Way back when, Art Margolis was selling for the Daroff Brothers who owned Botany 500, they provided the suits that James Bond wore. Art had a good conract and only traveled by train to the major markets. Art liked my dad and even though my dad only bought 400 suits a year for his store, Art treated him like a major buyer.

So one year we take the train to Chicago and I'm 10 years old. Art treats us to lunch at the Palmer House in it's glory days. I order a cheeseburger and my mother daym near knocks me off the chair. Art says "if that boy wants a cheeseburger he's going to have a cheeseburger" and sends the waiter down the street to a hamburger stand. Paid a big tip for my burger that he didn't have to do.

Just hit me tonight about why I want the Jews to have their own homeland.
