From Hillbilly to Haute Couture - A Day In The Life

At any given moment, New York City is a magical mixture of high class and crass - a mess of Breakfast at Tiffany's meets every episode of Jerry Springer meets Wall Street meets the end of civilization.  Never was that more apparent than today. 

Catering to every Larry, Daryl and Daryl in those brown, square states, Honey Boo Boo and Mama June were at Good Morning America to promote another season of hilarious hillbilly hijinks and that kid was either high on the sizzurp or eyeing the table full of Girl Scout cookies like they were the last supper, because she could not sit still!  Dancing and making faces and running around like some kind of "Anna Nicole Smith: The Early Years", it was oddly fascinating, and I'm sure my therapist will have a field day dissecting this one.
At the other end of the spectrum was Papa Legba herself, Anna Wintour, who was at the Apple Store on the eve of Fashion Week to suck the youth out of a 12-year old model's mouth discuss her career.  This woman hasn't eaten or smiled since 1984 and everything she does is condescending.  Everything.  I want to be her when I grown up!
And then THIS happened!
Oh New York!  It's like living at the end of the rainbow!
