Many years my junior, and stunningly beautiful, we are so proud of
Gertrude Matilda.
Me? *I've never rally amounted to much which is why I'm so doubly
proud of the little woman.
Please join me in congratulating and wishing Gertrude Matilda a Happy
New Year.
Accepting your assumption, if you are going to toast the New Year,
champagne made with sour grapes is a poor start.

And Gertrude Matilda is wealthy, too. *Her father owned the largest
bidet manufacturing company in America. *Within hours of his death, I
liquidated the company. *She used the proceeds to build the largest
charity hospital on the East Coast. *She now pays 100% of the salaries
of the 138 physicians on the hospital staff.

What a great wife: wealthy, gorgeous, young and educated. *(Did I
mention 4 doctorates?)

Me? *Well ... you know me, eh?

Did you get full retail for the bidets? *Did you shut down the bidet
market in the area for months?
