~Have a Beer~ Plus Word for the Day.
Two nuns were shopping in a food
store and happened to be passing the beer and liquor section. One asks
the other if she would like a beer. The other nun answered that would be
good, but that she would be queezy about purchasing it. The first nun
said that she would handle it and picked up a six pack and took it to the
cashier.
The cashier had a surprised look and the first nun said that it was for
washing their hair.
The cashier without blinking an eye, reached under the counter and put a
package of pretzels in the bag with the beer saying,” Here, don't forget the
curlers."

ostentation \os-ten-TAY-shuhn\,
noun:
Excessive or pretentious display; boastful showiness.
In a city where the wealthy are known for ostentation, many are now buying
low-profile economy cars to fool kidnappers and thieves.
--Anthony Faiola, "Brazil's Elites Fly Above Their Fears," Washington Post, June 1, 2002
After his marriage, when Francis finally had enough money to indulge his
tastes, his extravagance and ostentation
in matters of dress frequently occasioned comment.
--Lisa Jardine and Alan Stewart, Hostage
to Fortune
It is too early to probe the cause or say how far the staggering ostentation of the
wealthy fomented the sullen disaffection of the poor.
--Stephen McKenna, Sonia
