Money Can't Buy You Class

Here is the Countess LuAnn's smash single. I'm not sure whether LuAnn takes herself seriously or not. The proceeds from the single will go to cherity, and LuAnn looks stunning on the video:

Real Housewives of New York City a/o March 25, 2010

Before I begin today's blog, I feel the need to explain something. Kelli, when you buy fur, you are creating a demand for it. This demand for fur causes greedy furriers to skin animals for their fur. Kelli, animals cannot live without their skin and their fur. This is why PETA and other animal lovers consider it cruel to animals to wear fur. If everyone were to boycott fur, nobody could sell it, and there'd be no reason to hurt these furry critters. Not only should you quit wearing fur, but you should boycott anyone who sells fur.

Once and for all, I embrace the Real Housewives of New York City, and my further comments will be without any tone of apology. These ladies are not necessarily heroic. But they are characters that are dropped into a setting that I love: New York City. I will blog about each show I find interesting. Here are my observations about each woman since Thursday's show. These are in no particular order:

I admire Alex. Much goes on behind her quiet face. Unlike the others, she finds no need to verbalize everything. She is the truest friend, trying hard to stay in the middle of the current configuration of two sides that is in heated battle.

Did Alex see her son Francois jabbing Jason's gourmet hamburger in season one? My only criticism of Alex is that she let her children run wild without boundaries or manners that I could see. They impeded the freedom of the adults around them, and I found the situation with the kids at Jill's dinner intolerable.

The burger debacle occurred a long time ago; I'd rather focus on the decency that I observe in Alex. She is less likely to gossip than the other wives. She has a solid relationship with her husband Simon, and she has depth and sincerity about her in this background of wealth and opulence.

The other wife who hasn't picked a side in Jill v. Bethenny is Ramona. I have grown to like her. Ramona's new haircut took five years or so off her appearance. The jewelry that she sells on HSN is beautiful, and it was within good taste for her to show the jewelry to her friends when they were partying on the yacht. She wasn't hawking it; she was sharing her success with her gal pals.

Ramona is a bit of a nut, perhaps manic, certainly moody. She is admittedly uncensored, and she gets herself into trouble. I find Ramona to be self-centered,
