Bottle service
February 11th, 2009
The devil put down his fiddle with glee – finance guys were going down. Musicians were back on the upswing and everyone knew women loved rock stars. Orchestrating the economic decline had been surprisingly easy. The inevitable finger pointing had begun in earnest. Experts were blaming consumers, liberals were blaming conservatives, conservatives were blaming liberals, and everyone was blaming bankers. Under immense financial stress and pressure, bankers weren’t treating their girlfriends’ right. Now they were out looking. Even the New York Times had weighed in: “It’s the Economy Girlfriend” (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/28/nyregion/28daba.html?em). His bet was that musicians were next in line. Who else could afford bottle/table service? Then he frowned, the last time he had made a bet he had lost his favorite golden fiddle – and he wanted to keep his hedge against the dollar falling.
