  1. In my former life as an auditor, I was engaged to do a stocktake on the precious metals vault for the biggest Swiss bank – imagine a football field filled with rack after rack of gold bullion.

    In one corner, there was a small dusty rack with plastic cannisters on it. I picked up two of them filled with dusty grey powder, one in each hand:

    Me: So what’s this then?
    Vault Guy: It’s rhodium
    Me: What’s it for?
    Vault Guy: They use it for sensitive devices
    Me: Cool! What’s it worth?
    Vault Guy: About a million dollars each can
    Me: ….
    Me:
    Me:

  2. Bxgirl, should jewel-encrusted tiaras appear on the doorsteps of the Chief PLUSA Counsel and the PLUSA CFO, all will be forgiven. Also, a lucrative deal to design the 2009/2010 PLUSA Supreme Handbook will be made available to you.

    Thank you.

    Where is the JUSTICE?!”

    Actually , you’ll be learning a overly new trade in prison. You’ll be combing their hair, spinning it into yarn and knitting hair shirts that you’ll be wearing as penitence. You will also have the option of learning how to make cat-o-nine-tails instead and then flogging yourself in a frenzy of regret 🙂

  4. I protest the treatment and slurs to my poor blind cats. You should be ashamed. Ashamed. Just you wait- calling them barbarians. Barbarians! (To the dungeons with you! We may not be rich here in Crown Heights but we got some cold, dank basements for you perpetrators of fraud).

    And to think I was actually thinking of breaking up the jewel encrusted tiara, melting it down and making tiaras for you and snappy. Oh oh, the pain in my heart…oh oh. The agony of defeat.

    Bernie Madoff gets Medium security Prison and I get to be clawed by cats??

    Where is the JUSTICE?!
