“Within us all there are wells of thought and dynamos of energy which are not suspected until emergencies arise.”

I had so much fun doing this house. The windows and shutters were my favorite part. I haven’t heard from Ellen yet. I hope she likes it.
About Thomas J. Watson
American
businessman Thomas J. Watson built IBM into a Fortune 500 company. He
was born in rural New York in 1874. He sold sewing machines, musical
instruments, and cash registers before becoming president of the Computing-Tabulating-Recording company,
which merged with IBM in 1924. His paternalistic business style was a
model for later Japanese management, and his motto, “THINK,” became his
company’s slogan. Under his leadership, IBM funded the first computers.
He died in 1956.
