Virtually every year since 1918, the seats have been filled at home games. Fenway, in my view, is an extraordinary place to see a ball game. Now that my home is in Los Angeles, my inclination is to follow the exploits of the L.A. Dodgers if I pay attention to baseball at all. But for many years the Red Sox and their yearly ups and downs captured my interest. People may wonder why the Red Sox would continuously fill the seats, excite the crowds and instill hope in the minds of the fans year after year, without winning a World Series.
Imagination is an interesting thing.
I remember the first time I saw a Macintosh. It was cute. However, it did excite the imagination. Just as importantly, the emergence of Macintosh technology changed our expectations of a personal computer and raised our personal awareness of what we could do with one, especially if we owned a Mac. For several years I worked as the CFO of an entertainment organization that included among its various entities a successful independent record label and a motion picture distribution company.
