That means he very very likely isn't Muslim. While the Malay religion (Islam) tends to over-shadow the other ethnic groups when representing Malaysia, there is a considerable Chinese and Indian component to the country - neither of which tend to be Muslim.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[verdegrrl]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 31st 2010 12:28PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Billionaires Compete to Get Highest Champagne Tab]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2010/07/30/billionaires-compete-to-get-highest-champagne-tab/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2010/07/30/billionaires-compete-to-get-highest-champagne-tab/</guid><description><![CDATA[I call bull****, assuming the other party was almost in line with what one fellow ordered.. that'd make a combined 6,000 bottles of Cristal.  A semi-trailer can hold around 1,000 cases.  Six bottles to a case.. so these people supposedly ordered a trailer full of Cristal.. right.  Or a club had a trailer full of Cristal as stock.. right.   Yes it is St.Tropez... but just try to break down the number of bottles by time...  assuming they were there for five hours. that's 1200bottles per hour.. or a 20 bottles per minute.. <br><br>Believe the story yet? 20bottles a minute?  I'm aware the story was originally published by another media outlet, but I expected more from the Luxist.  What's next..
