Free Ralph Lauren Perfume--Careful, it's haunted.

As I performed my daily scan of the free stuff list on craigslist, I came upon this listing. "Free Ralph Lauren Perfume--Careful, it's haunted." The posting read: Free bottle of Ralph Lauren perfume. It is haunted, though. You have been warned.

I kept that browser window up on my computer all day, unable to decide if I wanted to find out why it was haunted or if the mystery was half the fun. I thought about emailing it to several people. Unfortunately, before I could decide, the ad was flagged for removal. I mourned a bit. In any case, I love a creative ad extolling the virtues of an unwanted piece of garbage.

I saw it too! I had to click on it also. What was that all about.

Here's another random thing. I heard an advertisement on the radio for men who are having prostate problems. This particular pill they advertised will "Give nutrition to your prostate." Does a prostate need nutrition? Should it be on a strict diet? Does any of my parts need nutrition that I don't know about? Interesting and yes, random.

Hmmm...wonder what that was all about?

Preston has been saying "Addie" all day. Every little girl is now Addie...and apparently when my parents took Preston home from church yesterday he was pouting in the back seat saying, "Aaaaaddie! Aaaaaddie!" I think he has a thing for your daughter...
