Not just the headline. Sounds like a nice guy, at least in the view of some:
"He reportedly hobnobs with the likes of former President Clinton, former Harvard University President Lawrence Summers and Donald Trump, and has lavish homes in Manhattan, New Mexico and the Virgin Islands.
He has contributed tens of thousands of dollars to Democratic Party candidates and organizations, including Sen. John Kerry's presidential bid, and the Senate campaigns of Joe Lieberman, Hillary Clinton, Christopher Dodd and Charles Schumer.
Goldberger is one of five attorneys Epstein has retained since he became the subject of an investigation, Edmondson said. Among the others: Alan Dershowitz, the well-known Harvard law professor and author, who is a friend of Epstein. Dershowitz could not be reached for comment."
Websters tells me that "hobnob" comes from a phrase meaning to drink together. Ignorant me, I would have guessed it had something to do with a "knob" -- as in a rounded protruberance -- or at least "nob" -- as in the human head (slang) -- either of which could have led the probe to Larry Summers' door (as it were).
Could this be one of the big donors Peretz claims is angry that LS was unseated? If so, he can keep ity. And given Lieberman's ire over of-age Lewinsky's "hobnobbing" with Clinton, I suppose we'll see him returning the donations.
"Then there is Stephen Kosslyn, a psychologist at Harvard. Epstein flew up to Kosslyn's laboratory in Cambridge this year to witness an experiment that Kosslyn was conducting and Epstein was funding. Namely: Is it true that certain Tibetan monks are capable of holding a distinct mental image in their minds for twenty minutes straight? "We disproved the thesis," says Kosslyn. "Jeff was on his cell phone most of the time -- he actually wanted to short the Tibetan market, because he thought the monk was so stupid. He is amazing. Like a honeybee -- he talks to all these different people and cross-pollinates. Just two months ago, I was talking to him about a new alternative to evolutionary psychology. He got excited and sent me a check."
Same article:
"Epstein likes to tell people that he's a loner, a man who's never touched alcohol or drugs, and one whose nightlife is far from energetic. And yet if you talk to Donald Trump, a different Epstein emerges. "I've known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,'' Trump booms from a speakerphone. "He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it -- Jeffrey enjoys his social life."
I am woman of Ukraine visit here with coincidence. I find blog on this topic good, yes, but I'm wonder how this Mr. Epstein like young girl and if he like instead more mature woman offering tender delightfuls. You tell me please how may I contact this Mr. Epstein? Perhaps send you photography to him of mine? I am loving woman need marriage with good man and I think I help this Epstein find out not to probe the young girls but probe the good woman of 20s like me. Yes you tell me this things?
Sorry, this is me, am forget my name. My name Lubyenska Ruleskaya of Luts'k area, Ukraine. You help me this give you my email address too later. This I thank you very much, Richard Bradley, and hope you introduce me Mr. Epstein.
You look into the fiery furnace, see the rich man without any name.
This one has a name though, Jeffrey Epstein, friend of Summers, Trump, et al. In spite of "Lubyenska Ruleskaya" (yeah, sure), there are issues here that are worth digging into and connected to the aims of this blog.
Is Anon 1:35 am in need, perhaps, of some valium? Or a good book? Dante's Inferno has some "fiery" stuff you might like, although no one named Jeffrey Epstein figures in it.
