One Red Paperclip.

[swestrup]

A fellow montreal is trying to trade a single red paperclip for a new house. Not in a single go, mind you. He's trying to keep trading up until he gets a house. So far he's traded it all the way up to a snowmobile previously owned by a Quebec City radio personality.

I think that the good ol' days of barter are making a come back too.


That, and water is the new oil... that makes us the new iraq btw.


:D N

If we become the new Iraq, does that mean I get to have a harem?

Yes but it also means you get bombed by the USA. :P

[swestrup]

Hmm. Harem... Bombed... Harem... Bombed...

I'll have to think about that a bit!

40 virgins for everyone!

*giggles*

[swestrup]

Eh, virgins are overrated. I far prefer the ladies who already KNOW what they're doing. That way you don't have to go into tedious explanations of what the trapeze or the crotchless wetsuit are for...

That's 40 Virgins who know nothing of the pleasure of the flesh first hand... but have been bequeathed with divine knowledge... I would take the latter any day... over someone with more mileage than a 74 VW Beetle. *wink*

I've been enjoying following the trades since I saw the paperclip on the montreal craiglist barter section back at the start of it all.
