He's also ruled out War And Pissed Off, No, Go Fuck YOURself, John Mack, Once I Think I’m Out…Tim Geithner’s Treasury Department, My Own Personal Guantanamo Bay, and Fucking Lettuce, much to our dismay.

"Stress Test is essential reading for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression and its implications for the future...In addition to providing unparalleled insight into the financial crisis and the decisions that sought to right the economy, Secretary Geithner offers invaluable lessons for the craft and practice of crisis response.

As you may have heard, Obama is apparently close to nominating Jack Lew for Treasury Secretary, giving Tim Geithner his late Christmas wish: a one-way ticket outta there. And while he's previously said to have no interest in writing about his time in Washington (and at the NY Fed before that), friends o' TG claim that his plan for the next year or so involve "a round of 'detox' and writing a book." Obviously we're still very far off from anything concrete but publishers will undoubtedly be banging down his door in no time and when they do, it might be nice to at least have a title to wet their palates. While Geithner packs his bags, let's do him a solid and come up with some options. The year spent sunning himself off the coast of Ko Samui (or puttering around Larchmont, or taking a job with the least amount of responsibility possible, whatever the detox entails) will presumably do wonders to take the edge of the last 48 months but if he's still in an angsty phase by the time he sits down to bang out his story, perhaps one of the following would work?

Yes, he said that he'll stay 'til this thing gets done but FYI, he's already booked a one-way ticket out of this dump and it's nonrefundable, so if you think he's gonna just stand by while you people fumble around and fuck everything up, thereby prolonging his stay in this asylum one day longer, think again!
