Marty Returns!

Marty (pictured above) - a DU Bookstore colleague - returned to the Bookstore this morning after a business conference in Oakbrook, Illinois and told me he spent his one free night at nearby Yorktown Shopping Center.  This was the mall where I managed a Waldenbooks for 5 years, from 1976 until 1981.  I was just out of college at the time, and living the good life out in the western suburbs of Chicago.  Although I'm pretty sure I mentioned Yorktown to Marty before he left, he didn't remember, and had no idea of my connection to the place.  I guess that means they took down the 30 by 50 foot portrait of me that used to hang in the center court.  How quickly they forget.
