Yesterday afternoon, Judge Richard Holwell agreed to postpone the sentencing for Raj Rajaratnam until September 27. While the news that he’ll have another two months free before heading to prison for what could be 25 years is surely a relief to the Galleon founder, it’s a serious amount of pressure to put on one summer.

While he often strives to make each June/July/August the best one ever, this one must be the ultimate, as it’s going to be the last for a very long time. Knowing that Raj loves a good time, especially if it includes paying someone to get tased for his amusement, midgets or chicks in spandex, any suggestions as to what should be on his list of must do’s this year?

    I’m trying to put together a solid insider trading/Ponzi combo lead-in that would let me end it with the phrase “Weekend at Bernie’s”, but I’m not quite there.

    Maybe he should get a new Profile Pic.  The bench has to run deeper than that one we have seen 50 times now…

    If they were my last 2 months, I would spend them swimming back to Sri Lanka.

    the summer of Raj?  he’ll probably become DSK’s dating assistant, play a little frolf in the park and then end up slipping on some invitations and go to the hospital.

    He should go to Sri Lanka with Rajat Gupta. And both should be shot between the years by the LTTE.
    Alternately Rajat Gupta can escape to Nigeria where his son in law is from. He can get sanctuary there.
    And take Anil Kumar with them.

    Damn right. All you brown Indians STINK of CURRY.
    In my time Indians never made it beyond 711 like Apu in the Simpsons. Or gas station clerks. They deserve no better.
    Now these Indians / Asians are running around Wall Street squeezing out us WASPs who built these institutions. And these inferior races are destroying trust and law with their fancy ivy-league degrees.
    Let’s bring back the Protestant ethic.

    Little known fact: RR is an expert at Pranayama yoga; look it up.  

    Best course of action:
    Hone skills for 3-day mission;
    Report early for prison;
    Go all Sumatran Tiger on the processing clerks=Get tazed;
    Fake heart attack;
    Play dead and buried;
    Done deal in 3-5 days

    I’m thinking Christophe Lambert as DSK, Alan Rickman as Bernie [going with or against type, your choice], The Rock as Gupta and dude from H&Kgo2WC in a fat suit as Raj.

    Oscar Winner or merely perfection?

    Learn self defense and get as much tail as he can, money keeps you safe in the jiont leeches always willing tosellprotection, just never overpay for it. Otherwise you have to be willing to fight if you must and remember biting and kicking is allowed because their are no rule, it’s just staying alive until the CO’s come. Oh, open an Amazon account for material to keep you busy while your in the hole after your first fight.
