BEST LINES FROM THE CRAIGSLIST.ORG "BARTER" SECTION

"Statistician in Shadyside--you need?"

"Lawyer needs laptop!"

"if you help me get an ipod i will do everything i can for you"


It seems that nobody understand the concept of bartering very well, only the concept of need.

I, on the other hand, understand the barter system. So, here's what I've got:

Tacky dresses, empty cigarette boxes, a deathmobile, a love of capital letters, a new watch.

Here's what I need:

Sidewalk cafes, sunshine, full cigarette boxes, a plan for color coding my bedroom.
