2011 WSOP Main Event Thread
For Trade:
Neoprene Laptop Sleeve
I started to tell a few select friends about my wacky idea to get into the WSOP main event. Donna liked it and tried hard
to come up with something to get me underway. After several rejections, she offered me a neat laptop sleeve as shown here.
Now, as far as laptop sleeves go, this one has to be one of the best. She showed me where you can
get one at Staples for $38.
As you can see, as of the date that I made the trade, Staples is out of stock. You better hurry up and trade for mine! :)
This sleeve is in pretty good shape. You cannot tell that it has even been used! As a matter of fact, I think that Donna
bought it and saved it for an opportunity just like this one. The other neat thing is that it is made of neoprene - the
same stuff wetsuits are made from. So, if you ever went scuba diving, you might be able fire up your laptop and stream neat
webcam pics of the sharks swimming around you. I am not sure how good the internet connection would be under water, and I
don't think I would try that though.
So, now I have for trade, a way cool neoprene sleeve that you could use to carry around your laptop! Who wants to trade for it?

A solved Rubik's Cube®
I will even let you send it back as many times as you want for ONE YEAR to be solved again! 
One day, I was at a yard sale with my wife. I spied one of my favorite childhood toys - a Rubik's Cube®! I picked it up and the guy who was running the yard sale said, "Hey, if you can solve it, I will give it to you."
I am not one to refuse a challenge. Amused, my wife told him to give me a few minutes, and it would be solved. As I turned the sides of the cube, all the right sequences came back to me. It was like I never took a break from my childhood. After about three minutes of thinking, and twisting, the final solution came into place. Triumphantly, I held the cube in front of me - all six sides had their respective colors. The Rubik's Cube® was solved. With a smirk on my face, I showed the owner. He shook his head in approval, and said, "Alright, it is yours".
And that is how I came into possession of the Rubik's Cube®.
