    Nails' financial column gets the axe:

    I've met plenty of people who brag about how much money they have or what expensive tastes they have. If you ever get offered a job by one of these people, get paid in cash or run away fast.

    I love the part in the GQ piece where the author had to pay money out of his own pocket to go home on the taxi after Nails said he'd take care of it.

    I just love how he goes on that obscene rant and then signs it "Respectfully..."

    But wait, I thought he had previously said a Maybach was the only car worth owning!

    Everyone knows that when your Maybach gets repossessed, a Rolls is the only car worth owning.

    Did Dykstra really write that? He didn't call her "dude" or "bro" once.

    The middle initial is also a hoot - Lenny K. Dykstra? Is that like Ernie K-Doe? How about Maynard G. Krebs?
