Find me the person who invented E-Bay…
…and I will abandon my previous commitment to commit hari kiri before allowing another child to pass through my pelvis. Yes, I would get pregnant again. Just so I could name the baby after the founder.
Or at least I’d offer to wash his or her car.
Normal people stop here. Runners, read on. What I’m about to tell you will make you think Body Glide was a yawn of an invention:

Ladies and gentlemen? I give you the world’s finest running shoe. One that normally retails for $135… and I snagged a pair on E-Bay for $41.
Yes, you really are looking at a pair of brand new Asics Gel Kayanos. In the box. Never worn. 14s even, so you know they’re not a part of somebody’s failed New Year’s resolution from back in 1998.
Fleet Feet had better prepare for layoffs because I’m diverting my rather substantial running shoe fund to E-Bay.
** Addendum for my dearest commenter Alice:
14 is the shoe’s “edition” designation and not my size. Last year the latest Kayano was a 13, this year it’s 14, next year will be 15…. you dig?
In other words: I do NOT have big feet!
For someone who is six feet tall.
Thank You,
Management
