Yes... the word on the street is that he had an altercation involving consuela... and has gone into hiding on some goat farm on an undisclosed Caribbean isle...
Re: Slabbed coins - There are some coins that LIVE within clear plastic and wear their labels with pride... while there are others that HIDE behind scratched plastic and are simply dragged along by a label. Then there are those coins that simply hang out, naked and free

She found all of Longy's old Playboys issues and is trying to blackmail him...he is out to find her location....!!!!.....

Not to fear, gentle readers, your very own Longacre is safe and sound. After a four day jaunt through Beijing, and then a quick two day visit to Xiamen, China, I am now sitting at the posh Swissotel in Singapore, awaiting a 12:15 AM flight back to Beijing, which will connect to a flight to JFK. Given the trying economic times, even Longacre has to occasionally fly commercial with the hoi polloi.
It is now pouring rain in Singapore, so I will venture out to the attached shopping mall and perhaps pick up a bauble or two for Mrs. Longacre. If you're ever in Singapore, and if you have the means, I highly recommend the exclusive shops on Orchard Road. It makes the shops on 5th Avenue in Manhattan look like five and dime stores.
