And an "l" because the clocks need them!

Tlick tlock.

Dling dlong.

It's Sylvester (the cat). I want my shtick back.

[Félix]

Say it, don't spray it.

Oooooh, good point, Cynthia.

[Sally, la reina]

*writhes*

I spent 20 of it on cute Leah clothes. I might get a pedicure with the rest. Or haircolor done.

[Sally, la reina]

No. Clams = dollars.

I was given 100 smackers and I don't know how to spend it. It has honestly been a while. I saw a very nice leather wallet which would be nice to touch every day.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Excellent point, Barb. Clams from Craigslist probably have bedbugs and gonorrhea.

[Jonathan]

Slightly used mollusks...still perky.

Steep discount.

[Sally, la reina]

Gross. Ok. I do not want to buy a "gently used" mattress, blanket or rug either.

But I am considering having my hair dreaded. Like, for real.

You just got a fancy new haircut. Said the voice of reason.

[Sally, la reina]

Yes, but it is sort of...crooked.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

I was preparing crimini mushrooms for dinner and a smell came wafting up from them. I won't say what the smell was, let's just say it starts with A and rhymes with grass.

That might be the angle at which you're holding your head.

[Sally, la reina]

Gross.

I get a direct noseful of poo several times a day.


I win.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

I would probably go with the wallet. It will last many years, or until you get pickpocketed.

Not to mention crabs.

I got a trundle bed for my daughter off craig's list for $100 clams yesterday. I'm pretty happy with it, even though it's got a few scratches and I apparently denied a bevy of stink bugs their chosen winter hide-out. It was offered with the mattresses included but I declined.

[Cynthia]

probably wise to say no to the mattress, Gretchen.

[Sally, la reina]

stink bugs! ew.

[smetchie]

Criag's list is funny.
I assume this guy meant to say that his girlfriend was a vegetarian. Sadly, it took me a while to work that out.

If you've ever worked for a veterinarian and know what's in the big freezer, that's a pretty scary ad!

[smetchie]

That's what I was thinking too Jammies! It took me several minutes of staring at it to go OH! Veggie Sausages! He doesn't mean veterinarian!

[Jammies]

Veggie burgers, not frozen chihuahuas, such a relief!

[Aynge]

I didn't start using Craigslist until I heard Kevin & Bean reading Best Of Craigslist. Way too funny. Later I found my last two jobs there.

I just posted some (cooking) pots on it. The first two buyers showed up. They were both men. The last one, a female, stood me up. Figures. She was trying to haggle me to death.

Another nine guys from this area just got busted for soliciting prostitutes via craigslist. That's nearly thirty in the last year.

Strangest part of the story is that one of the guys is a fine, upstanding citizen of NEVADA, where prostitution is LEGAL. Why set up a blow job in St. George, of all places?

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Craigslist has always skeeved me a little. Part of it is I just don't like the name Craig. I would feel a little better if it was called Jamalslist, or something without a proper name in it. I feel like 80% of everything on there is a scam.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

I wonder who the original Craig is?

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Craig Newmark.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

He looks exactly like a Craig.

[Sally, la reina]

Oldmark by now.

[Phil]

Richmark.
