Go back to "Plan B"; show up at that open call for "The Pickup Artist 3: Mystery Needs Another Wingman".
But first, come up with a great unimoniker... like "Zeppo" or something along those lines.
Good Luck, stud.

I always thought Assassin was played on trading floors by turning out all the lights and having everyone slap each other's faces in the dark for 5 minutes. When the lights come back on, the ones with the reddest faces were fired.
My, how things have changed...

Doesn't that translate: "Smelly Jim"? Call it a hunch, but I'm thinking we'll never see Jim Cramer and this guy in the same room.

.. and you've got to admit, the name "Magnus Bocker" is pretty kick-ass as well, no?

Hey #10
We French riviera-whore-mongers are a woefully misunderstood bunch. "Don't knock it 'til you try it" is all I'm saying.

Charlie Gasparino is Perez Hilton in a $900 suit peddling rumors, gossip and innuendo... and I know first hand he's been played more than a few times by some of his 'contacts'. Great example was when he was manipulated by the brokerage side of ML during the O'Neil countdown... he took the bait and swallowed the hook. Thats what bottom feeders do.
Ratigan? He's GREAT for TV; his schtick is a perfect mix of Joe The Plumber meets Gordon Gekko... and the underinformed (read: 95% of the country) eat it up like peach cobbler.
I'd give Dilly a "7" most days... I'd give Gasbag a "1" on his best day.

I caught MCC in those white boots as well... I used to like her but lately she seems to be getting VERY full of herself, always injecting some "gotcha" type bullshit into the dialogue.. she's not nearly as smart as she thinks she is. At the very least, she should be smart enough to realize she wasn't hired to be heard from.
