Cutrone, Michaelson, Gallucci Dinner in Little Italy

I never thought I would actually say "Last night I had dinner with friends that I've know for Twenty Years" That was the case recently in May when John, Ed, Tom and myself met for dinner in Little Italy. John was my very first boss at Brother and while he left the company almost 20 years ago, we still keep in touch. Ed has left Brother for over 10 years and it seems like yesterday we were all working together creating some of the best memories I have of working at Brother over the past 25 years. Tom was the Typewriter Buyer at J.C. Penney when they were still headquartered in New York City. John and I actually sold JCP the first Brother personal fax machine that was then priced at $999.99 and it was considered a break through in price and technology. Today, a personal fax is less than $50. Yes indeed, times change but the night out with John, Ed and Tom reminds me of how great it is to keep in touch with great friends that help shape my life.
