1. Next thing you know people will start selling them too
"Looking for buyer, 3 yr. old, blond hair blue eyed pure white kid $500" or something like that.


That is awful to advertise a adoption in a wanted ad.

5. Looks perfect for eBay.
You could advertise that they're feee of ADHD, list their IQ, mention whether they've had all their shots, etc.

2. That IS crazy...
I've seen some weird stuff on our list, and it's a small list... people looking for pool tables, plasma TVs, just stuff that almost no one would be looking to give away. I'd say our list is 60/40 Wanted/Offered, most days. :(

4. Ours is usually populated with...
"Need 4-wheeler for my child. I have no money and no job and he will be devastated if he doesn't get one. I'm tired of hearing my child cry because I have no money.." :puke:

3. Someone on my local list accidentally sent everyone a long email
begging their boyfriend to get back together with them.
