Well the WSJ article is useful in one way: it presents a pretty  
accurate portrait of the vacant mindset and skewed values of the  
glitterati of Beverley Hills and environs. Some of those studly  
manboys out there no doubt found the fact that they couldn't slip  
into their favorite dress, prior to trolling up and down the Strip  
for chickens, to be very useful info. News you can use!

Q: Why are women like Ferrari 599s?
A: Because they all come equipped with a "manettino," a tiny switch  
between the spokes with choices for normal driving conditions , as  
well as psychological needs!

Ain't nature grand!!!
