I wish you the best of luck, and that permitting will go smoothly. I hope you hit a monster producer with a long lifespan.

Fast forward 40 years

Brown runs again for CA Governor and promises he will not touch Prop 13 pointing to his Jarvis Foundation rating.

Brown is re-elected to the amazement of people who lived through his first reign. He also fires all the trigger school board members, replacing them with the Same Cronies, Including Bill Honig: In between meetings with legislative leader's Wednesday, Gov. Jerry Brown defended his appointment of Bill Honig. The former state school's chief convicted 18 years ago on conflict-of-interest charges, to the State Board of Education.

This man funneled hundreds of thousands into his wife's company.

and, like any slimy politician would, goes back on his promise the very first day:
