There were six Romeos present including Joe Pignatiello, Ed Descheytner, Mark Ryan, Steve Winter, Jim Terlizzi and Paul Girard.
We were all seated near the window as bright sun started to shine in. The waitress brought water and rolls and took drink orders which were margaritas and beer on draft.
We then placed out lunch order which included steak tips, knock worst special and Reuben sandwiches.
When the drinks arrived we all toasted a good and long life. Steve then said that when planning his 90th birthday, his family looked into booking the Cafe but found they wanted $150 just to set the table. They looked for another place.
Joe came ready to pay for our lunch date and pick up the tab with his stash of clam shells. It was a joke since Jim always says "It's only clam shells" when money is concerned. We all laughed and wanted some wampum.
The conversation continued and we talked about sports, politics and trips. Joe said about the Red Sox maybe next year. Patriots game was great with Brady's return.
Jim talked with Joe about his up coming trip. We then talked about free education and health insurance in Germany but income taxes are 50%.
Paul asked about Trump's Carry Tax. Ed explained when his son went for his MBA they used the business model from Paine Investments, Romney's company on how to pay taxes in your favor.
He said that lobbyists got federal government to invent the Carry Tax to help investment in new company's. This allowed Hedge fund investors to hide most of their income and only pay 15% taxes.
