Barbara's nose for money
&
the sweet smell of success
Some may have been a trifle offended by Barbara Streisand's lofty self-indulgent excesses when they came to light in an at-home interview just published in Parade Magazine over the weekend.
In view of the troubling economic downturn in recent months, I expect that a few Americans (down-on-their-luck and in dire straits) were pi**ed when it was revealed - by the Diva herself - that she hand-picked a select school of black & white fish to match the color scheme of her pool.
And, talk about horseshoes up the a**!
One day the pampered little fu**ers started flipping out gold fish.
In addition, Streisand was inclined to expound on the finer points of decorating etiquette.
At a time when quite a few homeowners are struggling to meet their mortgages and avoid eviction, Ms. Streisand had the audacity (lack of sensitivity?) to chat about the importance of carrying-over the color schemes "blossoming" in the garden to the interior environs of the home.
Babs, just be thankful you have one!
Your vulgar displays of wealth are disgusting.
Epictetus said it best:
"Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants."
The house of excess!
