GETTING BY ON $100,000 A YEAR
(And Other Sad Tales)

That was a preposterously large sum when this collection of magazine pieces appeared in the late Seventies, though even then there were more than a few who failed to see the humor in it. Today, it’s become less and less funny even to the middle class, who may, in a two-income family in a high-cost locale, be bumping up into just such straitened circumstances.

A.T.

Quote of the Day

"I do count my blessings, but then I end up counting those of others who have more and better blessings, and that pisses me off."
