re 2:34, the singular possessive is correct: "the perpetrator was able to use the Partner’s personal information to establish on-line banking capabilities in one instance ...."

I do question the capital P in "Partner," though.

Wow, 52 minutes before the namecalling started. What remarkable restraint!

"Gonzales said at an awards ceremony that Coughlin deserved recognition for "exceptional dedication and effort to prevent, investigation, and prosecute fraud ... "

Gonzales said that? No wonder he can't find a job.

Someone should tell him there's no such thing as a short-sleeved dress shirt.

How ridiculous of Loro Piana to think this will do anything to deter counterfeiters. Counterfeiters make copies of Cartier watches that are virtually undetectable; how hard would it be to make a fake engraved ring?

Yikes, it's about their Web sites! They look like a child did them.

Just how juvenile is it for a blog to even comment on this invitation, let alone make an item of it. When a partner tells you about the fine pearl necklace he gave his wife, do you fall to the floor laughing? When a coworker asks if there are teabags in the pantry, do you guffaw?

It took him that long to realize Scalia's a jerk? How slow can you be?

The girls needed to improve their German accents, something akin to Hogan's Heroes.

One might think that with Hope Winters' obvious intelligence she might have taken the initiativfe to find her own meal when she learned the firm wasn't providing one.

And what exactly is the meaning of "undersexed" -- not once but twice?

First-year associates were invited to one of our firm's retreats once, but not since: all they did was bitch and complain about trivial matters.
