Betcha never saw this coming, Mr. Blair! The author of
1984 (the book, I mean, not the commercial) was born on this day in 1903. Orwell (Blair's pen name) wrote
1984 and
Animal Farm in the face of the Communist juggernaut, but, as I have said before, governments today are pikers in the control game compared to corporate behomoths.

Supposedly, the company is making noises about raises--all this recent publicity about their sausage-making might hurt the "brand."
