you mean their man’s bank account? also these bags are almost always hideous, especially for the ridiculous prices. I guess they’re for people who care more about pretending to be rich than about good style.

Amelia is indeed a Drag Queen.
I dub her Hemelia.

The Norm Sr. story is gross, but after naively renting Happiness and Flirting with Disaster on the same night, I might be kind of numb to old people sex.
Wayne, I don’t presume who does and doesn’t have money, but at the very least, you’re right about Coach being a faux status symbol.
Someday, we’ll wake up and realize we live in the second Gilded Age. Who wants the $2.50 Goldfish from Raindow when The Wedge has ORGANIC fish-style crackers for $5? Why keep your house when you can finally afford a larger one with a big yard, now that the kids have moved out? How can any family haul two kids around with anything smaller than a minivan or SUV? What sane person would drink plain coffee when they can drive to Starbucks for a coffee-flavored breakfast dessert? Who would think to clean house with anything but throwaway sponges, brushes, and brooms?

Norm Coleman (Jr.): Fake Senator, fake politican, fake husband, fake elected offical, fake son, fake Minnesota native, fake conserative, and fake ex-mayor of Saint Paul.
Toss his ass out in 08!
