dykstratwizzlers.jpgThat’s what he’s telling Jane Wells, anyway. Last night being one of his “sleep days,” LD says he stayed in the lobby of a Westwood hotel. Why isn’t L-Dykes chilling in the mansion he’s been temporarily allowed to stay in after filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy? Apparently his house is uninhabitable. And why would that be? Because our favorite ball player is a smarter than any of you have ever given him credit for, and in a fit of genius one night decided to tear through the place with a bat and a pair of pliers, ripping up floors and doing god knows what with toilets, in an attempt to get insurers to hand over $10 million. I just want you to take a moment and visualize what the scene that resulted in the following was like:

Dykstra says the main house, the one he bought from Gretzky, is riddled with water damage which Dykstra estimates will cost $10 million to repair. The palatial estate is pockmarked with torn up flooring, holes in walls, missing toilets, as inspectors have tried to determine the extent of the problem. Dykstra is also demanding the insurance company make good on its policy to put him up in a temporary residence because he says the house is now unlivable. “I don’t mean to be crude,” he says, “but where do they expect me to (go to the bathroom)?”

Of course, it wouldn’t kill Jim Cramer to make some space for the guy, or at least free up an outhouse, considering his financial troubles are all JC’s fault, but I guess that’d be too much to ask.

    $10 million in damages? I’m thinking you could almost rebuild for $10 million.

    Does anyone else get the vibe that we are in the Apocalypse when baseball players offer financial advice and disgruntled investors write sexual tell all books? More importantly, how will these things affect my positions?

    Cramer: Guys like us that work on ranches are the loneliest guys in the world. They ain’t got no family and they don’t belong no place. They got nothin’ to look ahead to…
    Lenny: But not us Cramer. Tell about us.
    Cramer: …well, we ain’t like that Lenny. We got a future. We got somebody to talk to that gives a damn about us. If them other guys gets in jail they can rot for all anybody cares.
    Lenny: But not us, Cramer, because I… see, I got you to look after me, but you got me to look after you.

    @22 – at what cup size does a handbridge become unnecessary?

    @22, 26 here, and when you ask this, make sure to wince when he/she answers and furiously write some notes down.

    @22: Here’s some…..
    1. An associate is rummaging around a managing director’s desk one night and finds a million dollars in $20 bills. What should he do?
    Answer: “Credit sales, debit cash.”
    2. What is the square root of 37,000?
    Answer: “192.35, asshole.”
    3. You get laid off as a trader and have to explain why to a potential new employer in an interview. What is the best excuse for such an event?
    Answer: “I made $175 million for my desk last year but my boss said it was a $400 million market, so he laid me off.”
    4. Ask the potential associate this question in reverse role-playing: OK associate, my colleague Jack and I had a bad year. You, Mr. Associate have to reduce the headcount. Do you lay me or Jack off?
    Answer: (Subjective…….)

    Dear Lenny,
    Sorry to hear about the house man – bummer. However, I can’t let you stay with me again. You kinda made everyone feel nervous and weird what with you walking around in your jockstrap and all. Buddy you gotta ease up on the Hubba Bubba and Redman, and you still owe me for that case of Lancers you drank. I guess if you gotta take a dump you can come by – just don’t leave a high floater like last time – that was nasty.
    Your Pal,
    Jimmy

    @22- why not turn the tables and ask him to come up with an absurd interview question. Everyone is ready to answer how many dishes are in the US, but not too many are preprogrammed to come up with their own questions on the spot.

    @22
    Tell him to assign each letter of the alphabet a number in the following manner: A=26, B=25, C=24, etc. Then give him one minute to name as many synonyms for “sad” whose sum numerical value is 107 as he can.

    @22 – if you had worked for Bernie and found out about the Ponzi scheme, would you have kept quiet, ratted him out or squeezed him for a piece of it?
