    I will try to post an address of one of the stores where I've seen it. Maybe the travel agent or the bakery.

    Did you ever find that detail you were looking for? Maybe you can even take a picture of it and post it? After all, a picture is worth a 1000 words.

    Also, can we post close ups of the cbd facades?. it is that which we are examining here. just add to this post. It is where we are now. Our baseline. Someday in 60 years, someone might sell the picture on ebay. It is our default value, also.

    Here are some views:

    Corbi - I have a favor to ask: Can you have the boys at ABN AMRO come up with a new commercial and junk the one with the old dude putting sand in his lady's shoes? I watch Chicago Tonight almost every day that I don't go to one of these meetings, and it is really getting tiring to see the same thing over and over again. I know that you carry a lot of weight down there - no pun intended - and hope you can take care of this. Preferably by tomorrow. Thank you.

    I'll do my best but I assume you'll tolerate them if the alternative is to pull their funding for such a worthy cause as WTTW. You shouldn't be so quick to dismiss those commercials. I think there is a lot of wisdom in that sage old gentleman who realizes when it is time to move on to "warmer" pastures. Florida is nice this time of year and I am sure there is plenty of architecture for you to criticize down there. Perhaps you can seize upon your entrepenurial spirit and open up that Bikini Bocci Ball establishment. Perhaps you and Lonnie can partner up.

    Corbi - when you and your collagues are next relaxing from th pressures of the financial world in some sports bar and you see Bikini Bocce playing in HDTV on one of the screens I advise you to bet on Big Ludmilla, she's the blond captain of the Ukrainian Rollers. The dark horse is the little brunette in the green suit from the Cuban Wonders. Lonnie does all the camera work - he's devoted to BB. Enjoy.
