So, what's Ross Perot up to these days?
A copy of the Magna Carta sold for the princely sum of $21.3 million yesterday.

The 13th century document, which curbed the power of the British monarchy and inspired the framers of the US Constitution, was bought by billionaire Carlyle Group co-founder David Rubenstein at Sotheby's New York.

The copy, one of only 17 in existence, was put up for auction by former independent presidential candidate Ross Perot, who will give the money to his charitable foundation.

will the charity be his 3rd go around?






















































(and yes, i know where the money's going, but that comes off kinda bland)
