60 Minute View Point…


Dressed for Success!

Bertha was recently interviewed by the world famous reporter…Barbara Katie Sawyer…I know you’ve all heard of her…hmmm…
The interview went something like this…
BKS…Bertha…I hear you are working on a new book…can you tell us about it…
Bertha…Of course…Barbara Katie…it’s Putting Your Best Foot Forward: Bertha’s Guide to Life and Shoes
BKS…that sounds interesting…how do you relate life and shoes…
Bertha…honey…everything in life relates to shoes…like…there’s a chapter…called…This Little Piggy Wears Prada…it’s all about not settling for second best…going after what you really want…
BKS…hmmm…I can see how that relates…what are some of the other chapters…
Bertha…well…there’s…When Toes Don’t Show: Keeping a Winter Pedi…it’s all about getting rid of that creepy life fungus…that grows in those…dark…negative thoughts…
BKS…another thought provoking chapter…I definitely will be reading your book…as soon as it comes out…
Berthasmiling politely as she looks at BKS’s feet…I’ll personally sign a copy for you as soon as it’s off the press…and have it special delivered…I think you could use it…I mean…I think you would enjoy it…
BKS…thank you…now…shifting gears just a bit…I know you live with Jane…how have you impacted her life…
Bertha…honestly…she was a mess…before I came along…negative…negative…negative…whine…whine…whine…I’ve really brought her…out of the dumps…she’s almost pleasant now…but…that cat of hers…it never changes…
BKS…Bertha…I know that Jane’s book…Bertha-Size Your Life…is all about you…tell us…who really wrote it…you…or…her…
Bertha...well…I let her do the typing…(buffing her nails on her tube top)…I see no point in chipping my polish on the keyboard…but…I tell her everything she needs to know…the girl never had an original idea in her life…
BKS…hmmm…okay…Bertha…there’s one thing I’ve been wanting to ask you…what’s it like living in Jane’s head…doesn’t it get cramped in there…
Bertha…oh…no…not at all…there’s plenty of room…especially since I cleared out all that negative crap she had in there…in fact…there’s so much room…sometimes…I just rattle around…
BKS…well…um…um…thank you for your time…I think I have everything I need…good luck with the book…and be sure to send me a copy…
Bertha…of course…Barbara Katie…any time…
Jane
