Of Course this US Attorney has to Recuse Himself..And so does half of the SEC

Here's a picture of me leaving court earlier this morning. Notice that I'm smiling.

Why wouldn't I be smiling? I'm headed back to my very comfy coop on 64th, and half of the SEC has had to recuse themselves from dealing with the piles of papers stacking up. The best part is that even the US Attorney General has to turn a blind eye; after all his son is representing one of my employees.

It just doesn't get better than this when you're a defendant in both a civil and a criminal matter.

Sure, I've got a bracelet on my ankle. Big deal. My wife has dozens of bracelets, mostly gold and diamonds, and almost every one of those bracelets weighs at least four times as much as this little plastic device.

Tune in tonight and I'll tell you what my favorite restaurant on 65th is. I don't have to be home until 7pm tonight, and what with half of my neighbors being wiped out (because they had their cash in my firm),, I won't need to worry about getting a table for me and my family.

Hey, isn't my brother Pete great? You must have read that he said he lost a bunch of his money with the firm, but he's still signing for my bond.. I love this family of mine!
