I just got back at 10 pm tonight...... from my trip to chicago......... what an incredibly grinding schedule... up at 5:40 AM ..... out of the Hilton at 7:30 after having a business meeting at breakfast every day (except last Sunday....... out all day at meetings.....and also taking a crash course on Insurance...... including what the Affordable Health care act is going to mean...... meetings at night..... not in bed until 12 or 1 am and then back up at 5:40..... caught a really bad case of the Chicago flu....... and an inner ear infection....... But got a chance to talk to folks from CHI town and also people who flew in from all over the country. The $/Yen hit 100 today.... sometimes they are just giving money away in the Financial Markets..... The Central Banks are certainly doing giving money away..... more to follow..... I am amazed in talking with people about how little they know about history.....what has transpired in the last 50 years........ Dr. Benjamin Carson is absolutely correct about the dumbing down of our general education system...... today there is so much info that all too many people do not know how to prioritize it..... At the top tier colleges we have brillant minds coming out as well as the hotbeds of tech innovation. ..... I saw so much.... bed time ..... John.

Hi Rogue...... As circumstances evolve.... I am going back to Chicago tomorrow... May 19th.... leaving on a 3:30 flight out of George Bush InterContinental Airport...heading into O'Hare.. I have a relatively busy week....hopefully not as bad as the 2 weeks I spent in CHI town From April 28th to May 10th...... Maybe we could get together at some point during the week..... I wouldn't mind going over to a Blues spot One night.... Friday evening would quite possibly make sense.... Since the Sears Tower is now the Willis tower.... we could always take the 1962 Red 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO and spin around town..... ala Ferris Bueller... on his day off.... -vbg- John J Pitera PS: Anyone else in or traveling in the Chicago area... let's hook up... an impromptu..... SI Piffer reunion...in the Windy city ;-) I will be staying Near the AON Insurance building....... ACE also has Some of their US operations Near by.... AON being a bulge bracket UK Insurance/Reinsurance company.....and ACE -- a $30 billion Market Cap. Swiss Based Insurance/Reinsurance Firm. ----------------- 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO is the most expensive car ever sold Posted June 10, 2012 - 09:22 by Shane McGlaun Just uttering the name Ferrari sounds expensive, as any exotic Italian car to roll off the assembly line in Maranello will cost you a pretty penny. However, out of all the vehicles Ferrari has ever produced, many consider the GTO (1962-1964) to be the most coveted of all, as only 39 were ever manufactured. tgdaily.com
