This is from the masthead of a weekly paper I recieve every....Thursday. Previously, the tag line said, "Serving Oklahoma City's beautiful people." At some point (recently), it was changed to serve the affluent people. Interesting change. I wonder what prompted it?
Anyway, this paper serves mostly to stroke the egos of the affluent. It is full of color photos taken from parties attended by the "in" crowd. I confess to looking through it each week. Its a quick update on who's who and what's happening. I don't know how the errant copy makes it to our lowly mailbox each week. (Maybe a left-over from when it served the "beautiful" people.)

We received this paper once (and it was a while back, and that one did say "affluent") and we were so offended that I called and huffed and puffed at someone on the paper. I'd be just as offended by "beautiful people" although I am one. :) Who do they think they are.
The tag line should read, "Excluding whomever we don't deem worthy."
Arg! It makes me mad! Can you tell?
Forgot to sign the above comment.
That was I!
