The Rich Life!
Me Tie You Long Time

One of the most hoity-toity hotels in all of Washington DC is taking its rich and famous guests by the throat -- with a guy whose only job will be tying bowties for the fashionably defunct.

Starting next Friday, the Mandarin Oriental will have a full-time "bowtie butler" on staff to help any wannabe Tucker Carlson with all their neckwear needs. No clip-ons please! The service is complimentary for hotel guests and available until the night of the inauguration.

Unfortunately, after the 20th, fellow Americans, you're all on your own.

5. Brad Pitt is going to be 46 this december. After this year, Brad will be looking at age 50 within 4 short years. - He better ride his custom made bike, before he gets too old to ride. However, at age 50, Brad can start looking at 11 year old kids like Michael Jackson or Heff with his 2 pre-teens.

6. Cool, but I think DC will be a mad house during the Inauguration. Thank God I don't live anywhere close by.

7. Any man that can't tie his own bow tie shouldn't wear one.
