Mitty Mit Mit


Wow, would I vote for this guy for Pres or what. Just look at that jawline. He's so perfect he must be.

It's just as well I can't vote. Or maybe it's not. Dennis Kuzciniwini might have been in the White House right damn now.

Scott Sullivan Gets Five

There has been no justice in the Worldcom case. Otherwise it would have been:

"Bertie gets thirty!" (Instead of BerNie getting 25)

and

"Scott gets shot!"

Personally I am just holding out for Enron.

"Ten for Ken! Lay must PAY!"

Ah. Yeah, so what. I am bored. I am on vacation from tonight.

Yay!

More wankers in the hood!

Hard Sell

More Morgan Stanley goss....

This time it's what leaders have for breakfast.

Messrs. Mack and Pandit dined at Fifty Seven Fifty Seven, a favorite breakfast spot among elite investment bankers in the Four Seasons Hotel. Mr. Mack had a plate of fresh berries that cost $13 while Mr. Pandit had the berries plate with a few grapes, bananas, and melon slices thrown in, which cost $15.

A Morgan Stanley spokesman wasn't immediately available for comment and Mr. Pandit couldn't be reached right away.

Did they have coffee? Sheesh, someone needs to start shoving the bus boys some serious wedge.

Actually though, he's offering Pandit the opportunity of a lifetime to work for someone who used to work for Pandit, Zoe Cruz, and absolutely zero likelihood of an enormous geat big compensation package. It's not exactly an attractive option and there's always the conference circuit...

I just need to be loved though. Buy me a banana and beg and I'd come crawling back.

I just baidued myself. It sucked. I got nothing. Nothing! That engine does not know who I am! Fuck that shit, is what I say.

Mainly I'm just pissed off that a ton of people which didn't include me made a shitload of cash on the IPO. Again.

I should never, ever be allowed to control any sort of investment activity. I think I used the word "hype" in the same sentence as Google before the Dutch Auction.

The levels of my cretinous intellect are astronomical.

Kabosh

That's it. Over. Kaputto. Fucked. I am finally all Americanizationed. Just been on the phone with a fabulous chap to add another party to my reservation at Let's Eat Offfal in London and his "accent" got me all hott and bothered.

Kill me now.

Argh! Where are these so called gift givers?

Sheesh, I read some articles and wonder who the hell they are talking about.

The study showed that rather than running through a lot of money on extravagant material items, spending on less-expensive activities gives you a better indication of how someone feels about you, without exciting the human temptation to "gold dig."

To date I don't think I have ever met a guy who even remotely tried to run through a lot of money on extravagant material* items. Mmm maybe once, but that wasn't on me so that doesn't count.

But really though, it's common sense. All that money and all those presents just means that all your friends will end up hating you.

You heard it here first.

*When they say "material" they mean diamonds. Oooh oooh how I laughed.

Things that make me HOTTT

Apple Mouse

Am gagging to get Tiger, gagging. Errr, I guess I just should then. Seriously, is there any reason why I should wait?

More shit on Morgan Stanley

The Post summarizes the scoop from the September issue of Vanity Fair which is a lot juicier than anything Jen Aniston has to say.

Not all Morgan Stanley people were intimidated by Purcell. The former president, Peter Karches, told Purcell to his face: "Just leave . . . you are the most incompetent manager I've been around."

Purcell eventually dumped Karches, giving him a $50 million payoff. At their final meeting, Karches blurted to Purcell: "Phil, you don't have the game for this business." Purcell was said to have replied, "Don't tell anybody."

I can't get enough of these MS/Phil Purcell leaks. Am gleefully addicted. Hollywood is so over. Corporate America is where it is at.

Typical Bloke Goes Ahead and Does it Anyway

Lordy is Bush an arsehole.

WASHINGTON - President Bush sidestepped the Senate and installed embattled nominee John Bolton as ambassador to the United Nations on Monday, ending a five-month impasse with Democrats who accused Bolton of abusing subordinates and twisting intelligence to fit his conservative ideology. "This post is too important to leave vacant any longer, especially during a war and a vital debate about UN reform," Bush said. He said Bolton had his complete confidence.
