It'a all easy.

I was on eBay today and sold a boatload of stuff.

Who would buy this stuff? I saw an ad for those silly Anaheim Angels Cheer stix that everyone hates. At the Devils games they have been giving those idiot things out at the door all season.

5 bucks on eBay. I got 'em unopened all over my floor here.

Or what about this? A guy who knows how to sell sells Game 2, Upper Deck, in the corner, for two seats.......he is bid 600 to 900 bucks for these seats.

Look somewhere else, there is a guy who wants to sell 4 Series seats, also in the upper decks but on the Red Line.........he cannot get a guy to bid 0.01 for them.

I did not have the heart; I P-Mailed the guy and told him I could not bring myself to pay just a penny for four seats through the playoffs.

Hell, I have season tickets on the ice and Stanley Cup cost me $250 for both. Jesus would strike me dead for taking spare Upper Deck for the Cup at a penny for four for the entire run.

I sent the kid an e-mail and told him to tell me what he thought would be fair and I would take the seats. I was just going to give them to whoever wanted them. The dope never responded; he probably sold them on eBay for 20 cents or whatever.

Guess he thought I was trying to screw him. He was probably from South Jersey.

Speaking of which....I took Killer to the State Freestyle Championships last weekend. Yeah, he won....not the point.

You should see this school. It's across the river from Philly. It butts up to a Mobil Refinery. On the football field is a flying horse as the school logo.

Now, you and I are not that far apart in age. You know why that flying horse is there; how obvious is that?
