    Faux Fur Dog Coat/Jacket NEW (Large) Adorable Ivory w/ pearl detail – $15

    $15 Cash! Faux-fur jacket with ribbon and pearl-like accent at the neck. 16” at neck, 17” at back, 22” around middle.

    It’s a good thing the dog is wearing a fur coat. It looks really pleased about it as well.

    Actually, the dog sort of looks like it would talk with a snooty British accent. “I say, Jeeves, can you hold my fur coat out of the way while I drink out of the toilet? Thank you, my good man.”

    Free Chair

    This is a flying chair. I went many adventures on it. Come take it away have you happy adventures.

    Um. Right. Okay then.

    Actually, I stopped going on “happy adventures” in college after that time I found myself licking the bottom of a bag of Cheetos. But thanks anyway.

    Maid – $100

    House sitter, Baby sitter,house keeping, hi dusting, and floor care.

    Ah, “maid” service. Is that what the kids are calling it these days? Then I probably don’t want to know what hi dusting is, do I?

    Legal Help By A Laywer Not A Paralegal For Barter

    I Will Barter My Legal Help For:
    Car Repairs On A Cadillac Deville, Lincoln
    Painting A 3,000 Sq. Foot House
    A Good Running Car
    New Roof On House
    PS3
    X-Box
    WII
    Or Any Other Barter On This Order

    Apparently Laywers Not A Paralegal Must Type With Capital Letters At The Beginning Of Every Word. Also Apparently Laywers Not A Paralegal Have No Idea How Much Things Cost.

    Here’s A Hint, Mr. Laywer Not A Paralegal: My New Roof Cost $4500. An X-Box Costs Under $500. Those Are Not On The Same Order.

    Oh, by the way: it’s spelled lawyer. Unless you spent three years in Lay School. Wouldn’t you love to see this guy’s briefs? (Oh, shame on you! I was talking about his Laywer Briefs.)

    The syntactic ambiguity of this headline is what pleases me the most:

    Home entertainment system for stripper pole – $300

    I have a 5 pc. in home surround sound entertainment system priced at used value $300.00 . I am looking for a portable stripper pole with base. Base needs to fit through a regular doorway on its side at least.

    This was found in the “barter” section. Because really, if you have a stripper pole, who needs any other type of entertainment?

    Sent in by SJ — thanks!
