I know the whole John Thain (MER)- Ken Lewis (BAC) rumble in the Bronx seems realer than a $35,000 commode but you know full well it’s not official until Geoffrey Raymond chimes in. Blissfully, that time has come. Above, “The Enumerated Thain.” As in the past, the artist, in his infinite wisdom, would like Dealbreaker readers to offer their two cents, for annotation on the canvas. Whatever you’d like to say to Mr. Thain, say here. Raymond is also currently accepting bids for the piece, though you’ll have some stiff competition from Ken Lewis, who’s said to be an interested buyer.

    Ken will use the print in his eco-friendly toilets. Each cubicle will get a strip – saves on toilet paper.

    I contrasted your views of risk management with Dick Fuld’s views for a MBA presentation in early December. I got an ‘A.’
    I don’t know if I still deserve that grade.

    Thain for President!
    i. He maximized shareholder value
    ii. He protected the “chicks” of “mother merrill” by serving a steaming dish of accelerated bonuses
    iii. He graciously did not request for a bonus
    iv. Forget that pricey toilet bowl…shitting is expensive these days with current market conditions!

    A $35,000 commode is nothing compared to Jimmy “J” Cayne’s jewel-encrusted bong, hand-blown by virgin summers in the fourth floor men’s room.
