    Default Charm School

    Two well dressed ladies happened to start up a conversation during an endless wait in Brisbane Airport Terminal.

    The first lady was an arrogant Victorian married to a wealthy business man.

    The second was a well-mannered elderly woman from Mount Isa, Queensland.

    After a little while the Victorian woman started by saying, "When my first child was born, my husband built a beautiful mansion for me."

    The lady from Mount Isa commented, "Well, isn't that precious?"

    The first woman continued, "When my second child was born, my husband bought me a beautiful Mercedes-Benz."

    Again, the lady from Mount Isa commented, "Well, isn't that precious?"

    The first woman went on, "Then, when my third child was born, my husband bought me this exquisite diamond bracelet."

    Yet again, the Mount Isa lady commented, "Well, isn't that precious?"

    The first woman then asked , "What did your husband buy for you when you had your first child?"

    My husband sent me to charm school," declared the Mount Isa lady.

    "Charm school?" the first woman cried, "Oh, my Lord! What could they teach you ?"

    The Mount Isa lady responded, "Well as an example... instead of saying, "Who gives a F***?",

    I learned to say, "Well, isn't that precious?".

    "It's good enough" is low aim
