Delusions of Self Importance
n the wake of Aristede's departure, Baby Doc Baby Doc says he's ready to put himself at the disposal of the Haitian people. Ah, yes. Haitians would be well to replace their deposed leader with a former dictator who has been living off of $400 million he stole from them in Paris for 20 years.
In entertainment, Diana Ritchie is seeking $300,000 in spousal support, per month, from Lionel Ritchie. This includes $20,000 a year for plastic surgery. Most egregiously, it includes $125,000 per year for the tuition for their son in his provate school in Colorado, and for her 'once a month' visits to him as a cost of 15-20 thousand per month. First off, how is she travelling to Colorado each month, in a gold-encrusted taxi? Secondly, if one has that much money, and for doing absolutely nothing, it's downright criminal to send your child off to a school five states away and visit him only once a month.
