Don't bother looking - it's an eBay ad with a photo of a guy lying on top of a painted bicycle in the street and the price is 10 million GBP. The lack of cleverness is astonishing.

Jeez, didn't mean to come off as a "humour-deprived sorehead" - I figured it was a joke, but I was sorely disappointed. I figured I was doing you guys a favour.

At one point, there was a tandem painted on the street three blocks from my house. It dissappeared a
couple years ago. I wonder if the £20,000,000 ransom was too steep for the local government.

And it wasn't a Photoshop exploit, either. I just hope the folks at eBay can find the required sense
of whimsy to allow it to remain listed for a while, instead of taking it offline like they've done
with other such items. Once in a while, we *need* something silly to keep the serious stuff from
driving us nuts.

I would hate to have to pay the ebay fees on that auction.
