A collection of thoughts and asides about life. And if I think of anything that needs to be mocked, it will show up here.
"If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way."
--Bertrand Russell
My eBay Principle
I have been selling my comic collection on eBay. I've noticed something That I call the eBay Principle:
If I want to buy an item, it will cost more than twice what I can get selling the same item.
It is similar to my Shopping Principle: If I want to buy an item, no one in town carries it. As soon as I buy it in another town, every store has twenty of the item at a cheaper price.
I guess I'm just not a savvy shopper or eBay seller.
