CSPAN yesterday. I couldn't help but notice his big 100-lap Timex Ironman worn with his suit.

I know some other powerful guys who wear some sort of Timex or whatever to show that they are regular guys. Some are really into fitness (blech!) and wear an Ironman, others can't read numbers so good and need an Easy Reader.

I just couldn't help but notice how dumb it looked with a suit, especially since it's a 100% Chinese product. I have one and it's a remarkably useful timepiece, but not with a suit.
