Knowing me, you might have figured this photo has been photo-shopped to make Ron Book look like a foolish despot. After 38 years of lobbying, I guess one might feel Kingly.

In fact, I didn’t photoshop this, Lobbyist Ron Book actually posed for the photo and that is his own prop: An Olympic torch. I found the picture in “Cravings of Aventura.” His 120 clients must be proud of their Ron, the lobbyist!
