MERCIFUL MARY J BLIGE MARY J. Blige has a heart the size of her record sales. Last week, Blige was at the Diane von Furstenberg store in the Meatpacking District when she overheard a girl having a problem at the register. A spy said, "The girl had a dress on hold that she loved, and the bill was $900. She thought it was only $500, and she couldn't afford it." Blige told the saleswoman, "Go get the girl. I want to pay for the balance on the dress." The customer at first declined Blige's offer but relented after the singer said, "I know what it's like to want something and not be able to have it. I insist." The customer wanted to send her a check for the balance, but Blige said, "Just enjoy it. I'm blessed, so let me do this." | |

OTOH, $900 for a dress?! Damn! And how do you mistake $900 for $500?  Mary J. shoulda given her the dough for a pair of glasses.Blanche: Oh, I do love the rain so! It reminds me of my first kiss.
Dorothy: Awww, your first kiss was in the rain... Blanche: No, it was in the shower. | |

Maybe Mary could pay for a set of ear-plugs for me when here self-pitying songs come on the radio.... | |

I know what it's like to want a $900 item and can only afford $500. | |

Nice gesture, but, come on, it sounds like the woman was trying to pull one over on the cashier. Maybe it was on the "sale" rack when she picked it up originally. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

Could have been the girl put it on hold while it was on sale but the sale price was no longer being honored...
