Imelda Marcos was the First Lady of the Philippians for 21 years while her husband Ferdinand was the President of the Philippians. If you don’t know about Imelda Marcos and her supply of shoes...Google It!
If you have better things to do than Google “Imelda Marcos Shoes”, here is a tidbit I Googled for you...
Ø Imelda loved shoes!
Ø There is a museum dedicated to her shoes where 200 of her 1,200 pairs of shoes are on display for all to see, admire and envy.
Ø Her shoes were not necessarily very expensive but, when she bought shoes, she bought them in great quantity and she bought shoes often.
Some of her shoes...
Here is the entrance to her museum...
Here is the inside of the her museum...
Shoes were not her only extravagance...
Ø On one occasion, she spent $2,000 on chewing gum at the San Francisco International Airport.
Ø On another occasion, she forced a plane to do a U-Turn mid-air just because she forgot to buy cheese in Rome.
And then there was Muammar Kaddafi of Libya…
He may have had more Silly Hats than Imelda Marcos had cheap shoes.
Years ago, before Muammar Kaddafi was made dead I and the world were very worried about him. Not being one to just sit around and worry, I devised a plan to make him change his ways by cutting off his supply of Silly Hats...
Do you not now see why we would have had complete control over him, if only we had threatened to cut off his Supply of Silly Hats? The man just loved Absurd and Silly Hats!
Would I kid u?

Lagniappe: Yea, I know that last one is not Muammar…Or is it?
