From Now On, When the Phone Rings You Say, "Vandelay Industries."
Is it just me or is it sublimely appropriate that Norman Hsu's phony business that led to the 3-year prison sentence from which he's currently on the run was ostensibly a latex supplier?
JERRY: I'm Vandelay Industries?
GEORGE: Right.
JERRY: And what is that?
GEORGE: You're in latex.
JERRY: Latex? And what do I do with latex?
GEORGE: Ya manufacture it.
ELAINE: Here in this little apartment?
JERRY: And what do I say about you?
GEORGE: You're considering hiring me for your latex salesman.
JERRY: I'm going to hire you as my latex salesman?
GEORGE: Right.
JERRY: I don't think so.
With Hsu's colorful legal history coming into full bloom, I'm also going to go ahead and congratulate myself on what turned out to be a very prescient allusion to Hsu as Hillary's Magwitch.
Previously: Hillary's Magwitch?

Set the Wayback Machine for 23 August 1995: a hot day in the nation’s capitol. But on California’s Central Coast, a constellation of events was unfolding that would have a profound effect on Western civilization. Yet, this cataclysmic upheaval was only part of the plan. Bill Clinton picked up the telephone. Vandelay Industries, Art Vandelay speaking, said Bill. It was his Chief of Staff Leon Panetta, calling from a payphone in Monterey. Vandelay, huh, say I almost ... muttered Panetta. Bill held the receiver at arms length and gazed at the tasteful floral arrangement that adorned the Oval Office. Leon’s disembodied voice filled the room. What now, asked Hillary. It’s that damn college, mouthed Bill. There was, no getting out. Hillary nodded, just tell Leon he’ll get whatever he needs: http://theseedsof9-11.comPosted by: Rosetta | Oct 8, 2007 10:20:00 PM
