Alex is suing a former partner for stealing her sheet business. Was it ever incredibly successful? This could be interesting.

According to TMZ, Alex and Simon are now waging a law suit against former partner Vivian Douek for hijacking their ridiculously expensive line of bath and bedding products.

In the suit, Alex claims that her business was incredibly successful, and things with her and Vivian's brand was going great until Vivian decided to steal their livelihood by sneaking around to create her own line. Alex alleges that Vivian has now built a competing mass of bed and bath linens with the intent to take all of Alex's customers with her.


Aluxe!

I keep tellin ya, Simon has gone nuts drinking in that basement, harboring old grudges and creating new ones. The business wasn't around long enough to be successful. As I recall they ran around at the last second asking people where to rent furniture for a showroom. Then they supposedly had a showroom for the "fashion week" for bed linens. Then you heard fewer and fewer mentions of aLux until they showed up on Groupon and later had to address Facebook complaints that people didn't receive their orders and there was no communication...........................+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Right around that time as I recall, all the dangerous political activity in Egypt started up. So I thought maybe that had something to do with why the website essentially disappeared and Silex stopped mentioning ALuxe.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

But now it seems somebody stole the idea of selling SHEETS?????? and Towels too? Tell me it isn't true.

Lol, she stole their idea about selling sheets! And how did this turncoat convince the millions of customers that her sheets were superior?

Do you think Vivian realized she was working with two dingbats and ran screaming?

She filed for a trademark in Dec 2012, so things went bad very quickly.

Trademark

I am continuing to watch my DVR of the early years and today's lunchtime pleasure involved five famous words from Simon:

"You're ruining the f***ing suprise!"

Pop goes the Weasel!

It burns? What the heck is that? Does it involve Simon's red, hairy nipples?

Yes, right? Doesn't it burn when his red hairy nipples are on the massage table in Grey Gardens in the Hamptons?

Has this new Vivian babe sold $100mil of these sheets? Even Ralph Lauren doesn't sell that much, I suspect.

I always remember how angry Simon got when the driver missed the Brooklyn Bridge on the FDR. And going to the next exit is mere minutes away, and turning around there is very easy. You saw a very nasty side of him in that scene.

And...he was all pissy because he thought Alex might figure out his big surprise of taking her home for her birthday, right?

See, that's why I was surprised on Couples Therapy that they (Simon and Alex) thought the problem was *her*. To me, it's always been Simon.

Really Disco? Alex was supposed to be the problem? For what, being a doormat?
