http://ebay.com/<blah>

if each of the 700 strong CR member could chip in $0.15c (which wouldn't be hard as $0.02c is clearly not enough for some of us) then we could have our own little privy world. i would expect 2 weeks before there would be uproar, ego's bruised and battle lines drawn. im sure that there would be record attendance at Le Cirque as well as fellow listers turn up to square off, split hairs, settle their issues and get stuck into a lot of he said, she said countenance.

it certainly would make good sport.im sure OLN would broadcast it so we could get our 15 minutes whilst wearing our favourite del tongo and molteni kits. perhaps laissez faire would end up as a lassoo affair and this droll topic could be given some real notewhorthiness.

... classic content: a lot of the stuff we like and subscribe to the list for and about isnt grown on trees - maybe im wrong and have been smoking too many banana leaves in honor of the new banana republic.

for everything else there's ebay

ciao,
