assorted small noises

Here, more proof you can sell any old random crap on eBay. What am I selling? 25 year old audiocassette tapes. One set already has a bid. W00H00! Since the package graphics are intact, I'm selling them as potential art bits or movie props or something a retro band might enjoy.

And on the subject of silly, brazilrascal does not like The Simple Life. Mmmmmm, that's some good rant!

Sunday, I was mostly lame. I posted the eBay auction and cleaned about the house a little and got pictures off the camera. And posted a CWU, of course. Also, I dreamt a horse dream, where I had a pony. Apparently, when asleep, I am 12.

Here's a tasty baste for chicken you're going to grill; I invented it last night for dinner:

¹/₃C soy sauce (Yamasa is good)
¹/₃C rice vinegar (Seasoned is good)
3 gloves crushed garlic
3T sugar
1T sesame oil
¹/₂t chili paste
a whole bunch of mixed (red, white, black) pepper, ground up small - to taste, but I'd guess about ¹/₂t, maybe a little more.

Mix baste well, to dissolve all the sugar. Then lightly score chicken breasts and baste for 10 minutes, flipping breasts a few times and brushing to make sure you get a good coating. Keep some separate to apply on chicken after you've got it on the grill, too.

Thank goodness you're not selling old stereo equipment or CB radios. My dad would probably bid on them and that would piss off my mom.

Old stereo equipment, eh?

Don't even think about it, or I'll roll an elf-eating orc and go on a rampage.

My father has a colelction of -original- Peanuts books from the late 60s. I've been curious as to how much they would fetch...but I doubt it'd cover the hospital bill after he butchered me with a soy sauce bottle for selling his prized comics.

I bet if you search for them on eBay, you'll find copies already up for auction. It's a good way to figure out reasonable market prices.
