Words For My Enjoyment

As promised, today WFME will be giving away three (3) free copies of Paul Meadors’ new book Letters to eBay.

But how, you wonder, can you win one?

Present a link in the comments section to what you consider to be the most obscure, most amusing eBay auction currently “live” on eBay (i.e., people can still bid on it at the publishing of this post) before 5pm PST and you’ll have entered yourself in for the contest. Each person is only allowed one (1) submission, and I will award the books to the Top 3 most amusing eBay auctions.

We’re talking funny, people. Show me the funny.

In the event two people submit the same auction, the person who posted their comment first will get priority. In addition, if you have put up the auction yourself, it is invalid. Finally, if you have ever watched Big Brother After Dark on Showtime, please make a note of it in the comments section, as you will be added to WFME’s list for another upcoming contest that will be announced very soon.

Good luck and G-d speed!

Update! The winners of the books are Mike Lietz, Jerry and Monkeyinabox. Congratulations!
