I'm not sure there's enough space here for me to write a proper and thorough testimonial to my beloved. This is a man who walked into a family 13 years ago and took it on as his own. He's kind, generous, intelligent and funny. He takes care of business, his friends, and above all, his family. He's honest and devoted and my life would not be the same without him as part of it.
Thank you for being you, Jackal. And thank you for being you..with me.

Ah Jackal, a man of rapier wit and boundless humor. I’ve enjoyed getting to know him and his good family. There have been many times when his humorous postings on Pnet (our old posting home) had me howling with laughter in my office. Besides the humor you can tell this is also a man who takes care of his own, be they friends or family. He’s a rock that many rely on and justly so.

When Morrison channels through me

To sum up, last February was atrocious. eBay raised their FVF (final value fees), changed up the Feedback system so sellers can't leave anything but positives for buyers. Know how many scamming buyers there are out there? Like one in ten. Anyway, my monthly fees were about $200 - $300/month. Now, with the new FVFs, it'll raise it up to around 68%. I can't afford that. My sell through rate is not that good. Sometimes it takes weeks to sell something.

Anyway, there was an eBay strike... read more

The first thing Azhrde and I would do is buy a home with lots of land... 30 or more acres. We'd next open up for fostering Rescued Great Danes, maybe shepherds too. I'd also like to open up a community garden area where underprivileged kids get to come and till/plant/care for a garden of their creation, be it vegetable, flower or any other. I'd even have a pond/small lake area where they can learn fishing skills, water gardening, etc. We'd teach about wildlife, preservation, etc. There'd be b... read more

OK, so my intention was to win a Mosser vaseline glass oil lamp on eBay to use at my Green Fairy absinthe party next August. So in searching for them, I notice that most are selling for between $90 and $125 each for a 14" daisy and fern pattern, and upward of $100-$150 for other patterns in the 18" style.

In finding several on eBay for low prices (under $50) I placed a bid on one of the 14", then a bid on an 18". I was soon outbid on both. Later that day I found another 14" daisy and f... read more

I need to make room for the new stuff I plan to buy up this fall. I'm planning on hitting a megaload of estate sales to restock my inventory on eBay. In the mean time, I gotta get rid of everything I have. I mean, there's only so much room to store all this in a 10x10 room and the wife is sick of everything on the dining room table (my photographing area and staging area for eBay).

So, here's what's listed currently:

Steven Wright is one of my favorite comedians. The kind that makes you tilt your head like a dog who's been asked "Go for a ride?"... Enjoy-


- Women should put a picture of their missing husbands on beer cans.

- If a person with multiple personalities threatens suicide, is that considered a hostage situation?

- I was in the supermarket the other day, and I met a lady in the aisle where they keep the generic brands. Her name was 'woman'.

- Is "tired old cliche" one?

- When I w... read more
