Blessings of the season…
It’s time again for that annual event reminding all of us that some people have way, way too much money. ******Of course I’m talking about the unveiling of this year’s ”Neiman Marcus Christmas Book,” that holiday catalog that gives journalists a chance to gush over gifts they can’t afford, for readers who can’t afford them either, while a department store gets free publicity beyond belief. ******Anyway, I haven’t seen this year’s catalog, but I’m going to take a wild guess. You can buy immortality (one billion dollars), a toilet made entirely of diamonds (one billion dollars), or a dinner date with Angelina Jolie (one billion dollars).*** Please read our story and let me know if I got it right:
