I suppose one could argue it'd be a $5000 meal, being that wine can be integral to a meal, but nobody (at least in media/blogs/etc) refers to it as a "$5000 meal"

BTW a 1990 Chateau Petrus costs about....

But when I read about something like this, all I can picture is standing in front of God on Judgement Day and him looking at that Certificate that proves I once paid $5K for a burger with extras and then asking me if I knew that men, women, and kids, went to bed with no food the night I did it.

I guess I wouldn't have much right to be surprised if he told me I wasn't welcome in his house.

But you know why people will spend $5,000 on a burger? It's because they can.

I get sick of people saying, "well there's people dying somewhere because they can't eat." well, sucks for them, but even if I gave the $5,000 to charity, I can guarantee you that same kid will go another day without food.

You only live once so if you want to play dumb with your money, guess what, it's your money, so go blow it.

And when the day comes that I'm standing at the pearly gates and they pull out the receipt for that burger. I'd pull out my certificate and compare notes.

Seriously, I don't have to worry about God's judgement, as there's no such being. Just a figment created in your imagination so that when something wrong in life happens, you can blame it on him. Or if someone gets cured of some sickness, it's a miracle of God, I'll believe that when someone regrows an amputated limb. heck, i just read even Einstein said the Bible is jiberish, wasn't he a genius?

Let's see, who else can I upset....
