I remember an interview with Mark Cuban from about three years back. This was right after his profitable dot-com bender of an IPO (during those ecstacy-fun house party days). Cuban was jet-setting in full swing. In this interview he said something to the effect of, You know you've made it up when you start to fly without luggage........... We're driving to the airport now (with plenty of luggage) and I've dreamed the Family Christmas Gift of a Ski Vacation equivalent for the above quote: You know you've made it up when your ski pants are custom tailored, fantastically lined. I don't know anything about snow- this will be our first "cold" family vacay. Atlanta to Seattle (five hours?) and then northward to British Columbia.   ¶ Permalink 12/25/2003 04:50:00 PM
