The irony of it. No mirror. No money. No idea how terrifically cute you are!

Paraphrasing a Russian singer, if I was paid every time I think of myself, I would be the poorest person on the Earth) Nicely done, Wolf.

Ooooh. Now that's a Russian singer for you. Can you imagine an American singer ---Beyoncé, Spears, Bieber ---even considering such a statement. Americans are arrogant beyond comparement! Great comment, my friend. Thanks for the enlightenment. :) gw
