New From the gargantuan excess department...
In the September 2003 issue of Washingtonian magazine there's a story about Dan Snyder's new home. It may eventually appear [link|http://www.washingtonian.com/|here]. (He's the owner of the Washington Redskins football team.)

Two years ago Redskins owner Dan Snyder bought a $10 million estate on 14 acres overlooking the Potomac. Now he's turning the chateau-style mansion - once the home of Queen Noor - into a fantasy playland with a 12-car garage, an 18-seat movie theater (with popcorn stand), and nearly 1,000 square feet of space known as the "fun room."

[...]

The master bedroom quite for Snyder and his wife, Tanya, has a sitting room, Dan's office, and his-and-her bathrooms. The suite takes up the entire top-floor addition, which measures 3,000 square feet - bigger than the average new home.

The garage will be home to the movie theater on the first floor and a ballroom on the top floor. Together, the garage and house have nearly 30,000 square feet of space.

[...]

A clothes storage area tops 600 square feet. The his-and-her dressing rooms will have skylights.

[...]

The plans call for five plasma-screen televisions - a 65-inch recessed set above the fireplace and four 41-inch models in the bar area.


Sheesh.

Cheers,
Scott.

More modest, if anything. And it's just one.

New If he had to actually, CLEAN IT.... GASP!
I mean really mopping the floors, vacumming, scrubbing the toilets, dusting, etc.

Just once, I'd like to see Bill Gates or Al Dunlap (or their wives) scrubbing toilets. It would make me feel better, and hopefully, it might make them realize that there are other people in the world who have to do crummy jobs, and that they should have mercy on them.


New It's what the rich do best.
Waste money, that is.

Is it enough to love
Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
 
Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please
