Only gold? Bah. All the people at the yacht club would laugh at me for not having an alloy of platinum and orphan's tears.

Why are they only making ten? I'm already applying for a loan. And in six months when the next generation goes on sale, I'll just refinance so that I can get that one too--covered in platinum and rare jewels, of course, maybe white gold. I haven't decided. Now if I could just figure out how to print something...

The thing weighs over 4 1/2 pounds!

I guess if you can afford one of these you can afford to pay someone to hold it for you while you read.
