BARGAIN HARLEYS WERE TO BE HAD IN LAS VEGAS!
L.E. attended Panevino last Saturday for a doctoral graduation celebration.
First bloom of this season on L.E.'s Mexican Bird of Paradise which plant nearly died after last winter's frost!L.E. Fant’s intrepid technical correspondent and Internet Technology Guru attended the sale and reports:
"The police bikes most with around 40,000 miles sold for $7-7,500." Both he and L.E. conclude that this was indeed a reasonable price for such machines. L.E. expected that they would sell for $8-10,000.
L.E.’s correspondent is now in competition with Ben Bridge and all other Las Vegas jewelers as he purchased hundreds of brand name watches (Victorinox, Fossil, Bulova, Gucci, etc.), all in good condition which were county held lost property. He will make these available to bargain hunters shortly-so watch E Bay! (intentional pun).
DINNER AT PANEVINO IN CELEBRATION OF DOCTORAL GRADUATION:
L.E. Fant and wife were delighted to be invited to the graduation celebration dinner of a remarkable young lady who graduated from our Boyd School of Law.
Her academic achievement is such that she was sought out and offered a position with a very prestigious law firm where she will likely practice “corporate” law. Of course L.E. was delighted to hear this as he believes that there can be no losers in such contests as activities of both sides (as corporations and likely evil) should be curtailed.
[I hope that we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations, which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country.- Thomas Jefferson
I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country . . . corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed.- Abraham Lincoln].
The dinner was held at the exclusive Panevino restaurant and hosted by the graduate's mother.
L.E. Fant enjoyed a civilized pre-dinner Bombay Sapphire Martini (with olives) followed by a lightly dressed salad and then his favorite Margharita Pizza (much larger than anticipated and he was only capable of consuming 50% or so of it) with a glass of red. The party ended around 9:30 as the graduate’s mother and a cousin needed to prepare for an early departure from our airport.
L.E. believed (due to a television so-called news report) that the party should have be able to view downtown fireworks during the dinner and all eagerly anticipated the event. However, no such display was evident,to L.E.'s chagrin.
YET AGAIN-COW PROBLEMS?
L.E. was provided, by a trusted friend, documentation regarding intrusions into cows by deviant aliens (or possibly genetic engineering perpetrated by our cow meat industry gone wrong asks L.E.?).
Look for this information and L.E.'s opinionated comment thereon very shortly.
ALSO: NEWS OF YET ANOTHER BEEF RECALL RELATED TO POSSIBLE E-COLI CONTAMINATION HAS REACHED L.E. FANT.
This despite assurances from a cow meat industry expert that we have "a safe" supply of wholesome cow meat available.
L.E. concludes that when eating a burger becomes analogous to playing "Russian Roulette" one may readily dispute such industry claims.
LAST WEEKEND's F.T.
Reports that oil is very close to $128 per barrel. Saudis agree to produce 300,000 more barrels per day. Nissan is to likely sell usable electric cat in U.S.
