Sounds italian but actually I made it up. “Pertinax” was an obscure Roman emperor (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pertinax). Looking for a unique handle that I could use with all accounts, I took his name and “romanticized” it.
Regarding the Loring property and the other one, my 403B is so devastated that I am now considering becoming a landlord if I could find something in a neighborhood I like (N PB, Bay Park, Old Town, Little Italy and environs, “West Park” etc.) if the property “penciled out.” Some extra bucks in semi-retirement is sounding pretty good.
