    Beautifully put Lee I wish i had such understanding but years of
    doing high end trade work has turned me into a complete left wig
    radical who believes that if you can spend fifty grand on a piece of
    jewelery you should be taxed right into a trailor park. I can spot
    my customers they are fifty - sixty year old women whos
    expresionless faces are frozen by botox injections and their eyes
    are darn near on the sides of their heads from too many face lifts.
    They have puffy platinum blond hair and carry expensive handbags
    that cost more than some cars and they are the aging trophy wives of
    some old executive who has found it cheaper to keep her. They have
    perfectly done fake nails to go with their neon white teeth and all
    they want to do is talk about who they know, name droping psycos. As
    you can probably tell I dont get to talk to the customers that much
    only in emergencies. Unfortunatly if it werent for my "Misses got
    rocks" I would be flopping whoppers and asking if you want to biggie
    size it. I feel like such a hypocryt sometimes, I wear old work
    boots and flanel and no jewelery not even a watch just so i can
    tolerate myself, you should see the looks on their faces when they
    find out I made the piece and I wasnt their to fix the leak in the
    roof  or unplug the toilet, I am the goldsmith who does all the
    work. 

Sincerely Kevin
