Eat the Rich

I had a nasty-ass dream—not only had I just been diagnosed with cancer but it was Christmas season. For some ungodly reason, I was shopping in Saks or a Neiman Marcus. It was someplace with dull designer furs, heels, etc with extortionist price tags. You know the joints—the sort where the bill for that mink jacket equals the annual budget of Malta and Jamaica combined.

Yep, I was def in the wrong place—shit I didn’t like at prices I couldn’t/wouldn’t ever dish out AND cancer? This was NOT a happy tine snooze fest

~ Robin Williams

I still miss him—his humor, perspective and talent.

“Rich and famous and doing good," mused Schlichtmann. "Rich isn't so difficult. Famous isn't so difficult. Rich and famous together aren't so difficult. Rich, famous, and doing good--now, that's very difficult.”

Tell it brother! Too many examples to list but we can start with Jeff Bezos and Richard Branson—the space cases. And let's not forget George Bush
