It seems to me that she suffered too long.

Are you being vain about your age in someone&#8217;s obit? You&#8217;re 26 years older than Michael was. When there&#8217;s an age difference like that, you&#8217;re more parental than brotherly.

Cheap stuff often looks cheap. But then she said, &#8220;I don&#8217;t like the way they fit, and, for the quality, the prices are too high.&#8221; Those prices are too high? Those prices that include material, manufacturing, shipping, and everything else? What kind of child slave labor would you like to employ, Ms. Lopez, to ensure that your $13 piece of crap looks like a million bucks? Jebus! Stick to your cosmetology books and stay out of my paper.<\/p>\n<p>To end on a positive note, my designing friend <a href=\"http:\/\/wendybrandes.com\/blog\/category\/zang-toi\/\" target=\"_blank\">Zang Toi<\/a> worked with Farrah and, in an email to me, described her as &#8220;the kindest.&#8221; Isn&#8217;t that nice to know? <\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In my profile on the right, I say that in addition to other topics, I write about things that annoy me.
