Craig and his wonderful list

craigslist ballston spa innThe good thing about Craigslist: It's a window into our fellow community members' wants, needs and aspirations. The bad thing about Craigslist: It's a window into our fellow community members' wants, needs and aspirations.


Good or bad, we'll let you decide...

Just your run-of-the-mill bear hunting booty call.

The modern world: we leave lost devices on so they can be found.

Found: love seat -- on 787.
