Not like you and me

There's an old bit wherein someone looking upon the eccentricities of a wealthy aristocrat says, "The rich ain't like you and me," whereupon the comic foil responds, "Yeah, they have money."

It was reported last week that although profits are down and the number of employees is also shrinking on Wall Street, bonuses for the Wall Street elite in New York City were up 15% last year.  Anybody out there who is eligible for a yearly bonus remember the last time you got one when your company's profits were down?

Apparently the rich have a shitload of chutzpah, too.

Peace,
