    For the last two day’s I have checked my emails, and there have been emails from wwdn only to find when I open them that they are junk emails… has this happened to anyone else.

    The bidders were probably other accounts owned by the same person or 5 or 6 of the seller’s drunk friends who had some loose change after their last binge drinking session.

    Hey my husband has one of those too! But he picked his up during the 90s grunge era. Oh, he also has a piano. It even fits on the dashboard of the car which is where he most likes to play it — when he’s driving and Ben Folds is on.

    No one has mentioned air dreadlocks for sale… I offer mine; I’ve only rocked to some good reggae, George Clinton, etc. but without Lenny Kravitz to guide me I am ready to part with them…

    I have a really nice set of air golfclubs here that I’d be willing to part with. I’ve won many a local tourney with these things. There are two drivers included, a fairly new putter, and various irons and woods. The bag contains all the pockets to carry all of the air accessories you will ever need. I will also throw in 100 air golf balls at no extra charge.
    I don’t think I will be needing my air Nascar either. I’ve often raced and beat the Nascar greats in this top of the line stock car. Dale Earnhardt Jr. hit me in my last race in North Carolina. I lost that race and I’ve not really had the money to repair the damage, so the right rear side needs some air work. Other than that it still runs like a dream and looks real good. If you want, I could use my air phone and give Dale Jr. a call and see if he will air-autograph the damaged area, but that will cost a bit extra…

    I love my air guitar! It even works in the shower! 10 bucks is a bit step for shipping though. They are made of air after all.

    Wil, I want to eat your brain and gain your powers of observation. I mean that in the best way possible.

    Hi Wil!
    My first comment. Cause I’m a shy loser who can’t bring herself to actually SAY anything to someone obviously more brilliant. Way off topic, ANYWAYS!
    If you liked the air guitar, have you seen the pretend girlfriends? HILARIOUS stuff!! For the guys who make ’em up from summer camp. I couldn’t find the link to the news article, so I guess you’ll just have to take my word on it, or go search it up. Sorry!

    Anne,
    Happy Mothers’ Day!! Hope Wil and the kids treated you to something nice; I’m sure they did. Tell Wil to give us a rundown of your day’s activities. Thanks so much. May love and peace be yours in abundance.
    Freeman 🙂

    That was just too funny!! And what’s even more hilarious is that it’s on ebay… and is an actual auction… and someone actually won it. LOL
