Floyd Norris chronicles Lehman demise. Moral of the story? (1) It's always worse than you think. (2) Be careful when companies give rosy reports.

This is a blog about miscellany: humor, books, finance, investing, pharmacology, whatever.
And so the first question that the priest asked -- the first question that the Levite asked was, "If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?" But then the Good Samaritan came by. And he reversed the question: "If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to me?"
