It took me over six months to get this!!! I have to share this with yall, because everyone around here just looks at me like I'm crazy. At least I know yall understand!

First all, you've got to know that I'm a big Howard Hughes buff. A few years ago, I did a research paper on him while at UNLV (I've promised this to a few you - as soon as I find it!) and discovered the fascinating life of Robert Maheu, his right-hand man during his Las Vegas years.

For the past six years, I've worked with his grandson, and about six months ago I purchased this book and gave it and a couple of chips to said grandson to get autographed for me.

As chance would have it, last week I purchased a home about six houses down from Mr. Maheu. So that explains what he wrote on the inside! Anyway, despite a horrible, personal tragedy last week in the Maheu family, this book and these chips were delivered to me today.

AWESOME!!!!

Thanks for letting me show off!!! I will be taking him up on his offer to give him a call!!
