Worlds Collide pt2, and the LEH situation

Jim Cramer had a great video article about how the FED screwed up really badly in not saving LEH. Yeah that cost me alot of money as a result, but its costing the economy about $1trillion in total debt that is in screwed state. There will be some investigation into what the heck was the analysis behind this, but in the end hindsight is 20-20, and in hindsight the Fed should be quite clear that they screwed up. Banks aren't like other companies -- when they go bankrupt they are screwed, there is no restructuring possible and really no assets to sell off. Don't get me wrong, LEH screwed up and shouldn't be bailed out, but the Govt screwed up worse by not doing what was needed to save the world at the expense of moral hazard. We are all paying for it now as LEH fallout has destroyed the world.

Anyways I am a little back in the action. Sat night I went out w/ this dude AC and Nobu. They say a few other girls are coming (my new girl too). I come to the station to meet them and I see AC and Nobu in deep conversation about this girl Mi that Nobu invited. Apparently the 3 of them (Mi, AC, and Nobu) went out last night and Nobu was into the gal so got her digits, etc and asked her to come tonight. But then it turns out AC had already slept w/ her and he thought Nobu knew, but he didn't. AC also invited some married girl he had slept w/ before, so it was like 2/3 of girls were people he has slept with so he was like damn man this is like worlds colliding!

The married girl was bringing a friend, but it turns out she is a girl that Nobu slept w/ before too recently and was in a semi-weird situation with. So basically there are 4 girls, everyone has slept w/ everyone at this party but most people aren't a couple, and other people are trying to sleep w/ other people. Isn't this like 90210 ? It was pretty messed up for both Nobu and AC, they both felt screwed that night because someone brought someone they didn't want to have in their company.

Man... this is Tokyo life man. Lots of screwing around.
