It’s Friday before a long weekend and clearly we don’t have to tell you we’ve completely checked out.* Unfortunately we’re obligated to stick around here for a few more hours, so, shall we discuss everyone’s Memorial Day plans? This guy Joe Couceiro– Barry Williams’ doppelgänger–would probably appreciate it if we all took a trip to SeaWorld, and while we’re gonna pass, we’re oddly mesmerized by Jeffrey (Geoffrey?), the “frisky” lemur from Madacascar that appeared on Squawk Box with him early this morning. Anyway, plans. Ken Lewis tells us he’ll be spending what will probably be his last MemDayWeekend at the Hilton Head vacay house with the Boone’s Farm representatives he met the other night, which sounds nice. Now you go. Something fun, or studying for the CFA while fantasizing about a life that doesn’t so closely resemble hell?
*A state of mind probably caused in large part by the fact that we’re typing this from a roofdeck where cocktail hour starts at 10AM on holiday weekends.

    @vikram- how is that any different than what you do every day of the week?

    I’m deciding between running for mayor of San Angelo, TX or joining my gay lover in Mexico.

    Me??? I’m going to talk to you like a child. I’m going to the car people and you…you…you are in the Black Hole of …huh…what?…..I’m tired….what?…Hey!!…I’m talking to you, car people, since this morning. I disagree with the Pfizer call.

    @11- same. damn you, CFA. damn you to hell!

    I’m just going to ponder the White House’s groth projections, maybe if drink some Jim Jones style kool-aid they will make a little more mathematical sense.

    @13- maybe if you could form coherent sentences it’d make a little more mathematical sense.

    I’m going over to Michelle Cabruso Cabrera’s tastefully decorated place for lines of coke and donuts. We’re going to watch the Deadliest Catch marathon on Discovery HD and play MarioKartWii, till all hours of the morning.

    Dealbreaker ladies! Shall we plan to meet up at some point over the 3-day?

    That guy really does look like Barry Williams (ie Greg Brady).

    Do you like drinkin’? Well, if you’re like me – you like to get bit just as fast as possible.
    That’s why I’m proud to introduce, to you, Uncle Jemimah’s Pure Mash Liquor.

    @19…excellent “Lebowski” reference!

    this roof deck sounds like the right place to be..what are you drinking?

  24. Posted by guest | May 22, 2009 at 10:48 AM

    I’m going to shave a lemur.

    @3 you ain’t kidding. Even so it might push me over the edge, CNBC really has to get rid of the crawling ticker and those screen overlays when she’s on.

  26. Posted by MichelleObamasPenIsMightier | May 22, 2009 at 10:57 AM

    In spite of the recent posting guidelines, I am not at liberty to outline in detail any of the ass pounding I intend to give this weekend. Sorry. Lets just say, it will be worthy of Memorial day.

  27. Posted by guest | May 22, 2009 at 10:58 AM

    @27- it would’ve been better if you’d gotten it right, and said “in light of.”

  28. Posted by guest | May 22, 2009 at 10:58 AM

    This ain’t Sea World. This is as real as it gets.

  29. Posted by guest | May 22, 2009 at 10:59 AM

    I just watched that clip, and I don’t care what you say, that place looks fun. DB trip this summer?

  30. Posted by HeadlessHorseman | May 22, 2009 at 11:01 AM

    Seaworld’s got a coaster with a top speed of 56 MPH?? Fail.
    Pretty sure I’ve slid down stairway bannisters faster than that.
    In other news, I’m working on a threesome with two 23 year-old vegetarians I met the other night that have offered to make me dinner because I was complaining that my fiancee is out of town. While I’m not a big fan of vegetarian meals, if I’m not getting any meat, you can trust that they will be.

    Lake house…taking the cruiser out. At some point my wife will tell me to avoid certain coves because “high school and college girls are always taking their clothes off over there.”
    Instead, we will park in a “family cove” watching spoiled fat kids beat each other senseless with water noodles while their parents ponder how they are going to pay for their million dollar boat on a $250k salary.
    In laws are coming too.
    Fuck you all.

    I’m on a boat, motherfucker, don’t you ever forget.

  33. Posted by guest | May 22, 2009 at 11:05 AM

    @32- Wow. Your comment makes me want to commit suicide.

  34. Posted by guest | May 22, 2009 at 11:10 AM

    @32 – Do you want a Fresca?

  35. Posted by guest | May 22, 2009 at 11:12 AM

    @32 Buzz fucking kill dude. I will have you know I will be in one of the “certain coves” living the dream. We’ll shoot a water balloon your way.

  36. Posted by guest | May 22, 2009 at 11:13 AM

    going to watch the mets get slaughtered by the red sux, and trying to avoid getting assaulted by some drunk boston chowdahead

    @32 Does your wife know your gay?

  38. Posted by guest | May 22, 2009 at 11:19 AM

    Going to fish a sulphur hatch until Sunday. Then chilling on the boat.

  39. Posted by guest | May 22, 2009 at 11:19 AM

    Bess– I will show you a lemur that will certainly mesmerize.

  40. Posted by guest | May 22, 2009 at 11:20 AM

    @32- at what point in that itinerary do you contemplate offing yourself?

  41. Posted by guest | May 22, 2009 at 11:26 AM

    My weekend will certainly include a copious amount of pounding various orifi with a little bit of coke binging sprinkled in for good measure.

    I swear I will never ever tire of looking at MCC’s magnificent rack!

    Word, I may be at same lake (Westchester?), although definitely no-where near any so-called “family coves.”
    Best of luck!
