Pepino, it looks like you could have your own auto show judging by the pics you posted recently. How many rides do you have?

Man, I miss the Auto Show. For several years in a row, while my wife was working for an AD firm buying media for car companies, we used to get free tickets every year to the "black tie" opening night of the auto show. It was awesome, all of Chicago's top restaurants catered the event, and you got free food, beer and wine all night, and all I had to do was rent a tux. It was expecially nice because it was never crowded. They once handed out a limited edition Hot Wheel car that I promptly sold on eBay for a nice profit!
