George Bush's Watch on eBay

Post by Casey Burns »

Someone beat me to this! I was going to post a similar listing. My brother-in-law grew up 10 miles from the Albanian border in Thassalonika (Greece) and I am sure through him we could arrange a few contacts. I was just too busy making flutes and not paying attention to what really matters in this world!

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

Tell us something.: I've picked up the tinwhistle again after several years, and have recently purchased a Chieftain v5 from Kerry Whistles that I cannot wait to get (why can't we beam stuff yet, come on Captain Kirk, get me my Low D!)

I have had a Mickey Mouse watch for years, but the expandale wrist band was always pulling the hairs out of my arm, so I seldom wore it. I should get it up and running again just for the coolness factor. What's a bald wrist when there's fashion at stake?

I have a binary watch but it's stopped. Still, it's right 10 times a day.














I don't actually have a binary watch, although you can buy them. I just wanted to make a bad joke.

That's the trouble with binary jokes - they're sort of on again, off again. :roll:

Disregard this. I don't own a watch. I'm just posting this so I can pull it back up, look at the header line, and find out what time it is.

New questions are posted!!

Here's two good ones!
Q: Will this watch tell me the time in other states or only in Texas? I have no use for a watch that only runs on Texas time.

A: Unlike the electoral process, this watch will work in all states
Q: Will you trade the watch for a used Clinton Cigar?
A: All reasonable offers considered, so... No
HAHA!!!

Ebay has pulled the listing (maybe because the watch never really was lost).

Too bad, I'm sure I've got John Cameron Swayze's Timex somewhere around here.
