So that story about Andrés Piedrahita, husband of Corina, son-in-law of Walter, and Fairfield Greenwich exec recently buying a $22 million boat and "cruising the Adriatic" with his wife and friends, appearing to not have a care in the world, while ripped off FFG investors get a crash course in dumpster diving? You got it all wrong! Here's the deal, according to a lawyer for the the worst feeder fund on earth: Piedrahita had already ordered the yacht before the shit hit the fan, and couldn't cancel it. Now, the only reason he's on the thing, is because he's showing it to prospective buyers. You can't expect someone to plunk down 22 mill without going for a test drive, can you? Once someone makes an offer, Piedrahita will turn the money over to Irving Picard, who will distribute it to Madoff/Noel victims. To reiterate, for the Colombian's reading, who want the guy dead: Andrés is not living it up. He cares about your problems, he cares deeply, and if one were a fly on the wall of the boat, it would not be typical around cocktail hour to see him handing his glass to Corina and going "watch this," before doing the worm across the deck to the delight of all passengers. He is heartbroken over what's happened, and in an emotional hole so deep there's few things that could pull him out of it, save for some fresh investor cash or a couple lines of your people's finest. Help him help you.
Who Wants A Yacht? Would Throwing In A Noel Girl Or Two Seal The Deal?

Hey, Paco - we got any assets in the Adriatic?

Don't shed tears. That's a fine piece of money laundering asset he's got there.

Let him know I'll trade him 1 Mexican coke shark for that boat.

If he's really sincere and tearful in his apology and promises to get them their money back...they might just staple his tongue to his chin.

I would pound every Noel sister in the ass on that yacht and then if they really put in the effort, I might give each of them an extra sugar cube with their oats.

@11 the scream mask reference doesn't make sense in this context. KP wore the mask, and in this case, you need to cover the noel girl's faces.
Posted by guest , Jul 30, 2009 10:49AM
I'm interested, but I won't make an offer until I see how they finish at the Preakness next year.

@16 ooops forgot the quote:
"These things are good: ice cream and cake, a ride on a harley, seeing monkeys in the trees, the rain on my tongue, and the sun shining on my face. These things are a drag: dust in my hair, holes in my shoes, no money in my pocket, and the sun shining on my face."

@17 to be fair, the scream mask never makes sense, possibly attributing to it's greatness as a reference.
Posted by guest , Jul 30, 2009 10:58AM
@22 good point.

The Noel sisters are going to get their comeuppance. They are already social pariahs Its only a matter of time before they go broke. Andres can run but he can't hide. The fun begins when they resort to prostitution to makes ends meet... will they charge a premium for a threesome with 2 sisters? I'm a buyer as long as I get to tap the cuzinho...

Do you think a Noel daughter has a "bridle" shower before she gets married?

You think they'd make more if they shave, they are brazilian after all?
No, thinking about, probably not, they'll win by a fur long.

With all the sisters on one yacht, you could say it's a foal house.
