Oh look, the Dow hit 11k. As this is marginally exciting news for at least one, perhaps two people, we’re going to play Call the Close. Closest without going over wins, and as a bonus question, please also guess how much Dealbreaker friend Gianna Beamers took in in tips last night. Nail both and you’ll score yourself a choice of one “idea dinner” with Lenny Dykstra or a series of lunches with Charlie Gasparino, who will read aloud to you from his new book.

What can I say about Gryphon Financial that hasn’t already been said about Afghanistan; the office looks bombed out and depleted. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go put some water in OptionTrader’s momma’s dish.
