A Game For My Readers!

When you hear the phrase "more money than taste," what kind of people come to mind? The two categories of people I most associate with that phrase are Russian zillionaires and televangelists. I have no idea how these two subcultures came to inspire each other to develop similarly gaudy tastes. (Maybe the part of your brain that demands gold-plated Gulfstream jets is the same part that's associated with a desire to cheat on your taxes?)

Anyhow, I'm presenting a little game to you, my faithful readers. I'm going to post pictures of ten houses, and for each house, I want you to identify whether it belongs to a Russian business tycoon, or to a noted TV preacher. You may post your responses in the comments. High score is crowned the King or Queen of Chintz. Good luck!
