Well actually now we know a) where true value-add lies, b) what we all share in common vs the “occaisional” political vitriol exchanges and c) what that august temple to disappassionate journalism and financial reporting is also really interested in.

Amazing – we’re all human after all.

p.s. – implicit in this and other comments is that most of us are male. The ladies (lord love ‘em all, the long, the short and the tall) are probably either rolling on the floor or rolling their eyes going “boys, boys”

Ah Barry you should have posted this earlier! Like 3 months, I was 20 then and in NY for my internship with no clubs to go to (due to my apparent under-age’ness’)

I know where I’m headed next time I’m in NY! lol

Just came back from Borat. Oh my god. It is the *funniest* film I have *ever* seen. And I’ve seen a lot of films. Sacha Baron Cohen is a comic virtuoso — the Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods of his craft.

Barry: hopefully you caught it this weekend. What did you think?

This revelation has probably ruined it for a number of women. Imagine being a good-looking and shapely lady going to look for shoes, only to be waylaid by horny bachelors (or worse, married men) looking for an easy ****.

I’m glad I’m me, never having to fend off horny women. Sometimes women ask my advice about beer though.

HA!

Go there during the Anniversary Sale in late July… there’s no space in the women’s footwear section then.

Offtopic: Barry, I’m surprised you haven’t done a post about Borat opening today. Who needs the payrolls number — bring on the crazy kazakh!

Make sure you get your tickets early — it is already selling out here in LA.

Was that you lurking around the shoe department? Might also want to try heading over to cosmetics where they do the make-overs and asking “I’m a little concerned about my TV spots and looking best for the camera. Can you ladies show me some tips?”

Oh, and not even the second coming of the Great Depression will keep women away from the shoe department. Not a great read on the state of the overall economy, me thinks….
