Very funny + clever Justin. Poor Geppetto can't get a break from kids seeking entitlements. Given Geppetto's skills, maybe he can craft the stilettos? Cheers Brian

Ah, that girl needs to go to work and earn money and buy those stilettos if she wants them! Ol' Geppetto hasn't had much luck with his kids!
