    And after Shapiro pulled out his big Bill Ayers interview? Salon has no shame. IF only Cary Tennis could go.

    All of this kind of is lost on me, especially considering that 3 or 4 downtown banks have effectively terminated enough positions in the past month or two to equal every single journo position, from top to bottom, in like, this friggen country. And not every eliminated position was an iBanker douch. People at every level were axed. Go cry for me now, Argentina.

    @overunderover: the news in the elevator just told me that now citibank is thinking about selling all or part of its bank? craziness... maybe it's all part of the same process that just saw the 53k people get fired. i dunno.


    either which way, it ain't good.

    Oh god. Oh god. however will i know if it has become gauche to arrive at Il Barbieri in a German vehicle? Moreover will the soprano be affected by the faulty ventilation in the 2006 ford focus in which she arrived?


    only motor trend and opera digest, together, could answer me these questions...please please... consolidation, not shuttering.


    drink.

    @Artur Van Asinine: That's Soap>/i> Opera Digest, love. As in, you drive up in the Focus and as the mob moll alights, the car blows up. She escaped just in time to save her unborn baby, fertilized by her brother who she thinks is her boyfriend but is really the son of her father, who she's never met, but is really a gay mafioso who deals in stolen meth and coffee beans and is plugging her boyfriend/brother on the side because he doesn't know they're related and he reminds Daddy of his late wife.

    Gabriel, you forgot the drinking game. Every live blog needs a drinking game.


    For example: Drink every time a report contains the word "shutter," "consolidate" or "fold."

    @MisterHippity: Actually, I regret if I appear to making light of others' real pain (even on Gawker).


    For a lot of folks, the drinking game associated with this trend is probably pretty literal.
