Opinions you ask? Why don't we explore more "Paulieisms"?
I will preface this exploration with the following facts: I got a GT2, Paulie got a GT2. I bought vacation property in Branson/Arkansas, Paulie bought property in Arkansas. I got a new puppy, Paulie got a new Puppy. I invested in a private equity fund that builds town centers in Texas, Paulie invested in the same fund. I got a large automatic Swiss watch, Paulie got a large automatic swiss watch.
Now, armed with these facts, Riddle me this, my dear Walnut: Why is all your stuff so %$#@$ wonderful while my stuff is consistently described as "stinky": My GT2 "your stinky car"; My Panerai Luminor "stinky watch"; flawlessly pedigreed green eyed red nose Pit Bull (w/ 5 champions, 4 Grand Champions, 3 Registers of Merit in a 4 gen ped) "stinky dog", etc?

Let me clarify some of Sean's observations.
1) Here I try to help out the poor struggling professor with a tip on a private equity fund.He did take my advice.( I expect some form of compensation)
2) My lovley wife & I have a show quality Akita which I would not even compare to a stinky,puny pit bull.
3) My watch is better than yours.
4)Your right everything about you is stinky.
5) We actually purchased 2.5 acres on a cliff overlooking Beaver Lake, Arkansas. Sean on the other hand just did alot of tounge wagging,which he mastered in graduate school.He never closed on his Branson deal.
6) Sean cannot close the deal when it comes to woman.

I don't even have the time to begin addressing each of these so I will just do 1 right now.
The Parasol, primarily due to his extreme cheapness (like always stiffing me for lunch..you were supposed to buy Sunday) and willingness to exploit his workers does have a bunch of money so naturally investment opportunities come his way. Kinda like when Bush Jr got the baseball team.
He asked me about one, called Wallace Bijjali. I looked at it and explained 2 huge factors that made it look good. 1: The mayor of Sugarland was managing the fund (business and politics are bedfellows here in Texas) and the fund was building Town Centers here in Texas (one is already done in Sugarland) and 2: P equity fund managers don't pay normal taxes like normal CEO's, they pay capital gains (IE they only pay 15% tax instead of 33%). Congress is talking about changing this tax code but for now, it is the law.
So of course it looked good. I then had the Vice President of Merril Lynch, a personal friend of mine look at it. He said the numbers looked excellent. For example, the fund had made ridiculously cheap long term lease agreements in places like WACO where they were building the town centers. I invested and recommended that the Walnut also do so. His research contribution consisted of going to Waco and eating at the Benihana (which he considers to be authentic Japanese food).
Paulie should be thanking me and giving ME royalties on the 30% profits he is now making. But does he? NOOOO the cheap bastid won't even spring for lunch!
As mentioned I can't even begin to address the other points but I will say that before I got married I got more trim than a barbers razor.

'Snippet of Despair" I think that will be the car formerly known as Tweety's new name.
We can abbreviate it as the acronym SOD.
Of course "Sod for lunch: Yum!! doesn't have quite the same ring to it, does it?
