Auction?

I just read about these sites in the Reader's Digest. Little tid bits of information when you need them.

www.bid4assets.com recently sold a 1.56 carat diamond and sapphire bracelet appraised at $3,460 for $325.

www.propertyroom.com sells siezed items and things no longer needed after a trial. Examples are mountain bikes, stereos, wrist watches, cameras, & OJ's glove.

Lottery Winner

Did you hear about that woman that won the lottery? She was a cleaning woman or something... her cash take home after taxes was $118 million dollars. CASH FOLKS. I guess she is cleaning up now (ha ha).

So, my trusty calculator says that if she lives for 20 years, she can spend $449 a minute and never run out of money.

That's $7.00 a second every single day for the rest of her life. That's absurd. As Becky would say "Give it to me."

Can you feel me now?
Know anyone who wants to buy a dining room table? It's in really great condition (only 2 years old).

It was mine at my apartment when I was single - too small for us....

Pictures here

Have you ever installed a fence? Holy cow. I had really no idea, first at the cost. Second, at the work of digging 42 holes for posts, and 42 bags of 80 lb. cement.

We ended up buying "middle of the line" fences from Home Depot... something like $70 for a six foot section. Add all the trimmings and you have $6,500 of fence. We love it, and it's safe for Paige... come by some time and enjoy for yourself.

A BIG THANK YOU to Scott, Joey & Ray Boom Boom for helping!! No doubt, I couldn't have done it without you! Thank you Anastasia for helping with Paige!!!!

Here are all of the pictures

I'm out.

I've been told they aren't even RULES! What ever.
Then, than... who knows these rules? A graduate from Uconn. Thanks babe.

Looks like she has a chip on her shoulder! Or, maybe it's Chip's hand. This is from the 2004 Victoria's Secret swimsuit catalog.... maybe it's a tumor. IT'S NOT A TUMOR!

A little early for Christmas.... but I thought this was funny enough to be posted here.

We all have received those emails from a Nigerian Government official notifying that we will receive a billion dollars for a small transaction fee of $18,000. Here is a web site that SCAMS those guys back! It is soo funny. The "Church of the Painted Breast" scam is elaborate and funny as hell! Welcome to the 419 Eater Website

When my Mom worked for the book finder company, they were scammed by some cat pretending to be a minister or something. They ordered 5 dozen bibles and paid with a stolen credit card.

In the Church of the Painted Breast scam, the scamee reverses the scam and gets the guy to send him $80.00 cash!!!

People are so creative - I love the internet.
