No Dinner! How Much?

This is the text of an auction I just posted on eBay, thanks to inspiration from my friend Jim at Velvet Blog (link at left).

*Auction Title:

NO DINNER with Sarah Palin

Subtitle: Yes, you DON'T HAVE TO GO TO DINNER WITH SARAH PALIN!

Description: Hello,

I recently had a chance to not have dinner with Sarah Palin. I didn't even know who she was until my friend Jim pointed her out to me on his blog. Hey, I'm Canadian! I was amazed to realise that she lives in the 54th Canadian province, Alaska! (Well, Alaska, but what good would it do? She'd turn me down).

ANYWAY! This is your chance because I'm giving up mine. Yes, you read it right -- I am offically offering up for bid a chance to NOT HAVE DINNER WITH SARAH PALIN. No, no, no, I ain't gonna do any "Buy It Now"s. I want to give you very pleasant folk a chance to BID because EVERYONE, even the poor, deserve a chance to not have dinner with Sarah Palin.

I missed my ticket to not have dinner with Sarah Palin.

BUT

My loss is your gain! FREE S&H to N. America

Happy bidding!
