Hold up. A miraculous image of the Virgin and $60 in ebay bucks? I need to think about this.

Will be keeping an eye on that - Westward Ho! beach is backed by the Pebble Ridge, consisting of several hundred thousand sea-rounded rocks with similar patterns on most of them.

 

I suppose I should get out there and start using my imagination.

 

Damn, its dark now. Maybe tomorrow.

There are like ten thousand Saints, right? With that many rocks near the beach you'll be able to collect the whole set.

Here are eBay's Fall 2012 Seller category updates which includes a list of the newly prohibited items:

"The following items are also being added to the prohibited items list: advice; spells; curses; hexing; conjuring; magic; prayers; blessing services; magic potions; healing sessions; work from home businesses & information; wholesale lists, and drop shop lists."

"Good as it is to inherit a library, it is better to collect one."

- Augustine Birrell

.

Healing sessions?  Well, that wording will be challeneged instantly by some doctor's lawyer.

So no more offering of advice or prayers in an eBay item.

 

Isn't the Bible a tome filled with mostly advice and prayers?

 

And just about every other religion's equivalent.

 

Hmmm. Are eBay looking to get themselves issued with a 'fatwa', I wonder. Better talk to Salman Rushdie about that first.

 

.

 

LOL.  What about all the new age books about this sort of stuff?  I guess it'll still be okay to sell books about potions, healings, fortune telling, astrology, out of body experiences, etc.  Some buyers pay a lot for these kinds of books.

Women are angels. And when someone breaks our wings, we simply continue to fly...on a broomstick. We are flexible like that.

I was thinking the eBay execs might seek his advice on places to hide as he found quite a few during his time with a fatwa hanging over him.

He's also a British citizen, but I think he might be going for the triple as he's now resident in the U.S. and employed as Distinguished Writer in Residence at an Atlanta university.

A preoccupation with the next world is a clear indication of an inability to cope credibly with this one. .

Rosaries and icons are physical objects with artistic and aesthetic qualities that complement their use as spiritual objects.  As such, I'm sure they will continue to be sold on eBay.

(Referring to the banned list, how could anyone "sell" prayers on eBay ... even before the ban?   Can you package a prayer in bubble wrap?)  

A lot of vodoo witch doctors are now sticking pins in their ebay dolls.  

When I read this remembering back, I almost missed some of the old BSBoard <s>clique </s><s>posse</s>old boardies.
