I have a brother. That brother has a child. That child will most likely grow up extremely maladjusted due to the action of the aforementioned brother. However, until that materializes, the stuff that he makes my nephew do is pretty funny. Watch and laugh.
I just learned today that my very dear friend, Ari Zeiger, has begun writing a blog. If ever the medium was invented for a particular individual, Ari was it. His writing style is self-reverential, filled with tons of big SAT words that I find myself having to look up. There’s never a time when I read his writing that I don’t learn something. That something may be a new word, something described in a way I never thought possible, or just how long-winded he can be. Nevertheless, it’s something.
Let me be the first to welcome his blog onto this mess we call the internet. His first post, true to form, is a good one. I encourage you to read and comment. I know there will be many more.
Let’s hope that when this guy gets into the voting booth, he thinks McCain is spelled O-B-A-M-A.
Vanity Fair just put out a piece that priced out Cindy McCain’s outfit from Monday night at the convention. You ready for this? Pricing it out piece by piece, the cost of the outfit was between $299,000 and $313,000!
From the article:
Cindy McCain
Oscar de la Renta dress: $3,000
Chanel J12 White Ceramic Watch: $4,500
Three-carat diamond earrings: $280,000
Four-strand pearl necklace: $11,000–$25,000
Shoes, designer unknown: $600
Total: Between $299,100 and $313,100
I can totally see why they would call Obama an elitist. I mean, sure, I figured the suits that he wears cost at least a half-a-million dollars. Right? I’m sure he goes into his favorite haberdasher and says, “I’ll take the one with the pinstripes. Can you break a billion?”
Seven homes and $300K outfits… real ‘down-to-earth’ folks these McCains are.
So, I just read this article stating that the National Enquirer is about to release a story stating that Vice Presidential candidate and self-proclaimed ‘hockey mom with small town values, Sarah Palin, has had an affair with one of her husband’s business associates (see: another fisherman). Oops. Now, before you dismiss this by saying that it’s only the National Enquirer, they’re the one’s who broke the story of the John Edwards affair. Even more so, if there’s one truly politically neutral newspaper on the planet, I would say that it is the National Enquirer (they only want to make money, they don’t care who they smear).
The article isn’t out yet, so I haven’t read anything and there’s no verification that this is even true. However, it would be great if it was. Nothing like a sinking ship.
