Yeah, a Big Mac is food just like a Chateaubriand;
a Mercedes E55 is transportation same as a Kia;
a BigK Emerson stereo barfs out sound just like a Macintosh;
vacationing in Buffalo is the same as in Paris;
silk feels just like polyester;
MD20/20 gets one inebriated like Chateau Lafitte;
Payless covers one's feet as do Ferragamos;
a tin shack would be just as good as where you live now.
You don't get what you pay for in this world. Everyone
that buys an OM-4ti is a fool, when an OM-10 will do.

Riiiiiiiight. You think guys like Sebatiao Salgado, David Allan
Harvey, Bill Allard, etc. are just pretentious fools who are
showing off their Leitz Jewelry ? Nice fantasy. Dream on...
