The $235,000 Bathroom Renovation

  
A bathroom renovation totaling $235,000 is a lot to spend. Luckily for the outgoing Secretary of the Interior and former Idaho governor Dirk Kempthorne, it was all paid for by you, the American taxpayer. The renovations on his office bathroom included a new shower, wood paneling and tile, refrigerator, freezer and monogrammed towels. Not sure why anyone would want a refrigerator in a bathroom, but I guess he wanted to make it extra swanky. This might be the most expensive bathroom renovation I've ever read about.
