what a wiseguy. i didn't get even close to san jose of the mind last trip.
so i went to nyc and stayed at a nice hotel in mid-town overlooking the port authority parking lot on the roof which got covered with snow. it was only a couple of blocks to the superlocked up for presidents day but i meet my bud's wife at the frieght entrance where everone knew everyone but me.
she has since moved into the ins of art biz but she is still tight with these people. the jade specialist out of hong kong was everything a fantasy needs. 35 beautiful and totally knowlegeable. she said it was old but not worth the auction she was putting together. it was old and she liked the setting and the paperwork seemed in order.it could bring $8000 at auction or less. maybe 5 who knows or cares she says keep it. well thanks and out on the street.
lucky swa would change my flight to an earlier one to san diego because a blizzard was coming to chicago where i was due to change planes. the sun was going down when i hit san diego.
