"In some ways Citigroup reminds me of this nasty neighbor I had as a kid. He was a hazard to both the community and his wife and kids whom he used to abuse on a daily basis. Then one day he got into an accident; I believe he fell off the back of a truck, cracked his skull and was in a coma. We prayed for his timely exit from this world but he hung on, first for weeks and then for months. 'Neither God wants him nor the devil wants him,' my father remarked with a laugh one afternoon as we laid odds on whether he would live or die." Wow. Long car trips with the Gasparinos must have been a blast. [Daily Beast]
