A Profile in Excellence: From Pizza to Politics
Dennis Tran - worlds fastest pizza

company heritage. Apparently, they
have these annual competitions
where fast pizza making employees
from all over the world compete for
the title as “World’s Fastest Pizza
Maker.” I found myself strangely
moved by Mr. Tran’s victory, but not
just because I love both efficiency and
pizza. It was the very real victory he
enjoyed. People rushed to embrace
him and it looked like he might have
even shed a tear.In a world where you

it is refreshing to see
humans just celebrating excellence… In
whatever it is they do. In the teaching
of my faith, we are told to do everything
we do as if we are doing it in service of
Christ. There are a lot of theological reasons
for that, but those aren’t necessary for the
point to be made. We should all strive to do
everything with excellence. And, when
someone displays excellence, we should be
quick to celebrate with him or her (not
downplay their actions as less
than another’s because it doesn’t seem
“important” or because later activities
undid their work) I find it exhilarating to
watch my fellow humans celebrate
accomplishment, even if I don’t totally “get”
what they are accomplishing. It is the shear

watch my fellow humans celebrate

what they are accomplishing. It is the shear
impossibility of the moment and the raw
human emotion that displays which draws
me in. It is addictive and I
find myself
seeking it out. We watch a lot go on
in public policy everyday that we don’t stop
and acknowledge as moments of excellence.
I, on the other hand, sit in
awe. One of my
greatest blessings is the ability to be right
there, in
that moment, and milk it for every
drop of victory there is. It is what
gets me
by. And, right now, I am watching a show
of excellence unfold
in the state of
Wisconsin. Governor Scott
Walker and the Republicans in their State
Senate and
Assembly are bravely taking a
stand. It moves me to watch as various
members of the body stand in front of a
roaring angry mob with nothing
but a
microphone and a little earpiece to connect
them to the national
news interviews while
they absolutely NAIL their interviews. It
moves
me to see a brand new Governor
paraded through a series of interviews
and
press conferences and not be shaken from
his resolve that this must
be done for the
future of the state he loves. He is calm, he
is articulate, and dare I say… he’s
more presidential than our own
President.
Governor Walker nails the interviews.
Everytime. And THAT
is excellence. Next
year, someone else may beat Dennis
Tran’s world pizza making
record. But, he
deserves the credit for
doing whatever it is you do
with excellence
and commitment.
Similarly, the forces that gain their strength
Similarly, the forces that gain their strength
from a well-funded
Democratic party
through union dues may
someday undo what is being
fought so
valiantly for in Wisconsin. But, history will
forever reserve
a spot for the
memory of the excellence being exhibited
there right now
by Governor Walker, Senate
Leader Scott Fitzgerald,
Speaker Jeff
Fitzgerald, and a whole host of
other Republican legislators who have
risen
to challenge and are
truly working with excellence.
