hey there.

In between Facebook stalking, heading to the gym, and crafting seemingly endless essays, students have it bad. Maybe my interesting accounts with rivers, hair-straightening socialites, Spanish speaking foreigners and research papers will encourage you to crack back open that African-American Literature textbook and study a little more. Or maybe it will encourage you to ponder the latest People magazine with a hefty serving of Ben & Jerry's Chunky Monkey. Who knows?

Air for Sale!

It seems everything nowadays is sellable. Senate seats in Illinois, burnt toast on eBay...even the rights to name a child! Following in the footsteps of a certain governor's recent actions, I'm going to sell some of my stuff. It might not be exactly mine, but who cares? No one has to find out about that little neglagble detail...right?

Like new. Has gone through photosynthesis. In good condition.

Warning - contains a small amount of pollutants. Is not pure O2.
$1,000,002 (because I really need that extra $2. I can buy a whole pack of gum with that fortune)

Truck Full of White-Out for Sale!
I was driving along Route 80 the other day and discovered an overturned tractor-trailer.
Despite the fact the driver was in critical contition, the white-out in the compartment out back was perfectly okay. I guess he was supposed to make a delivery. You know what they say...finders keepers, losers weepers!
254,682,430,169 gallons of all-purpose correction fluid. Never used before.
I'll even include one of those little brushes for easy application. Remember to shake well!
$340,000,000.01 (I just want a penny for those take a penny, leave a penny boxes at 7-11)

Cardboard Box for Sale!
I was at Sears the other day and saw them unloading a bunch of refrigerators. Those boxes can be super fun! I took one and just stashed it in my car. They won't notice...I hope.
Be like Spongebob and Patrick and use your imagination!
Box is 12 x 4 x 9.
$241
If I think of anything else, I'll let you know. Who knows what is sellable in this day and age? Green gummy bears, used baby wipes, rocks, the letter 'K' from my keyboard...the list goes on and on. And so does the rediculous audacity of greedy individuals who ought to make their money somewhere else. Say, McDonalds.
Blagojevich, this post is for you.
