Red Flag Reminder! Last Chance to Get Tickets!

[Parsad]

This is last call for tickets for our "Fairfax Financial Shareholder's Dinner".  If you are attending, tickets need to be purchased before midnight April 5th!  I will not be accepting the purchase of dinner tickets at the door, as I have to give a final number a few days earlier.  You will still be able to buy the $75 "Just Presentation" tickets at the door.  Cheers!

 

Details, including the menu and speakers, are below:
