"Did not PK O'Rourke or some other counter-culture type writer fellow sneak into the club and write about it 10 to 15 years ago?
While this club seems to be secretive the conversations that really need to be reported on are from the annual "Renaissance" deal down on the beach (Hilton Head maybe) where all the big wigs get together to actually discuss business and the future..."
"Pick your battles, obviously you shouldn't care about this Krystal's service just like you shouldn't care about Denny's service at 3:20am...

"I think that many times the execs can BORROW either against the these huge policies or against the shares the exec owns and the policies pay back the company if the exec dies prior to paying back the loan.
Or as a perk it is taking the cost of insuring a high worth individual from his own pocket and putting it onto the companies overhead."
"Early '90's I temp worked for a computer printer rebuild firm that refurbed printers and the dot matrix heads for same(think autoparts stores of that time,etc)."
"The victim should have known that Comcast NEVER EVER sends out technicians to pre-emptively fix a problem.
He would have had to call and wait for the techs not to show for at least two separate appointment window times along with the one appointment-cancelled-by-phone-scheduler appointment before actual Comcast technicians would show up to fix something."
"@cybercjh: Yeah, the kmart closest to me closes at 9pm all week long- The store is visible from the interstate and surrounded by an interstate exit "village" that is up 24/7!"
