Hari Kari - Seppuku (切腹, "stomach-cutting")

An ancient form of ritual suicide that defeated samurai, or those whose shame was 'too unbearable' would use to restore their honor in death. In sepuku, one would take a wakizashi (short sword) and dissembowel oneself (Two stab cuts in the stomach allowing the contents to fall out in front of the body) The less noise you made while doing this, the braver you were and therefore the more honorable, however this did not last long as not long after you had begun, a close friend, comrade, or enemy would put you out of your misery by cleaving your head from your shoulders in one swift blow of the katana (another japanese sword).

It is Time, these Wall Street "Shamefuls" [sic] stepped off the curb, onto Wall Street, to restore their Honor.

There were a large number of Funds - That Bought into
other Funds (Funds of Funds) that did nothing for their
customers other than to take another Fee for moving the
cash. These fees were 1% of the value + 20% of the Profits -
annually. The List of these "Funds of Funds" implicated is
enormous in, both in number of Funds participating and the
Amounts lost!
My example of Fairfield Greenwich Group has 20+ partners
who should line up on the curb - I will contribute to "Fund
for Swords" (about $2,000 for the pair).

Adult Diaper sales are up in Connecticut - to the point of
empty shelves - Wives, and Daughters, so disappointed in
their mates, and fathers, are confessing their countless
"infidelities and affairs" in the neighborhood to further
humiliate their dishonored mates and fathers. For Shame!
