I've heard this for the first time a couple of years ago, seems like the friendship is still going strong.
I wonder how DeNiro' will be as Madoff. Was a good read, thanks for posting Willy..

It's a new morning in America... fresh, vital. The old cynicism is gone. We have faith in our leaders. We're optimistic as to what becomes of it all. It really boils down to our ability to accept. We don't need pessimism. There are no limits.
