From the mailbag:
Spotted Andrew Ross Sorkin at a bookstore in Penn Station berating a young clerk for not carrying more copies of his book, “Too Big To Fail.”
He actually said quite loudly: “Dude, you need to carry like a 100 copies of that book. It’s gonna be huge!”
Sorkin has yet get back to us with a comment on the account, and while it doesn’t really seem very in character for the DealBook editor to be making such a spectacle (in public), you can’t deny that he’s right to fight for the guy who just wants to get a gripping account of the shit that went down last year over a few rounds at the Houlihan’s bar, or in the station’s lush new accomodations. One thing you can be sure of is this:
Charlie Gasparino will break the legs of any Borders clerk who fails to keep a minimum of a thousand copies of When Mooks Fail on hand. That’s not a threat, just a fact. To that end, failure to make sure his cardboard cutout is prominently displayed near the entrance at all times will result in having your cojones “snapped off and boiled in motor oil” (that’s a direct quote). Everyone’s been warned.

Sorkin has a very small penis.

He looks so pensive, I’m worried.

Oh the memories. After a long day in the trenches of Wall St, I always looked forward to pissing in the stainless steel urinals at Penn Station, checking out the oblivious cops standing around in groups of two or three and discussing the status of their pensions, and buying a luke warm 16 oz Heineken to consume on the ride back home.

Sorkin’s ghost writer is Mark Klein, M.D.
Those fucks, those fucks.
I have some tube socks that I’d like Charlie to autograph when I buy his book. Bess, could you use your influence to get his OK to do that besides just signing the book for me?

Now is this a naked, or at most, cutoff Champion zip-up hoodie cardboard cutout?
Bess, what are you wearing today?

@4 Penn Station? What? Take your long island trash elsewhere.

What kind of tool would throw his middle name into the mix just to sound more sophisticated?

sorkin- the dirty jerz or strong island?
Did he get that shirt and tie in a box combo from Marshall’s or Ross?
@10:
Don’t get too excited. I also pissed in the urinals at Grand Central, and observed identical groupings of oblivious cops standing around discussing the status of their pensions.
But the stainless steel urinals in Penn Station were kind of unique.

I hate that term Dirty Jerz. Jackie O’s horse stable was in Bernardsville, NJ….wonder why she chose NJ over CT or even worse, Westchester?….because she could.
Jackie O lived in NJ because she’s a filthy whore.
I live in Gowanus. Its nice.
Bess hails from the land of the Livingston Mall!!

But I have a feeling she was more of a Short Hills kind of girl.

Books? How 2005! Get a Kindle.
@19 – Definitely Short Hills for Bessie. Livingston Mall is too “urban”.
Short Hills Mall, good spot to big up MILF/Cougars (“Hi Ma’am I’ll be your er, concierge, this afternoon…”)
@24 – Damn, last time I let my wife shop there.
I live in Gowanus. Its nice here.
Re: married MILFs/Cougars.
Should anyone be so lucky as to hook up at the mall, let me tell you from personal experience you will not regret it. I had things done to me from an innocent looking soccer mom that I’m still looking for definitions of.
You know what is a favorite NakedShort pastime during Holiday Shopping Season? During a crowded afternoon or evening at a mall or store yell out “Mom!” and watch how many heads snap around so fast youd have sworn they shattered their neck.
ARS and Shia would be a good pair.
By the way, did anyone else notice that Sorkin’s initials are the same as that of Argentina’s currency? Exactly. And look where that went a few years ago…I’m just sayin’
@29 also note that they are the same as that of another credit market buggaboo: Auction Rate Securities

This was more a ‘back in the day’ spot; can’t remember the last time I went trolling for milf (or any other type of) poon outside Neiman Marcus…

I go by that bookstore in Penn Station every day. Those books aren’t going anywhere.
@6 -I love it. Pure gold. None of these other donkeys must read dealbook, but I can’t stand Klein…
Do you offer Infographics from other designers/companies besides Column Five Media?
Along with the whole thing that appears to be developing throughout this particular subject material, many of your viewpoints tend to be somewhat refreshing. However, I beg your pardon, because I can not subscribe to your whole plan, all be it radical none the less. It seems to me that your commentary are actually not entirely justified and in actuality you are your self not wholly certain of your argument. In any event I did appreciate looking at it.
