This license seems to indicate that there are at least five other Amits in the state of Illinois. My name is losing it’s flair.

Up until the beginning of 2010, I could have counted all the Amits I knew on one hand. Today, I’d need two hands, two feet, and still have to borrow a couple more hands to count them. Yes, my name is not unique, but I had done such a great job of avoiding other Amits my entire life.

But no hard feelings towards “Amit 5”, I’d be more than happy to let you drive me around any time.

My first boat party in Chicago! Yeah I know I’ve lived here fore three years, but I just never got around to getting on a boat.

Trusha invited me out to the Leukemia Lymphoma Society’s annual boat party to celebrate the midpoint for the Man/Woman of the Year award. The people involved with this competition are amazing! All the candidates last year collectively raised $500,000 in a matter of months for LLS.

To support the cause, I went deep in to my closet to get my best tie and got on a boat. Luckily no sea sickness issues as the yacht was large enough for me. It was amazing to see everyone out to celebrate and support a great cause!
