More signs of the times...

Someone has put the financially failing country of Iceland up for auction on eBay's UK site:

"Located in the mid-Atlantic ridge in the North Atlantic Ocean," the item reads, "Iceland will provide the winning bidder with — a habitable environment, Icelandic Horses and admittedly a somewhat sketchy financial situation." Apparently Bjork is not part of the purchase price.

NEXT, SELL ALASKA
My friend, blogger Jason Jepson, www.rewashednews.blogspot.com suggests to fix our financial woes we sell off our largest state:

--"Will be bought for $10 trillion buy Saudi Arabia for oil reserves. We take the money, dump it into the economy, banks, social security - and there will be no PORK!"

--"Might as well sell it to a country that does not care about the environment, will drill the hell out of it and create the Dubai of the north!"

--"We throw in Sarah Palin." (Jason, I guess we know how you're voting.)

--"We can’t sell Wall Street because we need to sell income producing assets."

HOLD BEVERLY HILLS
The LA Times has this photo showing a house for sale in ritzy Coldwater Canyon for $1.36 million, but the price will go down $10,000 every Friday. So why buy today? Interesting, the phone number has a South Florida area code.

HOLD ONTO YOUR HUSBAND
This warning arrived in my email from www.firstwivesworld.com:

"The Dow is Down, Men Cheating is Up--Women Beware!!!"

Well, the only solution to that is...plastic surgery! However, Datamonitor tells us that plastic surgeons are seeing only a small increase in Botox and other filler treatments.

Breast augmentation surgeries, however, are sagging--down sharply. Oh, come on! Now I'm really depressed.
