Quick Phonetic Note

"Big Lloyd I (.6 Billion)" is pronounced "Big Lloyd: One Point Six Billion."

It is, of course, a reference to the much-discussed total compensation pool for GS employees. Surely some portion of this gargantuan sum will be used to purchase Big Lloyd.

Likewise, "Big Dick I (Hundred Million)" follows the same slightly skewed phonetic pattern. And it too is, of course, a reference to money--in this case the amount of money Eliot Spitzer (soon to be "Big Eliot I (Tough S.O.B.") wants Dick Grasso to give back.
