No 3-piece suits? What if I work at a top BB and have a British accent?

Under my tutelage, you will grow from boys to men. From men into gladiators. And from gladiators into SWANSONS.
 

3 hh's in three cities in three timezones in one week? Patrick is Tyler Durden?

Then it flies but you have to hit on every chick in the place and let them know how important your family is

I have been to 2 NYC sessions (including this evening's) and I'm still yet to meet @in the flesh.

I have met others (including the indefatigable @"UFOinsider" and the man I suspect, perhaps erroneously, was @"WallStreetOasis.com") and dutifully have abased myself before them.

In any case, I have made a drunken arse of myself.

Those who can, do. Those who can't, post threads about how to do it on WSO.

Actually, you're quite good company, it was a pleasure. Thank you for the round, I trust you'll let me buy you one next time?!

You can buy me a drink at the next one while I apologise to @"In The Flesh" for confusing him for @wallstreetoasis.com
