Milestones
Nine years ago (Labor Day weekend 1996), I purchased one of my all-time favorite cars: a 1998 BMW M5. Lupita and I were out to lunch at Portillo’s in Schaumburg and I decided to go across the street to Patrick BMW, since I had seen the M5 in an ad earlier in the weekend. A quick test drive and then one thing led to another…..
To top it off, the next day I started at InstallShield, which is where I made my professional home for the next almost nine years.
The M5 was eventually traded in for my 540 in February of 2000, InstallShield was acquired by Macrovision in July 2004, and I moved on in June 2005.
