Montrosini the Great Looks Towards 2010
It’s time for our year end predictions of what’s going to happen in 2010. Has the economy bottomed? Will real estate prices go lower, or start to rise again? Will jobs return to NY, and what kind of jobs and industries are going to fuel our return to the center of the universe? What are…
It’s time for our year end predictions of what’s going to happen in 2010. Has the economy bottomed? Will real estate prices go lower, or start to rise again? Will jobs return to NY, and what kind of jobs and industries are going to fuel our return to the center of the universe? What are we going to see in our neighborhoods? Will people finally stop asking if it’s safe to live in Bed Stuy and Crown Heights, or will the conversation turn back to asking how many people are legally able to share a one bedroom, one bath, brownstone floor-through in Park Slope? Will Miss Muffet buy this year, or will DaveInBedStuy have to sell his 18th century antiques to keep the house? Montrosini the Great predicts many comments. Don’t make me have to wear this hat all week!

Thanks, guys.
Yeah, wasn’t it John Thane who used up the last of Merrill Lynch’s liquidity on a $25,000 wastepaper basket.
Shower curtain guy was Dennis Kozlowski, formerly of Tyco. He is still alive, and I am pretty sure still in jail.
I believe it was Dennis Kozlowski of Tyco with the $6k shower curtain.
John Thain of Merrill Lynch was no slacker in the “decorate on the shareholder’s dime” department either.
Slopey, one of those overpaid, now unemployed CEO’s redecorated his office with a $6000 shower curtain a few years ago. The Enron guy, I believe. Did he die? I can’t remember that either. If he’s alive, and in jail, I’m sure he really misses that shower curtain now.
I heard this new term “manscaping” — where did I read that — which involves the aesthetic removal or rearranging of body hair of the hirsute male. I am waiting for a new trend — shaving of the male face. Oh, that is my other prediction, that men will get rid of the demi-beards in 2010.
General Burnside or muttonchops, one has to be fairly hirsute to carry off the flawless flow of moustachios into side garlands of beard. I would need hairweaves to achieve the look.
I thought General Flavorsaver was the first?
“One last comment. I think that Montrose’s mutton chops were just crying out for a jeweled turban. Kudos to bxgirl for putting this look together for him so well.”
ML, that particular “hair style” is more than just mutton chops and is called the general burnside; its namesake was the first to rock them.
