Craig and his wonderful list

craigslist nigora goatBack from its August hiatus...

The 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...

"I hope you know that this night we shared in stolen glances was not wasted."

From the Place Beyond the Place Beyond the Pines: "As you ran, the loose, wispy curls of your hair wreathed your face, all laughing eyes and rosy skin. The sunlight hit them just so and for a moment we stood there breathless."

His co-worker really needs to find a new major.

She dressed for the cable the guy.

"You also told me you love socks. Maybe we can mix and match?"

The Polish cowboy has been thinking about her.

His shirt reminded him of cucumbers.

He was kicking himself for leaving the laundromat.

You know, you'd probably had a better chance if you stopped to help.

Hope for a miracle after a Megabus ride.

His eye was caught by a HOTMESS.

He's "sort of intrigued" by jail.

The going rate for topless gardening is $20/hour, apparently.

Goalie needed, will train.

i love how sometimes you'll see someone selling a pair of pliers or a screwdriver for $5. i'm all for making money, but is $5 worth the inconvenience of arranging a CL meeting, hoping the person shows, then hoping they're interested, etc.?

That seems like the going rate for a regular, clothed gardener...

i need to find a loop hole to the ban on farm animals in troy (except chickens)...I want a goat. I think my dog would love a goat playmate.
