    He was at 125,000 hits yesterday, around $500 too. Looks like the publicity
    was good for him. Wonder if he'll get the $25k....

    Good stuff! Good luck to him. It's a noble quest for ball game tickets and
    beer!

    I particularly liked this quote:

    A lot of folks were asking me if I wear women's dresses a lot. I can
    honestly say that this is the first time I have ever donned female attire.
    It's also the first time I've been inside something feminine that didn't nag
    me to take out the garbage.

    Yup - beats him by a mile, not to mention several thousand feet!
    Wonder if the high heels helped with climbing? ;-P

    He was over 6,232,272 hits when I found the link.
    The auction was won, and had been won at $3,850.00
    Not bad for a $1200 dollar dress.

    Almost got back the $4000 for the ring, and he'd almost burned the thing.
    Just shows it's a weird world.

    My wife and I are still married, her wedding dress cost half that amount,
    but maybe I ought to go put it on, take some photos, and spin a long tale
    about how she ran off with the ring, maybe I'll make a few grand on it too.

    Reminds me of Robbie Williams, who once said: "I used to be in the Spice
    Girls. Well, two of them..."

    The wife would be so impressed. I guarantee she would love you even more
    if you did that. Just make sure you keep it a surprise.
