The
Dom got the gold stud treatment so why not a bottle of sparkling wine spackled with diamonds? A bottle of 2004 Kattus Hochriegl, a sparkling wine from Austria decorated with 49 diamonds
will be auctioned off next month for charity. The bottle is worth 10,000 euros (over $13,000) and will be auctioned off January 22. For those of you who would rather have your diamonds on your body than on your bottle but still like a bit of sparkle, there is a limited edition
Swarovksi crystal covered edition available.

WOW! I CAN SLEEP TONIGHT, THIS INFORMATION JUST TOTALLY PUT MY MIND AT EASE. NOW I KNOW THAT SOME A-HOLE WITH TOO MUCH MONEY WILL BE SPENDING IT ON A BOTTLE OF WINE INSTEAD OF GIVING TO CHARITIES THAT WOULD HELP THE U.S. AND OUR ECONOMY, THE HOMELESS, THE SICK, THE DYING, OUR VETS, OUR ELDERLY, AND OUR CHILDREN. WHAT A WASTE!

For crying out loud.I live in a neighborhood where every day a man knocks on my door and asks for a cup of coffee. I leave a little in the pot always so he can have it. Will whoever buys that bottle please pry off just one diamond and send it to me. I promise I'll use it only for groceries!

O.K. Brandy & Rob...did either of you really read the article? The bottle IS being auctioned off FOR CHARITY. You both now rest at ease. Peace.
Frank Jan 3rd 2007 5:40PM
Chelsea the charity is probably for some lame excuse for a tax right off that will benifit the rich. Don't rest in peace.
Frank Jan 3rd 2007 5:40PM
I agree with Brandy. Too much money, too much waiste. There are way too many people in need of food, and shelter. Waisting money on a diamond studded glorified bottle of wine is a waist. Give me the money I'll know what to do with it. I get hit up for cash at least a dozen times a day. Where I live; with that kind of money to burn, there's a lot of homeless people that would be happy to be fed, given shelter and a warm bed. No wonder: "It's easier for a camal to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into heaven." Quote by Jesus in the Holy Bible.

frank... its waste. Ok. not waiste. thanks.

Karen, we all know what Frank meant. I would venture tou have mis-spelled a word in the past. But, thanks for being so astute.
jerome liefert Jan 3rd 2007 6:55PM
Amen Brandy!! I could not have said it better. America has become a sick, materialistic society like the Romans. Unless we regain our pre WWll values and rid ourselves of the "were No. 1" thinking; we will face a bleak future.
Rebecca Jan 3rd 2007 7:20PM
well..if you read..it IS being auctioned for charity, but i do agree putting diamonds on a WINE bottle is a little too much. but honestly, its better money go to organized charity than to the random homeless guy because they might just go out and get drugs or some other bad stuff.
linda Jan 3rd 2007 7:26PM
I'm curious to know WHICH charity... Seems anyone with the money to burn on an auction of a wine bottle, of all things, would have enough to donate to several charities, and I hope they do. Not holding my breath, however.

Always have the best you can afford. Here's a house with acreage and waterfront on Puget Sound -- the best!

Brandy,
If your so inclined to tell others how to spend their hard earned money why dont you give YOURS away

Michele Jan 3rd 2007 7:40PM
Hopefully the charity is REAL and not a 'charitable foundation' because by law a 'charitable foundation' need only actually donate 10% of all it collects. That's why mega rich families including royalty and billionaires always seem to open 'foundations' hey it's a great money maker except for the fact that it hurts decent people who donate and honestly believe every dime is going to be put to good use. But now I am on a rant.....
FRANK Jan 3rd 2007 7:47PM
Euro idiots for buying the Charity BS. For those not in the auction biz, a percentage goes to the auctioneer and at those stuffy euros most likely the Charity is garage space for broken Lexus Golf carts.Why would you put Diamonds on bottle of 2004 booze 92'93' maybe..........
Cricket Jan 3rd 2007 7:50PM
If you're all so concered about charity, you should be giving to charity instead of wasting your money on internet service griping about other people not giving to charity. (the wine bottle is being auctioned for charity) Please note: A glass of red wine each day helps with circulation and helps prevent heart disease. 1 glass of wine + 1 glass of water = NO HANGOVER. So drink up BLOGGERS!!!
FRANK Jan 3rd 2007 7:59PM
Hey Cricket. Jiminy!!! The best thing for circulation and prevention of heart disease is exercise, not alcohol. 1 glass of wine plus 1 glass of water = dilution of the flavs that help.
