News, Illinois-Shaped Corn Flake for Sale.

[Avengerfire]

I had a turd in my toliet this morning that looked like Blago. I saved it and put it in the freezer. I wonder how much someone would pay for that and who would buy it?

I guess they had to pull the auction, something about ebay's food clauses or something. They are relisting. It really does look like Illinois I think.

They had to pull the listing and they have relisted it as a coupon towards the real thing. Bidding is at $1,025 currently.

What really shocks me is the amount of people trying to sell the same thing!

It just sold for $1,350. I hoping the sellers do at least something good with at least part of the money. Like giving some to charity. I wonder what the buyer does for a living?

The buyer has a collection of Americana memorabilia or something like that, I beileve from Austin, Tx. Sounds like he has a museum of sorts. Sounds like a cool addition to his stuff.

Personally, I was impressed with the cornflake. Even the Fox River was represented. The topograpy even looked pretty accurate. Come on people, live a little!

The guy sent someone to pick it up by hand so it would not crack or crumble. I am sure some museum curators or librarians have skills in how to preserve and archive....cornflakes. I am sure its just like, old maps or something. It will probably get a little air tight case or something!

You're right I need to live a little. I'm going to the grocery store and buy every box of cornflakes available. Then I can spend my days spreading them on my dining room table looking for priceless gems. Just think what could be out there. Thin and fat Elvis, the Pope, Britney Spears with and without partner. Can you imagine what some people would pay for a cornflake with a map to Jimmy Hoffas grave? That's it for now I'm off to the store. See you next year. I'll be the new name on the billions list.
