Actually, that’s not entirely true: CG’s first choice of venue to have a roundtable discussion of the definitive take on the crisis, When Mooks Fail: The Goddamn Beatin’ That Bear Stearns Took, is his local Gold’s Gym (the last stop on the tour, late December). But this is at least preferable to doing it in that place with all the books. Will he step into the ring and regale the crowd with a quick demo from a guy who, little known fact, was a Golden Gloves hopeful? I think you know the answer to that. If you, too, would like to wow clients with a celebrity appearance at your annual investor dinner, get in touch.
From: Strategas Research PartnersSubject: Strategas - Boxing Night 2009 at the NYAC
It’s time for the 3rd Annual Strategas Boxing Night at the New York Athletic Club. As a way to socially say ‘thank you’ for the support we’ve received all year, Jason Trennert and I want to invite you to join us for a great night of steaks and boxing. This year the event will take place on Monday, November 23rd at the New York Athletic Club with dinner & drinks to start at 5:30PM / intercollegiate bouts starting at 7:30PM. Charlie Gasparino will also be on hand to discuss his new book, “The Sellout.”

Bess, how the hell did you get that picture? You must have contacts everywhere - just like Chazzy.
Color me impressed.

@5
If you haven't figured it out by now, Bess has one of those psychopathic stalker crushes on Gaspo. She's taken all these pictures herself. Personally I think she's got a host of lewd photos of him she plans to eventually blackmail him into marrying her with. Just for saying this I'll probably turn up floating face down in a river with a spiked heel shoved through my face, but someone's gotta help Gaspo out!

@7/5 "If you haven't figured it out by now, Bess has one of those psychopathic stalker crushes on Gaspo. "
or, she reads little known publications like the new york post: http://dealbreaker.com/2008/07/caption-contest-monday.php
idiot.

@7 that little theory would hold more weight if CG wasn't the one constantly gushing about her on cnbc.

That is similar to this:
New York Ballet Company to present the Nutcracker -- Hank Kliner will be on-hand to discuss his book "How to change the carburetor in your car blindfolded."

Speaking of books...
TGFD bought a hardbound copy of the ko-ran recently at a used-book store (not from the church). It sits now in the backyard, exposed to the weather, with its pages open.
Joyfully, each day I pi$$ upon it, and when we have pork chops for dinner, TGFD takes the blood from the package and lets it fall upon those foul pages.

Was anyone surprised by the 10.2 unemployment number? Are we going to see a negative GDP for Q4? What do think retail sales will be like for the end of the year holidays? In my field, there has been a lot of small short term projects but little fill time hiring...

That photo is from the Trader Monthly boxing event. It was an awesome night. Chazz and Burt Sugar were totally drunk by the last round.

Next up for Charlie is a one-man adaptation of Steinbeck, "Of Mooks and Men," wherein he plays both the John Thain and Kenny Lewis characters at the same time.
