Kardashian Kollection

I didn't spell Kollection wrong.  That's the way it was written on the front page of yesterday's Los Angeles Times.  Oops.  I mean that's how it was written on the full page advertisement that was on top of the front page of the LA Times, but if you looked quickly or not carefully you might have thought it was the front page.  What was on that full page/front page ad?  In case you missed it, here it is:





Yes, I  heard a few LA Times readers, those who actually read the news on paper, heard some of them grumble about this front page double take on Thursday morning, heard some grumbling across the 502 square miles of the city (4083 square miles if I include the grumbles across LA County), but is this really surprising in our glittery City of Angels? Actually, on some days the sun is so glaring it's hard to see, and that may explain a lot.

Anyway, Kim, Kourtney, and Khloe have a new clothing line called the Kardashian Kollection, and this new kollection was kreated for Sears.  Kan it get more American? Kan those Kardashian women be more American?  They aren't just celebrities, but they're socialites, reality television personalities, entrepreneurs, models, actresses, and Khloe has been described as a celebutante.  Wow!  And to have a deal with Sears, Roebuck and Co, a store right outta America's heartland, means they've really made it. They've achieved the American dream.  And those of us who live in Los Angeles can see these three dynamos at the Sears in Cerritos this Sunday.  I can't wait!  Hope they show up!

Meanwhile, the LA Times is trying to remain in business, selling wraparound ads and succeeding in losing its dignity and so on and so forth.
