Washington Donkery Rant

House of Representatives found some cajones.

Markets tanked because no bailout = panic.

President Bush told American public no bailout = financial disaster.

Enough members of public believed to panic sell.

There is no inter-bank credit so something has to be done but enough representatives want to find palatable solution because they realize they represent their constituencies and average joe is not seeing mortgage relief from yesterday's plan.

Lehman R.I.P.

Today is final day of synopsis being a Lehman or financial blog.

It is the way of a capitalistic society to let a weaker company fail, even if the weakness comes from bad leadership at the top.

Saving grace of bankruptcy is golden parachutes for CEOs are eliminated.

No Utility Today

Lehman top Managment has not shown competence required during mortgage crisis to be placed in charge of a Lemonade stand.

Mookie Recap

Congrats to NYRambler for taking down the Mookie. It was clear after he eliminated me calling off most of his chips with Top pair 7 kicker on 8 high flop he was destined for Mookie Glory!

I am among the most pompous assiest people who ever lived.

I don't think I could make it as a professional gambler.

I blow at high stakes cash.

I'm not good enough. I'm not devoted enough. I'm not patient enough. I'm not even-keeled enough.

And unlike almost every lawyer I know, I absolutely love my day job. I mean, I really love what I do. And I'm going to move on to another company to keep doing my thing.
