Leona's Ghost

Not that I'm trying to sound vindictive, but some things cause me to wonder....like I wonder what the late Leona Helmsley and Satan had for supper last night?



Those who live in a cave probably don't know this, but there's a four-legged animal running around with more paper money than it can pee on.

The late Leona Helmsley left her beloved white Maltese, named Trouble a dozen million. This of course means while the rest of us wallow in a world of bad politics that create trouble in our lives, there's one little four legged rich bitch who has no troubles...so it seems.

Let's examine this scenario a bit closer, shall we?

The ghost of Leona Helmley has spoken, and she still makes her attorneys quake in their books. After all the mess this woman has done to set back human decency for time immemorial, she has the gall to put together a will that cuts out two of her four grandchildren probably for not kissing her feet, and leaves her dog a fortune while paying her limo driver enough to leave in his memory what a royal case of a cheapskate she really was while taking up much needed air on this earth.

It's not that I'm trying to sound vindictive, but some things cause me to wonder....like I wonder what the late Leona Helmsley and Satan had for supper last night? And what's worse--STEAM CLEAN THE MAUSOLEUM ANNUALLY? Or what? Is she going to summon up a bunch of curses to those who do not do her bidding on the other side of the worm fields?

Yes Virginia...there really is a Hel...smley.

The sensitive, caring "Cynth'ya" in me also sees a woman who really never understood what it was like to be wealthy with a heart. She looked down at people who made her day comfortable; she didn't care about anyone except those who did whatever she barked, and the worst of all is this...that name will have just about as much credibility in circles of trust as the name "Lewinski."

There's nothing more to be said other than this..."Wonder where we can get a copy of her obituary and eulogy...I need to brush up on my creative writing skills."

Cynth'ya:

What du heck is a dorg gonna do wit 12 million dollars? Pee on it?

PLEASE: her children worthLESS? They are going to be so resentful, the mean will be passed down unto the generations: but you know who I feel sorriest for? The ones that ARE in the will, that ARE getting money, have to visit her grave once a year, to make sure it is taken care of. They have to REGISTER, for Pete's--if I were them, I'd go there 'round midnight on December 31, sign in. When the Auld Lang Syne came in, I'd sign in again: serves her right.

And they called her the Queen of Mean. LOL *Don't even wanna know what I'd do to sex offenders*

Anyway, tragic state of affairs. Jealous? Thank God, not, but a whole lot of poor people would have benefited more.....

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

I wonder the same thing; to think she left all that money to a DOG insttead of giving it to her family or to the poor is something I will never understand. She truly was the Queen of Mean; not a nice person at all! Sad!!

Hey, don't worry. The pooch will probably get busted in a nightclub for chewing crack and end up in the big dog-house Pen. Dogs go crazy with money. No other dogs around with the necessary funds to bail ol' Trouble out so I guess he'll just stay there until they get to take the 'reserved' sign off the gate where momma lies.
