everybody's on ebay

There are more people who are making their livings by selling their shit than you might imagine. I know one person, ahem, who just sold her wedding silver on eBay for like $2000 plus. Me, I've been looking at my book collection and thinking that perhaps my Robin Hood obsession is in the past. And then Hannah found this little volume in our collection. Anybody for a book signed by Maurice Sendak? Ok, it's not Where the Wild Things Are and it's well loved, but hey!

  1. You have fine things of the word, I sell these fine things for Lady.

    Li is Master of Li-Bay in Nepal.

    Li will send yaks to get this Sherwood hero.

    What is wild? Li is wild. If only Li were loved.

  2. Mr. Li??? Is it really you? I somehow thought you had died and your niece (I forget her name) had taken over your business. In any case you must be getting on in years. Perhaps you have learned wisdom?

  3. Hah! Li is no older than Lady.

    Li, however, is wiser.

    Now, in addition to massive retail business of LiBay Li has created in Nepal, Li is movie star of first film, World War Li, which break box office record in India.

    Li has happiness of wife and star-also, Mei Tai Niu Niu, and many children, some adopt, some born to Li and Mei Tai.

    Ah, Lady. All this could have been your fortune, but no!

    Courtni wish to know if she can stay at Lady's apartment for fortnight next week.

    She says is thing "to do".

  4. Thank you for your offer of help on LiBay (I think), but I imagine bibliophile sites would work better for the literate, English speaking public. Ahem.
    Please send me a pirated Chinese version of your movie. All best to Mei Tai Niu Niu and LiKids. Since niu means cow, I assume your beloved wife resembles one. She must, if she has all those children! I would invite you to visit our Great American Eating Ceremony, but you just missed it and besides I don't think we have that many chairs.
    As for Courtni (ah, yes, Courtni), solliLi! No have room until the year 2030.
    Happy HoLIdays!
