Norm and I spent some time in London. We checked out Harrods. It's the biggest and most elaborate department store that I've ever been. I can't remember the number of floors that it has - it's a lot - but they sell everything from condominiums in Dubai to multiple carot diamonds. This is a picture of the seafood department in Harrods. Harrods is owned by Dodi Al Fied's father Mohammed. I don't think he hangs out at Harrods like Montgomery Burns at Springfield Power does, checking to ensure that everyone in his employ is working as hard - and making as much money - as possible. No, he has more faith in his people than that. But to ensure that they don't forget who the boss is, Mr. Al Fied has a wax statue of himself near the entrance of the store. He also has this weird hommage to Dodi and Princess Diana. It's this kind of ugly bronze statue of Dodi and Diana dancing in a circle as they hold hands. Who do you think Mr. Al Fied loves?
