    He's out there trying to figure out how to securitize trees and bears into bonds, insure the bonds, advise his closest buddies to insure the insurance on the bonds, then somehow securitize THAT, and then burn down the forest and somehow walk away with hundreds of millions of dollars.

    "I do believe at the end of the day that the good guys do win. I do believe that."

    You know what Dick? So do I. That's why you're in Idaho nursing that emotional bruise and Lehman's just a faded memory.

    You see, the few times I've actually run something, I've not had any of my charges punch me in the face because I'm doing too good of a job. In fact, I've never been punched in the face by any underling because (I hope) I haven't fucked up on the scale that you did.

    @ManchuCandidate:

    I hate to burst this bubble, but if memory serves me correctly, didn't that face-punching incident turn out to be apochryphal?

    No man should ever hit a woman, not even "in self-defense." We the people would now like to impeach this lame judge -- um, "in self-defense."

    A federal judge is living in a Park Ave apartment? That kind of undercuts the whole "we're not paying federal judges enough" argument.

    One slap and I might buy that.


    "We slapped each other back and forth?" Yeah, that's called a beating.

    Slightly off point, this won't be the last we hear about the massive guarantees offered by Sotheby's and Christie's. They're both exposed fairly significantly to a downturn in the market thanks to their policy of offering these guarantees, which is where they guarantee a seller a minimum price, either for an individual work or for an entire collection. They're in for a bit of trouble, I'll wager.

    For Halloween I shlepped Dick Fuld in effigy as part of my costume and a former employee of Lehman Brothers gave me a huge hug and a kiss. She told me she is still out of work and might lose her home. Then someone else at the party saw the Dick and he tossed his drink in his face.


    Dick was pretty beat up when I got him home and threw him in the garbage.
