Issue: May 27, 2010
Hi everybody!
Wouldn’t you just love to be rich? Yeah, we hear rich people aren’t happy, but we don’t quite believe it. After all, there are some things only money can buy—like exotic trips, chocolate-dipped massages and superpower-enhancing bodyware. But the poor bastards among us have learned to get creative when it comes to finding fun. This is the summer of champagne wishes and PBR dreams, and RN&R’s Summer Guide 2010 will show you how to indulge in both. Also, we explore Fernando Botero’s fat cats living large in Art of the State, stretch our dollar at Pizza Plus in Sparks and learn to print our own money at Oxbow Press. Just kidding about that last part.
As ever, thanks for reading. If it weren’t for you, we’d be panhandling in the cold.
