With Israel and Hamas going at it, with our economy in the tank, with natural disasters abounding, we have another crisis!
On the social scene in Washington ladies are facing the "horror of turning up for an inaugural ball wearing the same dress as another guest." Do not fear, however, for Andrew Jones has a solution. His website, www.dressregistry.com, allows ball goers to register their gowns with the color, length, designer, neckline description, and other distinguishing characteristics.
The problem with Andrew's idea is that most women want to make a grand entrance in their dresses, and they certainly are not going to spoil the surprise by posting on his website. I can forsee, though, that with a crisis of this magnitude, Congress will soon mandate that dresses must be registered. Oh, and as long as we're requiring registration, let's just charge a fee for it as well! Thank Congress for another crisis averted!
Paris News funny for the day: This caption appeared on a page 5 photo in the December 31, 2008, edition -- "Models grace the stage of the Paris Community Theatre Saturday during 'A Grand Affair,' the spring fashion show benefiting the Grand Theater marquee sign restoration." Must be global warming -- the vernal equinox seems to have come about three months early this year.
