Craig and his wonderful list

craigslist wild boar head mountThe 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...

"We are quick and efficient and wear your outfit of choice." Can you guess the service?

"My ride got kicked out of the bar before I could get your number." Hate that.

His entire month was made by... sweatpants failure.

Sometimes the hand of fate is a bum.

What girl wouldn't be interested in "megalomaniac excess."

It sounds like she could watch him make pizzas all night.

She lives next door to unbelievable blue eyes.

In the modern world, construction workers don't whistle -- they post on Craigslist. And sometimes it's the women posting.

Who attaches a valued, antique chalkboard to a street pole? And who steals it?
