— June 29th – Drive Your Corvette to Work Day (DIERSEN: Of course, I have never driven my 1972 Corvette to work. My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates always used my owning a Corvette against me. On the last Friday in June, a) I worked for IRS in its Harvey office in 1972, in its 63rd & Halsted office in Chicago in 1973, in its Joliet office in 1974, and in its Loop office in Chicago 1975-1979 and b) I worked for GAO in its Loop office in Chicago 1980-1997. I stored the car in my mother’s garage in Crete 1971-1984 and then at 915 Cove Court in Wheaton since 1984. It has only 5,081 miles on it. I have not started it since November 4, 2009. I plan on getting it back up and running for its 50th model year anniversary in 2022. My owning a Corvette since 1971 is a direct result of my 1969 Dodge Charge SE being stolen while I worked for IRS in its Loop office in 1971.)
