I wonder what it was like to live life when there was no money. Everyone just traded chickens for pigs and corn for wheat. And life was easy. Right now there is about 30 pounds of wild organic blueberries in my freezer, and if I could I would use those tiny balls of goodness to trade for all kinds of stuff. My next meal at Pei Wei or paying off the next out of control electric bill. July was a hot month…cost me 12 cups of blueberries.
Today I came across a story that truly defines the world we live in today. A guy posts on his blog that he is wanting to trade his red paper clip. He gets a response of 2 girls who want to trade a fish pen for the red paper clip. He goes on to trade the fish pen for a door knob. Which he then trades for a Coleman Camping Grill. The Grill is traded for a Generator which is then traded for a keg party. The determination in this guy is greatness. He is able to then trade the party for a used snow mobile. The snow mobile is traded for a free vacation which is then traded for a moving van which is then traded to get a recording contract. Unreal. The contract is then traded to get a year of free rent. The free rent is traded for an afternoon with Alice Cooper. That afternoon date is traded for a KISS snow globe. Seems like a dumb move but he’s able to trade the snow globe to Corbin Bernsen for a role in a movie. And that role in a movie is traded to get a house in Saskatchewan, Canada. Now that’s a great story. Read the full story HERE.
Sooo…anyone interested in a Weber Charcoal Grill? How about a Canon Rebel Camera w/lens (FILM)? Um, I have a framed puzzle of a Noah’s Ark print. Any takers? Oh! How about tuba lessons. I played a mean tuba back in the day.
