What Do Princess Leia, a Four-Pound Nut, and a Styrofoam Peanut Have in Common?

They are all for sale on E-Bay.

See, E-Bay has this category, "Everything Else>Weird Stuff>Really Weird." Actually, most of it is disappointingly unweird. Much of it is of the lame, "If this is really wacky enough, maybe I'll make it into the Ananova Quirkies like that lady who had a potato chip with Mary on it" variety. I think there's potential to narrow down the categories further though, as in "Dadaist": the guy (girl?) who is selling the Princess and the Nut to raise money for breast cancer research. "Zen": The solitary styrofoam packing peanut (current bid: $2.00). "Freudian": The world's smallest Slim Jim. "The Ultimate in Marketing": Your own vagina. I'm not kidding. "Now you can own your own vagina," says the tagline. Well, maybe it's aimed at guys.

Jink,
Thrilled about the new post. Mostly coz i check your blog about 18 times a day and the Leiber-zombie (man zombie? lady zombie?) was imprinting on my brain in an almost deity like way.
