<title>Slog - Comments on The Business Section</title>
<link>http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/12/the_business_section</link>
<description>Most people don&apos;t read the business sections of their morning newspapers. Too dry, too dull. Me? I make time for the business section--because every once in a while you&apos;re rewarded with a story like this one. But now an unfolding drama over Mr. Tobias’s estate is providing a lurid account of fast money and faster living in the volatile world of hedge funds. Mr. Tobias’s four brothers and Mrs. Tobias are locked in a legal battle over the estate, which is worth at least $25 million. And, in a civil complaint, they have gone so far as to accuse [Mrs....</description>

<title>Comment by NOT Will in Seattle</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>What they failed to mention was that Cupids is a full male nudity review.  As some in seattle know, I grew up in South Florida, and did work at Cupids at one time in the distant past.  Tiger, as he is known, wasn't always tattooed, but had always been muscled.  Yummy, lol.</p>]]></description>

<title>Comment by NOT Will in Seattle</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>I don't have a picture of him, if you go to Cupid's web page though, he worked at the one in West Palm, as well as the one in Miami that opened up later on.  He was on the web page for cupids, pre tattoos, and was Mr. Cupid in 2000, and in 01.  I'll look for it, and make some calls.  I lost his number years ago, but I'll see what I've got.</p>]]></description>

<p>Tiger's done porn, it shouldn't be that hard to locate pictures, if I wasn't at work I'd help you out.  Check TLA video, or another fine purveyor of adult videos, there should be some pictures.</p>]]></description>

<title>Comment by NOT Will in Seattle</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Dan, </p>

<p>I called my friend Bryce who I used to work with there, he told me that they took down all the pictures of Tiger (I think his real name is Chase, but I could be mistaken) because of the pending investigation.  </p>

<p>Some tidbits on him, he ALWAYS did private parties, and was sent out for "events".  The way cupids works is there are back rooms that you can pay by the hour, as well as a fee to the "dancer".  Tiger always had big money clients, thus made him an easy jealousy target to the guys he worked with, because of the money he used to RAKE in.  Mr. Tobias and his wifey were in a lot, and always requested him.  </p>

<p>Sorry I couldn't be of more help, but hope this helps shed a bit more light on the subject.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Will in Seattle @ 10, 19 & 21:</p>

<p>You don't sound like the already established Will in Seattle -- the Fremont celebrant who's always going on about Bill Sherman.  Or who was when Bill Sherman was relevant.  Just for the sake of clarity, can you pick a different handle.  Of course, if you are Will in Seattle, I apologize for thinking that your two apparent personas are contradictory.</p>]]></description>

<p>I've been posting as Will in Seattle, Shhh, DUH, etc.  I pick and choose.  Blogging is something I take lightly, so the handles should be as well.</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Will in Seattle @ 29:</p>

<p>I agree with you that blogging is something to be taken lightly, and I like to use multiple handles too.  But I don't use handles that are established.  Will in Seattle has been a member of what could be called the "slogosphere" for several years, and has built a certain reputation for intellectual consistency.  </p>

<p>The conversations that happen in the "slogosphere" are helped by this kind of consistency -- people know what to expect from Will in Seattle (Fremont).  Same with Judah, Mr. Poe, flamingbanjo, Gitai, and the other regular commenters.  This familiarity breeds not only contempt, but clarity, which, as you may know, being a participant of the InterWeb Thingy, is in increasingly short supply.</p>]]></description>

<title>Comment by Silly Will</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Wow, glad to know my handle became a bigger topic on here than the post itself.  </p>

<p>Glad to see my handles were changed, and silly me for not knowing the "rules"</p>

<p>Anthony, the consistancy you speak of is understandable, and would you like me to go dig through all the past slogs that I posted Will in Seattle, so you can change those handles too?</p>

<p>I may not be the fremont Will, but I do have consistancy in my writing, and would be more than happy to choose a new handle, so you can grade my intellectual level as well.</p>

<p>Entertaining as usual, and thanks for such a high level of interest in my postings.  I'll reconsider posting again... well, at least under that heading.</p>]]></description>

<title>Comment by Aformentioned Will</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Thanks Hal.  It's funny how under the most random of headings and topics, the question of intellectual consistancy comes up.</p>

<p>I had the fear of spending countless hours going back to all my past slog postings throughout this year where I posted Will in Seattle.</p>

<p>Could it be that the level of intelligence level they are speaking of is actually from posts that I've made?  There's something to ponder for a bit.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>The new "Will in Seattle"'s first three posts in this thread are more interesting than anything and everything ever posted by the "established" Will in Seattle (who would be by far the worst Slog commenter of all time if it weren't for Mr. Poe). I vote we make the original Will in Seattle change *his* name -- why not reward quality over longevity?</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>As Dan does it.. let's break this down @38...</p>

<p>1. A annoying?  Gramatically it's "an annoying".</p>

<p>2. An annoying what?</p>

<p>3. No, it's not generic that we're annoying, it's being stubborn that runs between us.</p>

<p>4. I'd rather be stubborn than stupid.</p>

<p>To David @37, thanks for the compliment.  If he's a horrible poster, than I'd rather not carry the name.  Homo Will works just fine for me.</p>]]></description>
