Oh! Do they, these billionaires, purchase rubbers like we do since we are being poor?

Or add 24 carats on them ?

Gold real gold !

My uncle in California used 24 c to make the handles of someone's doors!

They do not think of the poor!

So, the poor only think of the poor?

Yes, nearly all Saudis have gold galore they can not count since they have too much, but Texans now are too poor for such ?

oh, definitely I agree we Texans are way too poor these days for an extravagence like gold door handles! I was thinking about the glory days of the 1920's and 1930's oil boom!

So, what are Texans now doing, burning their gold handles or their wood handles ?? For warmth ? Or going to  become Saudi slaves, as what is it: nukes (sexless?) ?

well, I have thought of selling apples on the street corner, since I am retired and have time on my hand. but, Dusty said that it would embarrass him to see me selling apples, so I guess I'll just keep clipping my coupons and hoping for the best.
