Bored At the Office

Well today is the last day in the office for 2008. It has been a most peculiar year in that I couldn't find a spare moment the first half of the year and since September, I've had to search for things to do on occassion....and today...I've given up trying. I can pretty much tell you everything happening in the world today according to CNN, FoxNews, ABC, CBS, NBC, BBC and all of the local tv stations & newspapers. Ther is ALOT of information on the web in a single 8 hour day.



Here is to all of you out there and hoping you have a Happy New Year and a Productive 2009!!!

More Spending on Sarah Palin's Wardrobe Revealed

Posted: 06:39 PM ET
Spending on Palin's clothes, makeup and hair made headlines during the campaign.
Spending on Palin's clothes, makeup and hair made headlines during the campaign.

WASHINGTON (CNN) – The Republican National Committee's total fashion bill for Sarah Palin's nine-week stint on the GOP presidential ticket is in: $180,000.

That's $30,000 more than the RNC previously disclosed it had spent outfitting and styling the Alaska governor and her family, according to Politico and the RNC's latest filings with the Federal Elections Commission.

The latest filing, which includes the final 3 weeks of the presidential race, shows the committee directed close to $55,000 to Palin's fashion stylist, New York-based Lisa Kline.

The RNC also spent close to $24,000 in several high end stores, including Ann Taylor, Bloomingdales, Brooks Brothers, Neiman's, Nordstrom, Macy's, Saks, Target, and Victoria's Secret.

The RNC has said all the clothes purchased will be donated to charity.

Meanwhile, the McCain campaign paid a total of $110,000 on Palin's traveling hair and makeup stylists, according to the New York Times and the McCain campaign's latest FEC filing.

News surfaced shortly before Election Day that Republicans had shelled out more than $150,00 on Palin and her family in clothing costs — a revelation that posed an unnecessary distraction for the struggling McCain campaign, and undercut Palin's hockey-mom credentials.
