I met Mr. Carell when I was in Los Angeles some years back, around the time Little Miss Sunshine came out. It was at a professional building...the kind with doctor and dentist offices. I had nothing particular that I wanted to say, other than a quick thanks for making enjoyable films. He was super gracious, down to earth, and we spent about 5 minutes talking about films we mutually liked. It was my only brush with stardom, but it made a very positive impression. He could have just nodded and walked briskly by, but he took the time to visit with a fan, and was super-nice and engaged.

He's more of a behind the scene kind of owner, the person who said he bought it to keep it open has it right. He has some signed stuff for sale in the store, stops in sometimes, and randomly calls the local radio station to chat and talk up the store. It's a really nice old general store, lots of cool local items and penny candy type stuff.

What is the most important thing for a company? Is it the cash flow? Is it the inventory? Nuh-uh.
It's the people. The people.
My proudest moment here was not when I increased profits by 17% or when I cut expenses without losing a single employee. No. It was a young Guatemalan guy. First job in the country; barely spoke English. He came to me, and said, "Mr. Scott, would you be the godfather of my child?"
Wow. Wow. Didn't work out in the end. We had to let him go. He sucked.
