$8Milli iPhone!

I have a cell phone for ‘emergency purposes’.  In case my car breaks down or, God forbid, I’m in the middle of some natural disaster, and need to call for help or tell my folks I’m aiight, and where I’m at.   I’m not big on yakkin’ on the phone,  and lose a cellphone every 4-6 months.

This iPhone 4 Diamond Rose, a cool $8Milli,  is not for me.

Nice phone though.

The $8Milli iPhone

The 32GB phone is ‘handmade’ of ‘rose’ gold, and has about 500 flawless diamonds (totalling over 100 ct.).  The navi ‘Home’ button is made of platinum with a lil 7.4 ct. pink diamond.   And you can replace that with an 8ct white diamonds, if you like.

The back of the phone has another 53 ‘flawless’ diamonds in the Apple logo.  It comes in a ‘chest’ made of a single block of granite in Imperial Pink, lined with top-notch Nubuck leather. 

The granite, leather-lined 'chest'

Dont rush to pinch the pennies though; the designer, Stuart Hughes, only made two,  and one was already purchased by an Australian businessman with  way more money than common sense.   The other is for a ‘walk-in client’.   (I guess at this price your no longer considered  just a ‘customer’.)

There is even a “add to cart’ button on this man’s site.  AS IF anyone would really spend a whoppin’ $8Milli online just like that…  I wonder if they sell ‘handset insurance’  on this phone, and what the monthly charge and deductible is…   I hope it includes  enough for bail, cause I’d want to kill someone if I lost this phone! 

 ’Prolly have to bust a cap in somebody just to make a phone call…

This is kinda ironic given the fact that half the nation is out of work and scroungin’ to keep the keys to the place and a lil food on the table. But to some of the “Haves”, this is a drop in a diamond-crusted bucket.

This is a lil too rich for my blood.  I’ll stick to my ‘bling on a budget’, keep on stickin’ those ‘press-on’  decals and fake diamonds on my 4 yr old Razor, and do it movin’.   

 But if you have  an extra $8Milli layin’  around, check it out.

Dear Abby: My Son is an Asshole (& Yes, a Poll!)

Read on the net: 

Industrial Strength for this mofo!~

“I don’t want this to become an issue with my son.”   Ain’t THAT a bytch?   I would kick his flickin’ arse,  thinkin’ he could play me like this… 

This lil’ mothaflucka deserves a well- planned and equipped, ass-whuppin.  A down-home ass whuppin’, where he just know he ‘BET not do it again…

How dare him play my heart-strings like that;  that I thought he would not make it.   I promised that out of love, and he’s tryin’  to collect out of greed.    The mere fact that this is presentin’ itself as a financial bind to me, and you still pressure me- your parent who raised you?- is beyond belief to me.     Period.

DEAR ABBY: My 31-year-old son, “Joey,” who needs a heart transplant, almost died a few weeks ago.    The doctors told us he wouldn’t make it through the weekend.     I was beside myself.    On what we thought was his deathbed,   I told Joey I would give him anything he wanted if he pulled through.   

 He wanted a very expensive sports car.

Well, my son pulled through, but has other physical challenges.    My husband and I are sending him $500 a month until he starts receiving money from Social Security.    It’s the best we can do right now.    The problem is, Joey keeps hounding me about the sports car.   I cannot afford this gift.    We have offered to have his current vehicle reconditioned or give him my year-old car with its very low mileage.

I do not want this to become an issue with my son.    I have told him his heart condition is the priority and to let everything else fall into place.     It’s eating me alive that I can’t give my son what I promised.    On the other hand, his request is unreasonable.

Please help. — JOEY’S MOM IN LAS CRUCES

$5000 Burger and other absurd wastes..

     $5000 HAMBURGER!!!

 There’s only one place you could get away with a price tag like this…Las Vegas.   The Fleurburger, created by Chef Hubert Keller is served at Fleur de Lys in the hotel Mandalay Bay.   The Kobe burger contains a special truffle sauce and it’s served on a brioche truffle bun with black truffles on the side.   Now you just don’t receive a burger for $5000, you will also be served a bottle of Chateau Petrus in Ichendorf Brunello stemware imported from Italy and a certificate of authenticity.    You need to be drunk to pay $5-G’s for a hamburger!~

Kopi Luwak coffee

Kopi Luwak coffee comes from the Indonesian island of Sumatra, an area well-known for its excellent coffee. Also native to the area is a small civit-like animal called a Paradoxurus, the locals call them luwaks.    These little mammals live in the trees and one of their favorite foods is the red, ripe coffee cherry. They eat the cherries, bean and all.   While the bean is in the little guy’s stomach, it undergoes ‘chemical treatments and fermentations’.    The bean finishes its journey through the digestive system, and exits (is shitted out).    The still-intact beans are collected from the forest floor, and are cleaned, then roasted and ground just like any other coffee.

The resulting coffee is said to be like no other (they say!).   It has a rich, heavy flavour with hints of caramel or chocolate.  (Shyt?)     Other terms used to describe it are earthy, musty and exotic.   The ‘body’ is almost syrupy and it’s very smooth. AnimalCoffee.com   (!) offers a gift box of Kopi Luwak coffee.
