Funny how often, later in life, a thought pops in your head: "Sure...I could write the check for it now. But do I really want it? Do I give a flying French kiss about the people who would think it's cool?". The answer is often a firm "no", on both counts. Whoa, Stevo...if you made it to the annual R Gruppe function...would you take notes of those there wearing gold rolexes? The only one of those I went to? Before I left, I told my friend, a retired bank V.P., that if he wore his gold rolex, I'd kick him out of the car before I turned the key. He showed up wearing an L.L. Bean "field watch". I laughed...even then, to him, it had to be the "correct cheap watch"....
