Repeating stuff is always helpful.
I was gonna keep this out of the public domain, but Mr. Mendelson's post above motivated me to remind everyone that Mr. Mendelson's previous and brief wife/girlfriend/prom-date left him suddenly and surprisingly because she said she overheard him having loan issues on the phone with someone she interpreted as a loan shark or something. And she felt he was getting reminders regarding his markers and was scared. So her fears of Guido(s) culminated in her tossing him out and ending the relationship abruptly.
People may have forgotten about this, as it hasn't been mentioned, either out of respect for Mr. Mendelson or because folks just didn't connect the dots. But, in lieu of Mr. Mendelson's love of reminders, I thought a helpful reminder was called for.
In light of information gleaned this last week, I'd say her credibility just went up about 300%. Hopefully Slap can contact her, if she's still alive and available, and get the necessary details. Maybe this stuff goes back a little bit further than what's been admitted.
Or maybe those posts regarding the last missus have also been removed.
