Autographed Jesus Picture

So, my folks were out for the night, and I thought, what better way to enjoy freedom then to watch the Jay Leno Show. Anyway, after the rather funny monologue (and the commercial break), there was a section aptly named "Stuff we found on EBay." This was, apparently, a collection of genuine items found by the producers (or whoever) whilst on EBay.

Examples included:
Pope Benedict XVI's old VW (approx. $200,000 US)

A $20 bill once touched by a naked woman (no bids)

A Dorito shaped like the Pope's hat (approx. $1,200 US)

And my personal favourite, a signed picture of Jesus (approx. $40 US)

So, basically, what I'm getting at (after I stopped laughing) is would any of you fine NS posters bid for this stuff? Any of it?

Of course I wouldn't. I would, however, put things like that up for auction :p.

No-one for the autographed picture of Jesus? Strange... I thought that a couple of people would be dying to bid for something like that...

How could no one bid on the $20? Was the minimum bid $20?

Nope, no bids... but surely, someone could have cashed in and bought it for a couple of bucks... but then there's postage and handling.

But you're still looking at a profit!!!

There is a "Fart in a jar" up for grabs on E-bay. It must be true that everything does have a price. :rolleyes:

About two years ago, Canada was up on Ebay. it got taken down though. The grilled cheese sandwich with Jesus' image still makes me snicker. :)

Yeah, on the same section where I saw the Jesus pic, there was also a piece of toast that aparently looked like the Runaway Bride* (not actually sure of name), and to all you Australians, there is also a piece of toast with Rove's face on it...
