There once was a rat named Ken Lewis
Who told the Treasury he could do this
Till profits did wane
When he bought out John Thain
And now tries to tell Cuomo to “screw this”.
Ken Lewis – “I got this rat, this gnawing, cheese eating fuckin’ rat and it brings up questions… You know, see, John, like you’re the new guy. Girlfriend… Why don’t you stay in the bar that night I got your numbers. Bonus numbers. Everybody’s fuckin’ numbers.”
The rat, although a rodent, is carnivorous. You are aware of that. You will have heard of the things that happen in the poor quarters of this town. In some streets a woman dare not leave her baby alone in the house, even for five minutes. The rats are certain to attack it. Within quite a small time they will strip it to the bones. They also attack sick or dying people. They show astonishing intelligence in knowing when a human being is helpless.
ken, its dave, no your brother dave you mother fucker. I have been standing out here for over 20 min. Mom is going to be pissed if we are late. Just tell Cuomo you had no idea…
on mobile phone:
“Ken, its Dave, no you asshole, your brother dave. I have been down here waiting for you for 25 min! Mom i sgoing to be pissed if we are late. Just tell Cuomo you had no clue, you werent even there.”
“I swear, the chances that this bank will be nationalized are as good as the chances that there’s a 20-foot, smiling rat standing outside this building.”

Probably for a non-union labor job in the area. Last summer there was one outside of the Bear/JP Morgan building for non-union asbestos removal around the corner. They put it on the avenues for visibility even if theyre targeting a building on another street.

Anal_yst,
Yes they are still building that condo (right outside my window). It’s on 45th Street on the 6th Ave side. What looks like the same rat used to be right in front of the condo.
TMI – Two little rats fell in a bucket of cream. The first rat quickly gave up, drowned, and lost his bonus. The second rat, wouldn’t quit. He struggled so hard that eventually he churned that cream into butter, crawled out, and crapped on Cuomo. Gentlemen, as of this moment, Ken Lewis is that second rat…
has anyone seen the BofA commercail about how thet “keep moving forward”? Where the fuck are they getting the money for those ads, please tell me the TARP.

@blndebnker – yes you did…until anal_yst decided we needed shots after drinking for 4 hours. not to worry, we’ll do it again – you can’t beat $7 pitchers and $0.20 wings.
btw – I was looking forward to the showdown btwn you and girl – ha!
So, the company just changed it’s name to ‘Lynch America Countrywide’ to reflect its new diversified portfolio of companies and now needs a new mascot. Nothing too auspicious as a raging bull on steroids, like the lending market that got us into this mess…But something clever, sneaky, and quick to scurry out of trouble…Looks like I have found my home!!!
It’s the holiday armadillo!
who gives a rat’s ass
“You smelled me, now you see me”
I don’t give a rat’s ass about those shareholders
Andrew Cuomo (right) visited Bank of America’s New York offices this morning.
“excuse me, could i use your bathroom? Your balance sheet or ceo’s desk will do….”
“hi I’m Dylan from CNBC, can i ask you a question?”
I’m from the government and I am here to help you.
“Hey, did you see Erin Burnett’s cans? That’s some hot cheese!”
“smells like home”
Wasn’t the rat for a condo building around there? Not a comment, actual question, vaguely remember seeing something on Curbed about it…
this rat just looking for some government cheese
You can call me Wideclops!
Hi, I’m Timmaay — I’m here to help you
