Speaking of weddings.... have you seen the ijit on eBay who is auctioning
the chance to be her bridesmaid to help offset the cost of her wedding?!
The auction I looked at on Sunday is apparently closed, but for a mere
starting bid of $5000 you could travel to Maryland (travel and accomodations
not included) where you'd be provided with a dress, shoes and oh yes, you
could bring a guest to her reception. WTF? There are more of these
auctions out there with various starting bids. These people are deadly
serious! Well, except for the guy who put up a spoof auction in response
Just go to eBay and search for "Be a Bridesmaid" if you don't believe me.
Guess none of these folks ever heard of the courthouse and a party
