marx brothers' room service

 This is what my wife figured out (or read someplace and now pretends it is hers). Strauss-Khan was expecting a call girl. Why else would he take a bath in the middle of the day?  Did not realize it was a different woman. The headdress was an added excitement. Even  running out to the door was part of the scene. Running after the maid  he felt gratitude to the  Madame who had planned....

ma(i)d sex

Clearly I know nothing about cultural differences (see my previous post). It seems that honneur oblige to have sex with the maid. Note that in french it is femme de chambre. As the French cannot  imagine that someone who cleans a room could be a maid. More than a day.  Schwarzenegger kept his maid in his house for safer sex. DSK's unwilling maid used to live in an AIDS housing.  Bet that Osama's sex tapes were about chamber maids. .

DSK in galère (maudite galère)

Exercising power is surely an aphrodisiac for many. DSK having an erection. No holds barred. But with an unwilling chamber maid? Where is the limit of honneur oblige.?

5 21 2011

Was checking out this site about the Judgement day and the screen was overtaken by an ad on how to flatten your stomach. Sincerely, I don't think there is enough time left for this....on 5 21 2011 will walk the catwalk with a sagging stomach.

Dark people and the blonde

At first glance, these pictures and the trial smelled of racism. They went after the Indians on Wall Street. The perfect markets were spoiled by these guy! And a blonde. Just these guys? And then this article about income and religion (or education or culture).
We had this game in business school, where we had to negotiate with a colleague the price of I don't remember what. I set a moderately low price and did not budge for one hour as my colleague was offering half that price and so on. At the end there was no deal. In the post-analysis this Sri Lanka colleague explained that in his culture a deal involves a long process of negotiation with exaggerated demands and miser offers. Could ot imagine I was firm.
 So what am I saying? What is the moral of the recollection? Markets have their own culture (or religion), As about education.... Later on our top professors left the school and its "games" to meet the true markets. They went bankrupt.

osama watching porn on tv

In this garrison town, closeted with three wives fussing around, he had to watch porn. Understandable. What was the man going to do?
This guy asked a barber to babysit his son for the evening. When he returned home the guy founds his son playing with the barber's dong. "What is this?". The barber retorted: "Would you have preferred I let your boy play with my knife?"

always ready

I carry a nice silk tie in my pocket. Just in case. Prepared for any disaster.
