I have no fame, given that definition.
I certainly know who Leon Russell was. Huge respect.
I hold a one-of-a-kind position in state government which is mentioned a number of times in statute. I have singular and broad authority to make decisions which affect the distribution of a portion of several billion dollars in annual public spending. Many quarrels between management and labor, and between labor organizations, come to me and my signature settles them. I testify, often enough, at deposition and hearings. I am very well-known in a robust industry across the state. I'm tired of it. I just want to be a retired gentleman with some time on my hands for hobbies and whatever else I want to do. Fortunately, retirement is imminent.
