everyone loves a free cobra

I gave up trying to sell this on Craigslist.  No one even wanted to make an offer.

So today I listed it on Freecycle (you can read my previous post about Freecycle HERE).

Seven people wanted it.  Seven emails in thirty minutes. Can you believe it?

I gave him/her to the first person who emailed, Dawn, who said her husband would love it.  Well, Happy Valentine’s Day to Dawn’s hubby, because he’s getting a stuffed king cobra instead of a box of chocolates or a heart-shaped pizza.

She’ll be here any minute to pick it up, so I set it where she’d see it when she drives up.

In the meantime, I hope it’s scaring the you-know-what out of the local squirrel population.

    Yikes! Look out squirrels!
    What is it with Craig’s List? I listed my roll-a-way bed for $10. No takers. As soon as I listed it as free, I had eight emails.
