but at a certain club in Austin, ten or more years ago, I was with the president of a company that I worked for. We were celebrating a mega million dollar order from a notorious cell phone manufacturer. The "key" players were with us, there must have been twenty guys or so.

When the night ended, the bill came, it was over twenty five feet long and totaled over $25,000.00

That was the first time myself or alot of the people around me had ever seen a platinum AMEX.

Funny now, but gawd, what excess!
