Chicken tractor coopChicken tractor coop - $400 (Norfolk)
Date: 2009-10-20, 3:16PM EDT
It retails at $499. You won't be able to build as safe or convenient a coop for less. I've already assembled it and it can be transported on a pick-up truck bed.
You don't need anything except chickens and chicken feed. Perfect for city folks who have a backyard.
I'm selling this one because I'm getting their new Tuf-Climate Coop. Email me if you are interested or have questions.

just looking for a portable hoop to pass time.trade a box of steaks for it
 |
Because it's time for me to get off of my butt and start hitting the gym. These are good steaks - they only thawed out once.
Here is a great post supplied by Terri:
OK, let me start off by saying this Xterra is only available for purchase by the manliest of men (or women). My friend, if it was possible for a vehicle to sprout chest hair and a five o'clock shadow, this Nissan would look like Tom Selleck. It is just that manly.
It was never intended to drive to northstar mall so you can pick up that adorable shirt at Abercrombie & Fitch that you had your eye on. It wasn't meant to transport you to yoga class or Bath & Body Works. No, that's what your Prius is for. If that's the kind of car you're looking for, then just do us all a favor and stop reading right now. I mean it. Just stop.
This car was engineered by 3rd degree ninja super-warriors in the highest mountains of Japan to serve the needs of the man that cheats death on a daily basis. They didn't even consider superfluous nancy boy amenities like navigation systems (real men don't get lost), heated leather seats (a real man doesn't let anything warm his butt), or On Star (real men don't even know what the hell On Star is).
No, this brute comes with the things us testosterone-fueled super action junkies need. It has a 265 HP engine to outrun the cops. It's got special blood/gore resistant upholstery. It even has a first-aid kit in the back. You know what the first aid kit has in it? A pint of whiskey, a stitch-your-own-wound kit and a hunk of leather to bite down on when you're operating on yourself. The Xterra also has an automatic transmission so if you're being chased by Libyan terrorists, you'll still be able to shoot your machine gun out the window and drive at the same time. It's saved my bacon more than once.
It has room for you and the four hotties you picked up
on the way to the gym to blast your pecs and hammer your glutes.
There's a tow hitch to pull your 50 caliber anti-Taliban, self cooling
machine gun. I also just put in a new windshield to replace the one
that got shot out by The Man.
My price on this bad boy is an
incredibly low $10,900, but I'll entertain reasonable offers. And by
reasonable, I mean don't walk up and tell me you'll give me $5,000 for
it. That's liable to earn you a Burmese-roundhouse-sphincter-kick with
a follow up three fingered eye-jab. Would it hurt? Hell yeah. Let's
just say you won't be the prettiest guy at the Coldplay concert
anymore.
There's only 69,000 miles on this four-wheeled hellcat from Planet Kickass. Trust me, it will outlive you and the offspring that will carry your name. It will live on as a monument to your machismo.
Now, go look in the mirror and tell me what you see. If it's a rugged, no holds barred, super brute he-man macho Chuck Norris stunt double, then contact me. I might be out hang-gliding or BASE jumping or just chilling with my ladies, but I'll get back to you. And when I do, we'll talk about a price over a nice glass of Schmidt while we listen to Johnny Cash.
To sweeten the deal a little, I'm throwing in this pair of MC Hammer pants for the man with rippling quads that can't fit into regular pants. Yeah, you heard me. FREE MC Hammer pants.
Rock on.

Carmen Electra Stripper pole - $100 (hampton)
Date: 2009-07-28, 11:16AM EDT
I have this carmen electra pole that my husband bought for me 2 months ago. It's just taking up space in my closet being that I never use it. It sells for $150 in stores, but I am asking $100 for it. If interested please call Hilary. Thank you!
Sounds like a failure to communicate. Wait, there's the problem right there - someone installed it in the closet.

WANTED: ROADKILL (summer edition)
WANTED: ROADKILL (summer edition) (Hampton Roads)
Date: 2009-07-05, 8:49PM EDT
Point is, after a brief stint in the Middle East defending freedom, I'm back, and I need meat. And heck, you probably need some too. So, the rules for this summer are:
1. If you hit a deer or larger animal, call me at xxx-xxx-xxxx. If no one answers, call back in 10 minutes, I might be outside playing with the dog.
2. I will come out and pickup the animal, or alternatively, you could meet me halfway (if your car/truck/scooter is still functioning)
3. I'll slaughter the animal and give you half the meat, in vacuum sealed bags. If you want, you can help me, or watch, or simply depart the area if you are too fickle. I do not care.
Now, why on earth would you, a self-respecting person who just happened to occupy the same space-time point as an unfortunate animal, take me up on this offer? Well, for starters, its legal. You hit a deer and kill it, you get to keep it (kind of a throwback to The Chronicles of Riddick). Secondly, its not going to eat itself. Buzzards, wild dogs, and nasty little microbes with funny Latin names will consume it if you don't.
You may say to yourself, "Self, it would be disgusting to eat an animal off the road. I will buy my meat from a grocery store!" To that I will say, is it REALLY that safe? The meat you buy probably comes from a cow that came from an overcrowded, stinking beef farm, fed a corn, steroid and antibiotic diet to grow fast, then packaged in a massive facility by people that may or may not have washed their hands. You have NO idea whats in that package of beef. The recalls on everything from peanut butter to beef should tell you otherwise.
In contrast to this grim picture, you just watched the animal die in front of you, sacrificing itself so that you could experience the joys of filing an automobile insurance claim. You then hand it over to me, where I allow you to watch me butcher the animal if you so choose (heck, you can even help!). I won't hide anything from you. But lets say you are the squeamish type. That's ok, because I'm eating the same animal. Yes sir/m'am, I take half the kill, and feed myself and my family with it. If its not good enough for me, my wife, or any of my guests, I won't let you eat it either.
And, now that you have some moral justification, think about price: beef costs anywhere from 4-8 dollars a pound. Average deer is about 100 pounds dressed out. So, I am handing you about $300 dollars of food. And I don't even charge for the bags! I bet I would save you more money on your grocery bill than a certain lizard will on your car insurance claim (no fault of his own).
So, call me at xxx-xxx-xxxx. If you're a state or local police officer, write down my number and call me if you get called to a deer-homicide scene. There is no shame, guilt, or any reason to hesitate from consuming an animal that just happened to connect with your engine block. Be quick about it, since meat spoils fast in the summer!
Yumm-o!

"Yes, be the envy of your crazy redneck neighbors!" I like that they included extra springs - you never know when you'll have a spring just blow apart.

Remember - if you get something in the mail that you didn't order, you can keep it and not pay (Peg Bundy)
First off, Jamie had the most awesome fondue party for me. It started off with cheese then we had a meats section and then this fantastic chocolate with fresh fruit, cookies and cake section. I know you don't call fondue "sections" - I guess I could call it courses. It was still great. We ended up getting a new fondue pot because our old one was really an electric wok and it had finally bitten the dust. I'm glad, because I like the new one a lot more.
Gifts? Yep, I have a couple of nice new things. Jamie bought me a copy of Mad Men season one - which is cool since I see they won the Emmy last night. We've only seen one episode of season two, so this will be a blast. She also bought me two new games for the Nintendo DS - one is Brain Age 2 - which I'll need now that I'm racing down the hill. The other is called CrossworDS - (get it, DS??) I love it because it has find a word puzzles and I like those.
Donna bought me Get Smart season one - ahhh - 20+ episodes of goodness. I was tucking in Nathan a while ago and mentioned it and he didn't even realize what it was yesterday when I opened it. Now he's all excited. That might be something we can watch in the mornings occasionally. Jamie also bought me a new set of headphones for my mp3 player so I can once again mow grass while listening to Leo Laporte on a podcast.
Oh - and the craigslist people wrote me back. The guy we were supposed to meet left me a note that his phone was lost or something and asked me if I was still interested. That's too bad because I'd already called another guy who is a LOT closer to our house. We ended up meeting him tonight and I am no longer bike-less. This is a nice 26" mountain bike for only $50. Here's the image from Craigslist:
I think the complete shadow helps sell it. Nathan and Jamie both pointed out the water bottle holder as if it were a major accessory. I'll convert it into a tea holder. I pumped up the tires and rode it around the yard a bit before locking it up in the garage. Now I'm all overkill on keeping it under lock and key. Tomorrow we'll go looking for a new bike for Nathan since (1) he turns his nose up at used bikes and (2) the last brand new one I bought him only cost $30, so it should work out.
That's the show so far. Thanks again for all the great birthday (and ham!) wishes.
We agreed to meet on Saturday morning at 11 about half-way between our places since he's out in Va Beach. I arrived on time and then called to see exactly where at the mall he was - but no answer. And again. And again. Then I sent him an email with my number just in case his phone was broken. Maybe he fell into a sink-hole of some kind?
We opted for Pho instead and meanwhile also went to a Caribbean grocery that we found. In there, I was surprised to see that even though I'm not IN other countries, my name is.
When we got home, I sent an email to yet another person. No reply yet. I wonder about the people using Craigslist - do they go to the public library and post their stuff and then maybe next week you'll get back to them?
I sale my bike because of I leave here.
I don't wanna so much money, it's coast is just 30$.
I am here until wednesday morning, in this time you can have it.It is 26', girl and men can use it, but it is a little high bike really. I bought a lock for it to 13$, I give it too...
It has a small problem, it's gear's hawser needs to change...
My adress: 716 21st street Quality inn hotel room#:303 Virginia beach,VA
I saw this - and couldn't resist talking about it. It's a steal at only $75!! even though it "Could use new tires and a little polishing"
Flat tires too? Maybe you could buy this and just put it in your collection of old junk bikes.
I'd consider it, but I spend all my polishing hours on silverware and cars - no bikes.
So that's the show so far. I'm still looking, but pickings are slim at best. I may decide to pick up a local trading post just to see what's in there, but it seems like people obviously (like me) think their stuff is worth a lot more than it is. I have two browsers open - one on CL and one on Google so I can look up the bikes.
Clue - if you want $100 for your bike and the first "Customer Review" at Walmart or Target is "This bike SUCKS!" - then you might have trouble selling it.
I'm just saying.
