"At a time when my mother needed me most, I was distracted by legal proceedings, negative publicity and a never-ending workload from clients."When your mother needed you most, you were out partying, screaming insults, and ramming a group of "white trash" with your Daddy's car.

I heard this on TV yesterday, on my way out the door. The keywords are my comments verbatim.
I searched and didn't find this article posted here.

Liz Grubman's boyfriend needs a new seeing-eye dog. This one's going blind, too.

Her last boyfriend doesn't have any problems "seeing clearly", though:
Her last long-term relationship ended in disaster. Andrew Sasson, her onetime boyfriend, testified against her to the grand jury, saying she was visibly drunk at the time.
The "white trash" are just going to love Andrew, come lawsuit-time.
They will all win, too.

Grubman, who now has to deal with eight lawsuits totaling $183 million, said there is no reason to rejoice. It's also worth noting that since she has pleaded guilty to a crime, none of the damages that she'll have to pay as a result of these lawsuits will be covered by her insurance company.
What is more intriguing is that the SUV she was driving belonged to her father. If my understanding of the law is correct, her father will soon be faced with a very interesting dilemma: File criminal charges against his daughter for stealing his SUV, or end up paying a big chunk of that $183 million himself.

I wonder if Lizzie is the subject on which "Sex and the City"'s character Samantha is based?

That first shot is not what I'd want to wake up to in the morning. The second one is apparently the answer to "What do you get if you cross Ozzie Osborne and Gloria Steinem."
I guess some guys would do anything to date a blonde.... My guess is that "Jeff" sits down to urinate.
Then again, perhaps it's the lifestyle:
Grubman spent yesterday near her Upper East Side home, going to the gym in the morning, then heading to a corner deli for some espresso. She also had a meeting at her apartment with business partner Jake Spitz and later grabbed a quick salad at Patsy's Pizzeria.
Finally, I have to giggle at the possible connotations of a firm called "Grubman and Spitz."

You have to love the Post's titles.
You also have to love the fact that Victoria Gotti co-authored this article. I've already had two freepmails asking "any relation to...?"
(The answer is "Yes, ain't it a funny world?")

I see you're here on a gossip thread again today. :-)

Grubman, who backed her father's Mercedes-Benz SUV into a crowd of revelers last summer outside the Conscience Point Inn in Southampton, injuring 16 people, pleaded guilty Friday to leaving the scene of an accident and misdemeanor assault. Under the plea deal, the DWI charge against her was dropped.
Hmm, how many of us regulars could drive drunk, run over some people, and then have the DWI part dropped? How many days is she going to spend in jail anyway?
As for the $185M in lawsuits, alas it doesn't look like Worldcom analyist Jack Grubman is related to her.

Do you think Lizzie is blaming the time she missed with her mother on everybody else? I do. First things first, Lizzie.

I think I read that she can get out after 40 days with good behavior.
I'm glad to hear she wants to really throw herself into her business. She has sixteen people to support now.

This story demonstrates the huge gulf that has appeared between the elites (mostly white) and working class whites in America. The woman is part of a swarm of NYC rich elitists who descend on the Hamptons every August to party, socialize, and treat the natives there like dirt.
She was out at some elite club, thought she was sooo special that she could park her daddy's Mercedes SUV in the fire lane, and then shouted "white trash" at the doorman who insisted that she move it (right before she backed over him with the SUV).
The story shows the utter decadence of the white ruling class in America and their total disdain for the working and middle class people.
She never would have shouted a racist slogan at a minority doorman (way too trailer trashish).
Seldom, if ever, do I hear minority elites badmouthing poor blacks or hispanics. But I hear it constantly from elite whites. It is indicative of a very serious underlying cultural problem.

"hellinahandcart" posted this because she is an anti-SUVitic. She lives in New Yawk City you know. They hate SUVs. She's an artist too and I don't have to tell you about them. Probably rides a bicycle and wants all SUVs taken to the junkyard.

I betcha there's a Bubba from Chappaqua who "feels her pain" and would offer a helping hand to this poor abused young thing...

<< Grubman, who now has to deal with eight lawsuits totaling $183 million, said there is no reason to rejoice. >>
Now that she has plead guilty in this matter, the room-temparature-IQd, butt-fugly, puffy-faced, peroxided, terminally-self-centered and habitually-drunken, thirty-plus years old, daddy's-car-driving, Korsokoff's Syndromed, Grubman, is gunna be very very busy indeed for very very many years and many Hundreds of Millions of Dollars worth of law suits from the other eight little people she drunkenly and arrogantly ran down bring their cases against her.
For my money this may very well turn into one of those situations where in the end justice is not only done but is also seen to be so!
To: quebecois
I agree with you, with qualifications.
There USED to be a concept of "noblesse oblige", which in America was translated into the idea that if you had money and position, you were expected to behave in a benevolent way specifically towards those who worked for you and more generally towards those who did not have your benefits.
Those who inherited money were taught this by their parents. Those who did NOT inherit money did not want to be thought of as trash who happened into their bucks (what we Southerners used to call "no blood and new money"), so they learned quickly how to behave or they were despised.
Whatever the social compact was that insisted on this code of conduct is apparently gone in New York. It still survives in the South (except Atlanta) and I presume portions of New England and the Midwest.

Jeff sits down to urinate?BWAHAHAHAHA. What a low blow.Well ifn he don't i bet he does put the seat down when he's done.HA!
To: hellinahandcart
This is a naueseating human being. "It's all about me," is her only motto. The incident is tragic only in as far as it inconvenienced her. So, this story is essentially how SHE is getting on with HER life after that terrible thing happened to HER.
Vomit inducing. I'm glad I don't live anywhere near the Hamptons.
