Gee, she sure can talk.

Hard to go past the revelations last week in Vanity Fair from Eleanor Squillari, Bernard Madoff's secretary of more than 20 years who claimed the man was an egotistical sexist who got his rocks off in massage parlors.

"Madoff was flirtatious and had a habit of making sexually suggestive remarks: "'Oh, you know you're crazy about me,' he would say to me. Sometimes when he came out of his bathroom, which was diagonal to my desk, he would still be zipping up his pants. If he saw me shaking my head disapprovingly, he would say, 'Oh, you know it excites you.' If a pretty young woman came in, he'd say, 'Do you remember when you used to look like that?' I'd tell him, 'Knock it off, Bernie,' and he'd go, 'Ah, you still look good.' Then he'd try to pat me on the ass'. "

Squillari also tells how in the days after his arrest, Ruth Madoff would keep calling Squillari and try to get the secretary to provide her with certain information without notifying the bankruptcy trustees.

Why did she participate in this 9000 word piece? Maybe it's the first step to winning a lucrative book deal. Watch that space.
