(It's my understanding that Gottlieb is now a partner at Boies, Schiller & Flexner ... yes, that's Boies as in David Boies.)

Yale can turn out some real snobs of that genre. Tall, dark, skinny, big meat, oddly handsome, and snotty, entitled, and bitchy. I picked up a few at those inter ivy cocktails they had going in the Ivy clubs in NY in the 80s and 90s. Do they still have those?

Someone on DL in a "worst voices of NPR" threads offered a hilarious post about a gaggle of chorus boys kicking dancers, or eunuchs around Ari during ATC.
