I'm going to post this if you didn't! :P Because I want to know is it common to for English speakers to pronounce "mall" as "mao" instead of "more". :wink:

You can't expect perfection for only $200,000US. :D
Especially with the dollar continuing to collapse.

One hopes the craze in metallic materials for dresses will have run its course soon. And the Dolce & Gabbana super wide metal corset belt with the lock and key on the front has been everywhere for months.

Both women would look lovely in anything at all--a burlap bag with arm holes, for example.

Hmmm, you've given me an idea. I melt a bag full of dimes, spread the liquid out until it's thin as paper, dry it and fashion it into a dress, then sell it for $199,999.

Thanks, Ed! I'll give you a 10% "finder's fee." :lol:
