Lemon Squeezers
Feel-good stories from John McCain, Dave Eggers, and Carlos Santana.
If, as President Calvin Coolidge
is reputed to have quipped, "the
business of America is business"
— and after seeing Silent Cal
eerily anticipate the Village
People by famously modeling an
Indian war bonnet and less
famously modeling the leather
guy's chaps, we should just
concede the point — then one of
the premier strengths of
American entrepreneurs is their
ability to make lemonade when
life gives them lemons.
