Oh Gawd, somebody stop me....
See, I knew not to get involved with this shit.
It's addicting.
And... LEGAL.
And, if this is "legal", well then... weed oughta be too, because I know from painful personal experience that WEED is easier to walk away from than THIS shit.
Still have laundry to do.
ALWAYS have laundry to do, who am I kiddin'? Floors need some intensive attention.
Vacuuming, "cleaning", vacuuming again, mop a couple... shit like that. And, I need to figure out an easy way to vacuum up approximately 49,724 fly corpes and get the smears that were once flies offa the ceiling. If alla the dead flies were on the floor, it'd be easy.
But, they pretty much stick where they get smashed.
Which means I have alla these "decorative" raisin-lookin' things on just everything.
(When I'm engaged in a "fly jihad", I don't care where they die, they just MUST DIE. "Farm living is the life for me", indeed.) I only like about one fly a year.
The FIRST one (or so) I see after winter.
THEY prove spring is comin'.
The rest of these harassing little dickheads can fuck off, ya know?
If they'd QUIT after I've brushed 'em away, that'd maybe be a different story.
But.. they can't DO that, oh no.
They hafta keep comin' back and comin' back and comin' back, til they have you muttering death threats and swinging your arms like a jazz dancer on crack with fly swatters in each hand.
Fuckers. And, what IS it with these cheap assed PLASTIC fly swatters that "fly" (no pun intended) apart when ya smack flies with 'em?
What ever happened to the "old fashioned" kind, with the wire handles and the flexible plastic "fly killer" part?
Those babies WORK, man. These stupid ones I got a coupla weeks ago look like they've been chewed on by some... some... some fuckin' weirdo who'd chew on fly swatters. Oooo, I wonder if they sell decent fly swatters on Ebay? I'll be back later. Peace

Just make sure, make SURE you don't get into retard bidding fever.
When I was selling books on eBay to keep gas in the car I had a few that I started bidding at $2 and would be bid to over $35, when the COVER price was $19 and they were books that were still in print, readily available on amazon for cheap and in the local book store for a reasonable price. It AMAZED me that people really are just that caught up in the frenzy.

Okay, cool.
Thanks for the heads up about that.
"Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" was the first thing I've ever gotten off of Ebay and what I did then was found an "auction" that was nearly over and still cheap.
Then, I set my limit at $5 and if I got it, I got it.
I figured if I didn't "got it" with that one, there are only about 200 other auctions for the same book and I'd just try again.
I think I wound up paying $5 for both the (hard cover!) book AND s&h for it, so I think I did pretty good for a(n) fng.
But, yeah, I can see where it could get outta hand.

Ebay = Satan's spawn.
I have to make sure my credit cards are locked in the safe if I go there. Hell, I just don't GO there because I know the temptaion is too great.

Ebay can be quite addictive. I haven't bought anything from there in a few years. For a while there I was buying a lot of different things...mostly for Christmas gifts. Now I have a bad time keeping myself away from Amazon but really I would save myself some money if I would just go back to Ebay, I bet. Hmmm.
