I haven't listed anything on eBay today, but I have put a list of cameras for sale on the photo site in the meantime. I'm appalled how much work it was hacking an ad banner into Coppermine. At least it's relatively tasteful. Note the inclusion of the actual Ixus 400 I took Friday's shots with, and the Ixus 430 that arrived this morning in utterly immaculate condition and which it hurts to part with. (But which I got another test shot with for the article!)

In the meantime, this thing keeps showing up again and again. I think everyone who buys it does so to sell it again and it'll never get used, ever. Just circulate forever on eBay.

Thank you for the link! (See otterhill's journal for updates; she's looking at some major surgery soon.)

I want a plastic M&M menorah so badly I can taste it. I wonder if they have them on ebay?

What I want to know is whether US M&Ms are in fact kosher — what's the ingredient list?

[beckyzoole.livejournal.com]

I don't know what the ingredient list is, but US M&Ms are really, truly kosher -- certified by the Orthodox Union (http://www.ou-kosher.net/).

That menorah is awesome. I passed it on to Boing Boing, just in case no-one there has noticed it.

Bah... we've just been trained to see goatse everywhere these days. Well, at least we're not pointing at random fountains and geysers screaming "tubgirl!".

I eagerly await a Dave Langford story about a "goatse" basilisk.

8 years ago, just about, I had a toddler, a six week old baby, and more bills than money. I ended up in the hospital for four months, nearly died several times, and we had to pick up and move from New Orleans to Dallas. Needless to say, I sent them the balance of my paypal account, and if she doesn't mind being subsidized by an erotic stories site, I'd be happy to direct our donations this month that direction instead. What do you think?

Erotica Medical Insurance!

I think Karen (otterhill) would be proud to tell the gang at the next Poly Munch that she is being subsidized by an erotic stories site! :-)

I really wish I could do more for her; I have lots of social debt to return too. In the meantime, all I can do is thank you and everyone else who contributes from the bottom of my heart, and urge you to link to my appeal, and/or to otterhill's journal.

Thank you!
