  1. cobblehiller, that’s funny. But you’re assuming that one can actually get a live person on the line when calling our IT department. It’s more like:

    “Please be patient. We are experiencing unusually high call volumes. Your call is important to us and will be answered in approximately 14,756 minutes.” Then one would hear elevator muzak until one could no longer take it and had to hang up.

  2. Biff- Meet the ladies:

    Jacqueline Laurita: A former cosmetologist, she is now a stay-at-home mom, but still loves to pamper herself. She has a teenage daughter from her previous marriage and a 6-year-old son with her husband Chris, who owns wholesale apparel businesses and is brother to Caroline and Dina.

    Teresa Giudice: Born and raised in New Jersey, her husband Joe owns a successful construction company. Together they have three young daughters, who take up much of her time. A friend of Dina and Caroline, she also loves to shop, get spa treatments and spend time at her beach house on the Jersey Shore.

    Danielle Staub: “You either love me or you hate me, there is no in between,” says the single mom of two daughters. She prides herself as one of the first female American Express Black card members in New Jersey. She is also active in her local parish and regularly attends mass. She and Jacqueline are friends.

    Dina Manzo: Founder of the nonprofit Project Ladybug, which helps children with cancer, she’s also an interior designer, an event planner, mother and best friends with her sister Caroline. Her husband Tommy works with his brother (Caroline’s husband) at their family’s catering business.

    Caroline Manzo: She’s a mother of three and owns a real estate firm and a line of children’s accessories. Described as a “feisty spitfire,” she’s Dina’s sister and is on the board of Project Ladybug. She’s married to Albert Manzo, brother of Dina’s husband Tommy. Dina and Caroline’s brother is Jacqueline’s husband Chris.

  3. I wanna hear the conversation between Biff and the IT guys.

    B: “I’m having a little trouble accessing some websites.”

    IT: “Oh, really, which ones”

    B: “Dlisted, and stuff like that, you know.”

    IT: “uhm, Please hold a moment while I get your supervisor on the other line.”

  4. Actually I just looked at it again and after seeing their last names I’m realizing that I’m not going to be able to make fun of them lest I get accused of being you now what by you know who.

  5. THL, I’m sure your place is much nicer and you have more in the bank than the couple who shall not be named representing from Cobble Hill. You would have been a shoe in. But do you have any children with pretentious French and Austrian names? That might be the deciding factor.
