Recession Hitting San Diego's Superrich; Some Socialites Wearing the Same Gown Twice; Jewel Ball Doesn't Sell Out
I agree with you that it is important to be able to laugh at ourselves. I guess we disagree on what it means to have a sense of humor. I think having a sense of humor means laughing with people not at them.— August 19, 2008 7:50 p.m.
Recession Hitting San Diego's Superrich; Some Socialites Wearing the Same Gown Twice; Jewel Ball Doesn't Sell Out
I can't believe the nerve of some people! While Margo Schwab gloats about the impact the economic recession is having on San Diego's upper crust, she continues to pander to them in the hopes of securing a free seat at the tables they purchase at various charitable events throughout the year. Has Schwab ever considered that the socialite who asked her for a loan to help her make her mortgage payment most likely was humilated by the experience? Instead of keeping their conversation confidential, why is Schwab compelled to mock the woman's financial distress on a public blog? The real story here is the sad fact that this economic recession is hurting San Diegans from all walks of life, not to mention many worthy charitable organizations that enrich the lives of countless people. Instead of engaging in a destructive discussion that serves no positive purpose, it would make much more sense for this blog to encourage people to contribute to a dialogue about how San Diegans, from all cultures and economic backgrounds, can come together to weather this time of economic uncertainty in the hopes of emerging one day as a stronger, more vibrant community.— August 18, 2008 6:34 p.m.
