Preferences Pedestrian

A faded white shirt accents his rumpled brown suit He takes his place unobtrusively sits content, quietly His preferences pedestrian narrowly bourgeoisie Guests sample exotic liquors His pleasure is tea He cares not for flaming duck, nor for pheasant-under-glass His pudgy fingers put a chokehold on a peanut butter sandwich For dessert, the raspberry tort was recommended ~ Buffett pockets two mints, peppermint-scented ____________________________________________________ Of course, it's 'The Oracle of Omaha!' Is there any other Buffet on the world's radar?!

Buffett fascinates me: Still brown-bags it to work several days a week (at age 93 ). Been living in a modest 3-BR Ranch home in Nebraska for 50+ years. And he's like a magnet for money! ... Thanks, Bill.
