Bizarro World
At my work today, we're having an internal auction to raise money for the organization. People cleaned out their garages, houses, etc, and brought whatever was salvagable to be auctioned off. The auction is by video conference between DC and Chicago and it's a loooong affair. There is some neat stuff (a weekend at any Hilton in Chicago), some good stuff (Cubs tickets), some random stuff (a coat hanger holder?), and some odd (a Jesse Ventura governor action figure doll).

My boss's boss who is this very tasteful, stylish man, showed his team spirit by engaging in a heated bidding war over a Precious Moments figurine. He paid $70 for it. When they announced him the winner, he said "Now that truly is a precious moment."
