I am with Jeff on that movie clip. One of the best I have seen. (rated R for language). As someone who has been in straight commission sales for over 14 yrs I can safely say that is what it's all about!! Coffee is for Closers.......

That coffee line is very funny. I have not had a cup of coffee in 25 years and I always make fun of lawyers during a trial who trudge in with a big cup of coffee before the day starts. Usually I tell them that coffee is for cowards...

Mike;

It's not always about closing sometimes you have to dress for success!

Leon, if I buy you the outfit will you wear it to the national especially if we all toss in $20 towards your show purchases??

Jeff is right about coffee I agree, I'm so glad Jeff got over his troubled past I would hate to see this scandal come back to haunt him!



Next dinner you should get Jeff to sign your VHS copy Mike, you know the one that’s always stuck on play when I come over to pick you up for the NY dinners.

Also until recently I didn’t know that the video had sponsors…

Well today I tried to install a water pick, but the wife picked up the wrong one a piece of garbage. The deverter valve broke...being made of plastic. I told her " bring it back ,and let me pick the next one". Also cleaned the Cats **** box, and started my Spring cleaning of the yard.

-Fool me once, shame on you. Fool Chuck Norris once and he will roundhouse you in the face.

-The opening scene of the movie "Saving Private Ryan" is loosely based on games of dodgeball Chuck Norris played in second grade.

-Chuck Norris once shot down a German fighter plane with his finger, by yelling, "Bang!"

-Chuck Norris has two speeds: Walk and Kill.

-Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is based on a true story: Chuck Norris once swallowed a turtle whole, and when he crapped it out, the turtle was six feet tall and had learned karate.

-Chuck Norris is not hung like a horse... horses are hung like Chuck Norris.

Barry, as a criminal defense attorney who had to deal with Spitzer's office, I'd be lying if I said I'm not laughing my ass off over this one; his sanctimony was off the charts. I truly feel for the guy's wife and daughters as they are the only true victims here.

Believe it or not, Boy Butter is a real product. I knew the guy who came up w/BB when he was first marketing it. He was a tenant of ours and went to the same gym as I did. From what I hear it is selling quite well now.

I don't know if this is true or not, but the way I hear it, Spitzer used to just pick up his hookers on the streets (like most good New Yorkers) but...

He began monitoring this board (probably to keep an eye on Lichtman). He became enthralled by the gospel of the Dorskind Group. He saw opportunity where others did not. He decided to pay more for the finest quality available. Whilst this was going on, the FBI was listening.


Thank God they caught him before he started taking out his own full page "want" ads.

Jim, good analysis. Unfortunately, Spitzer got me in the end. Because of his boorish behavior, I am required to wake up early tomorrow morning to do repetitive interviews about him. He's such a selfish bastard that he is now costing me my sleep. He'll pay for it tomorrow morning, however.

There was some kind of auto play feature going on with that video......I wiped out that particular video so it won't happen anymore. If Tom N wants to repost it there and have it where it won't auto play then that would be fine.....I think we need one of these threads every now and then....

Well, it has been a fun day -- I did WINS and WABC radio interviews in the morning, the Michael Reagan radio show tonight and some TV tomorrow including a Canadian show. Basically, I provided some background on Spitzer and what an incredibly judgmental and unforgiving prosecutor he was, who tried cases in the media in order to boost his career. I was especially disgusted that he made his poor wife attend the press conference with him yesterday. My feeling was that since he did this to himself -- and humiliated her by doing it -- the least he could have done was allow his wife to sit this one out. I did point out, however, that this is a man who is truly dedicated to the State of NY because, after all, he refused to sample the hookers of any other state when he traveled out of town and insisted that only NY product be provided to him.

His interstate trafficking of a hooker, breaking I don't know how many laws, was a classy move.

Maybe Spitzer is bidding on the Scarlett Johansonn ebay auction?

Jeff,

Sounds like you had an enjoyable day. Paybacks are the best kind of fun.
