Lou Scheimer passed away on the 17th.
He's the animator who brought you Saturday morning gems like He Man and FAT ALBERT.
Then yesterday, I'm driving down a city street and pass a turquoise and white Nash Metropolitan. (One of the rare cars that was guessed as the originator of the fender thread).

I'm not sure what's going to happen next.

  How many times can you sell the exact same item without some one catching on. I buy gun parts here and on fleabay. Well I was looking around tonight and saw something odd. A seller has the exact same parts lot for sale here and on fleabay. No big deal you say but I have bid on these auctions in the pat and been outbid each time. They went to another higher bidder each time. Again you say no big deal. But I'm not talking about similar items or duplicates but exactly the same parts lot. I checked the guys past auctions He has listed the same auction at least 5 times on each site. each time it sold with a bidder with little or no feedback.
  So either this guy has truly rotten luck with buyers or he's shilling his own auctions.

  An unrated seller has the same revolver listed twice on GB with different pics and "Buy it now" prices:

  I think the second guy has just decided that he was willinng to take 500 kinkies less than he originally posted.
  Maybe he needs the moola... Obviously he is an inexperienced user. I don't really suspect foul play here... Do You?

  I use ebay and yahoo for all types of auction buys. You find yourself wondering if they use friends, other ISP names to up auctions. I make a bid on what I want to spend, if it goes higher I just saved money. Some people go way beyond the "buy now", then you see the same item, seller, a week later.
