Subject: Moore on Yuppies
A Yuppette got married and elected to take a leave of absence from work to set-up and decorate their new home.
A co-worker stopped by to see how she was doing, away from the usual workplace.
"Just fine." beamed the new bride. "John's giving me everything I ask for."
"You're not asking for enough !" replied her friend.
A Yuppie wanted to experience country living so he bought a dairy farm in the Western part of Howard County.
Taking some friends from Columbia on a tour, one asked, "Do all these cows give milk ?"
"Hiram." he replied with pride, "In my tax bracket, they they don't have to."
The Yuppie Mother was seeking advice from her own Mother as to how to make her children appreciate things they take for granted.
"I mean really Mother." she said. "Somehow it just doesn't sound right when I tell them to appreciate their air-conditioned sandbox because there are kids over in Africa sweating."
At a restaurant in Columbia Maryland, a man lost his wallet with all of his credit cards and a thousand dollars in cash.
Using the public address system he announced, "I'll give one hundred dollars to anyone who returns my wallet and money."
Another Yuppie jumped to his feet and said, "I'll make that two hundred and a free dinner."
I was commenting on the size of a birdhouse and feeder I saw in the yard of a Yuppette acquaintance of mine.
She said, "Well... the salad bar takes up most of the space."
