    Large Box of Specimen Cups w/o Lids

    Would make great kids cups. Never been used.

    Jenny sends this one along, saying: “.. Specimen cups?  Like the ones used to keep … specimens?  Specimens such as urine?  Why use any old 50 cent plastic cup for your kid when you can give him one that may or may not have been used to store urine samples (or worse) of people who may or may not have medical problems?  It was listed in free, but I don’t think it’s worth the gamble.”

    I’d have to agree. I think giving my children apple juice in something that looks like this:

    is only destined to cause them problems later in life.

    Tahiti Sam Parrot Statue – $200

    Tahiti Sam is about 2 feet tall and looks like he belongs in the enchanted Tiki room at Disneyland. He’s very authentic looking and in very good shape. He would be great to set up in your Tahitian style bar or patio. Very tropical looking. He weighs around 20lbs.

    Sorry, I just redecorated in early tropical monkey, and this would just clash. Unless it sings Jimmy Buffett songs on an endless loop, in which case it would be really, really cool.* Like the Billy Big Mouth Bass.

    *By “cool”, I mean “annoying”.

    Another one from BF, who brought us the part-time tramp yesterday …

    looking for ski ticket…. – w4m

    blow for blow…
    simple….

    Sure, that seems simple … except that again, it’s in “Casual Encounters”. And it seems like a euphemism for something. Is she offering oral sex for a ski ticket? Or is “ski ticket” itself a euphemism for something? The “blow for blow” part is making me wonder if she’s looking for coke. (I’m not always so quick at the drug references, as we know.)

    In the immortal words of Charles De Mar, “This mountain is pure snow! Have you any idea what the street value of this mountain is?”

    Not exactly simple anymore. Or maybe I’m just overthinking it … it wouldn’t be the first time.

    Edited to add: Darn it, I had a clip of “Better Off Dead” cued up to that exact scene, and YouTube removed the clip between the time I posted the entry and now. Phooey.
