One of the Madoff complainants, on WNBC-TV, said she thought he was a God an now she's suing him. When she was earning 10% or better a month she worshipped him and now it's the SEC that done her wrong. It never dawned on her that if it's too good to be true...
I totally agree. These people were "selected" as Madoff investors. They obviously knew that there was something fishy about the returns, but were happy to be part of it. These people obviously thought they were cheating the system, but it bit them in the ass.
Let this be a lesson to all you overweight fashion magazine workers. FAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE PERIOD! You either shed weight or we will shed you.

"Another thing NYC doesn't want you to have: Flavored tobacco."
This is no big deal considering that the Federal government under Reagan banned flavored rolling papers.
No story on Rev. Billy?
!!!!
RIP Rubberband Lou.

Scumbag mobster getting what he deserves.

Instead of commenting like regular, I decided to record this video in response to the flavored tobacco ban.

UNINTENDED YOU-KNOW-WHAT
Hybrid and electric cars
Unexpectedly
Cause a problem and a danger
Universally.
Silence, it seems, is far from golden
To walkers on the street--
Autos zipping soundlessly
And pedestrians may meet.
Clatter's needed to save lives
Though it shakes the core;
In a city plagued by noises,
Guess we need one more
RIP Capt'n Lou!!!
now where can we post comments about Gothamist's blanket coverage ad-wrap i mean damn thanks for helping carnival cruise lines prevent me from seeing the color blue for a few hours.
anyway if it helps you guys stay afloat (get it) during "Comrade Obama's Recession" then I guess I can shed a few rods and cones. Peace!!
