Bonds Beat Brownstones [Bloomberg]
Lobsters have free will. they freely did things too awful to contemplate to Raymundo.
BTG-Isn’t putting lobsters into someone’s pants considered extreme punishment? To the lobsters?
9:00 AM – Hope you mugged over and over and over as this is the future if these facilities close.
To many it’s the difference between staying out of a gang and getting a job so you should be more than willing to contribute to them staying open or your B’stone will be worth half when the crime rate starts to climb again.
the lobsters are guiltless, they have no free will.
“This is why the House of Detention needs to reopen. As times get harder (read The What), these petty larceny crimes will skyrocket.”
The HOD was never closed, they just used Rikers Detention Facilities. BTW If you Asshats think the NIMBY’s will close HOD, you are smoking crack!
“Bonds Beat Brownstones” Ah no….
Ah, the Bond Market! Now you are going to see some great returns! Rates are going up and hopefully money will mean something again.
I can’t see why people spend their money in Junior’s! They food SUCKS SUCKS SUCKS! Over 100 dollars to get sick, yeah right.
The What
Someday this war is gonna end…
BTG, I think anyone who goes to Junior’s to eat lobster deserves what they get! Stick to the smoked meat and cheesecake. It’s what they’re known for and likely not to have spent time inside anyone’s pants prior to being served. Actually, considering the proximity of the lobster claws to Raymundo’s crotch, it might be well advised to avoid ordering the salami too!
Seduced by a sexy lobster…

10:01, if they can be sure they’re in the first group of shoppers in the door, then they are guaranteed to get the sofa or whatever. and if you still don’t get it, be glad you have enough dough to never even consider doing something like that.
That writer for bloomberg is a total shill for the muni industry. Just read his past columns.
And his comparison is bogus. Most people buying a $3.5M house (or any house for that matter) are doing it with leverage. So the ROI is totally different. I’m not necessarily saying that the house is a better investment vs. the munis, just that someone with the equity to invest in a $3.5M house would not expect to see $175K tax free from the muni investment, even at 5%.
No bxgrl, they weren’t accomplises. It’s akin to kidnapping.
This is why the House of Detention needs to reopen. As times get harder (read The What), these petty larceny crimes will skyrocket.
I just wonder what happened to the lobsters? Were they put back into the freezer after being down Raymundo’s pants and inside his bandages??
Warning not to order the lobster tails at Juniors for the next couple of weeks.
