GOLDMAN
Bonus season at Goldman Sachs. For its employees the investment bank set aside $17 billion. Or the equivalent of about 531 Conans.


GOLDMAN
Record profits at Goldman Sachs means the investment bank can dole out about $17 billion in bonuses. And that’s just for government employees.


PRAYER
A teenage passenger’s Jewish prayer aboard a US Airways jet forced the plane to make an emergency landing yesterday. Passengers were frightened when they saw him stand up and strap something to his wrists and arms. Asked afterwards what he was praying for, the teen said one word: The Jets.


UNEMPLOYMENT
Unemployment hit 10.6% in NYC yesterday. A ten-year-high. It’s about to go even higher when Conan and Triumph the Insult Comic Dog are added to the rolls.


TRIUMPH
Because of the ugly business over at NBC, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog is ready to walk. He’s actually sitting patiently by the front door.
