Palin stiffs hairdresser, Costco hides tomatos

[Ravi]

You can't make this stuff up.

After being ushered to a room on the 15th floor and given some instructions (don't talk to Palin unless she talks first) she did Palin's hair while the former Alaska governor chatted with her family.
Then, the Palin party left to get to the book signing at Costco on time.
Halliday was the last one out of the room because she had to put her equipment away, then watched as they all drove off without anyone mentioning payment or a tip, which is common when the hairdresser travels to the client for the appointment.

the valet attendant got her car, he said that would be $10. She said she was with the Palin party and assumed they would take care of parking. That was news to him, so she had to fork over the $10.

No tomatoes? At Costco?
As she was leaving, she noticed a man with a store manager's name tag and asked him why they had no tomatoes. He informed her the store did have tomatoes, but they were taken off the shelves for a few hours.
It turns out that Palin had been pelted with a tomato at an earlier stop on her book tour and the management at the Costco was determined it wouldn't happen here.

She says her friend has contacted Palin's assistant and was told to send them an invoice.

She should charge $1,000 for the haircut and $500 per half-hour including travel time (minimum 2 hour charge).

If Palin has been reduced to selling her books at Costco I doubt she can afford that much for a hairdresser.

Plus the $10.00.

PDS: the Democrat Slate Cleaner. Gotta Love it.

(Oh, a slate cleaner is a pathogen or bioweapon that can take out 90% of a population.)

 

[uscitizen]

Ohh I do love PDS. Palintologists just do not understand who has the affliction.

This seems to be the norm. Was the hairdresser not paid/tipped at all or just paid/tipped later? The hairdresser should learn to open her mouth if someone stiffs her.

the valet attendant got her car, he said that would be $10. She said she was with the Palin party and assumed they would take care of parking. That was news to him, so she had to fork over the $10.

Um, she paid him. What's the problem again?

Laughing at those posters who are sooooo completely stupid that they still believe that Palin sells her book. It's the publishers, assclown. Simple enough concept to grasp.

More evidence of the stupidity of liberals? I have to ask because it's been explained time and again how this whole 'book writing' thing works and still the koolaiders are too fucking stupid to grasp it.

palin's an asshat.

Uh huh.

No one thinks Palin herself sells her books...but who knows, she may end up doing just that since they are so heavily discounted it is probably difficult for the publisher to break even.

I wonder how many hairdressers across the country she has stiffed?

So I suppose Palin was in Costco promoting tomatoes?

They're already waaaaaaay into profit on Palin's book. Lord knows, I am no fan of Palin but it would be good if we could stick to reality instead of pretending her book isn't a best seller. Simply put, it is a best seller. There are plenty of weapons to use against Palin... Interestingly, not one liberal on here has used the real issues to attack her - it's all about stupidity. Hence I can't take any liberal on this board seriously. The glaringly obvious issues you guys miss and continue to attack on stupidity. You don't need me to make you look like an idiot. You manage more than adequately without any assistance from anyone.

So what is the excuse for putting tomatoes away? Myself, I'd leave them out, I'd love to see a tomato in her big fat face all day long.
