I would like to meet the person who purchases that for $20,000. I think I may have some things to sell them!

Talking Bridge for sale...

Ok, you millionaire Airstream owners... the deal of the century...

I represent the owners of this "Red Bridge" as seen in this famous Vintage Airstream photo. The owners have recently fallen on hard times as a result of a financial debacle involving the wholesale and retail costs of electricity. The current head of the 'corporation' is facing a recall election and wants to liquidate as many of the corporate assets as possible to stave off a hostile takeover by another political party.

In any event, this bridge is in excellent condition being well maintained over the years. It spans a notable waterway in a very popular area of the country.

The owners of this bridge, as represented by yours truly are willing to transfer ownership to you for just $20,000 (or offers)and we accept PayPal. This is your opportunity to own a piece of Airstream ephemera for a VERY reasonable price. Just think, for the same price as some photos of somebody's old Airstream, you can own this piece of Airstream history!

Sorry, Jerry... while we accept PayPal, we only accept PayPal checking account transfers, no credit cards. Or a wire transfer from your bank to mine would be perfectly acceptable. In this day of off-shore fraud, one can't be too careful about how your money is transferred!

Talking Bridge For Sale

I wish you had posted this last week, Roger. As it happens, I just purchased a bridge from a guy in Brooklyn this week.


PS- I hear Arnold owns an Airstream. Tows it with a Hummer. Maybe he'll let us take Polaroids of it!

PSS- the headline: "Arnold Buys a Hummer" has a whole new meaning out here this week!

Yes, Tom, that bridge would have been offered last week by my late cousin Vinny who apparently had a disagreement with some OTHER faction of the mob in the Boroughs. An unfortunate affair indeed.

Since I have one offer already on the "Red Bridge" from Jerry, I'm pleased to report that for those of you interested in historic real estate, there may be a quality property that the same party may be making available in the next couple of weeks.

Yes, it's true... this is a photo of the California Governor's mansion as it appeared in 1923. It is my understanding that although the building no longer stands, and that there is a memorial wall (something about VietNam Veterans... but don't let that put you off...) on the current grounds, the current occupant of that position, again as a result of these current unfortunate circumstances, may be willing to part with this building. (or at least the site it once stood on...) Make us an offer!

How much for just a brick? I know you have a pile of them and don't really want the upkeep of a memorial site. OTOH, if I used that as an address I could enter the race for governor.

I'd buy the bridge, but of course only if Tom Hanks drove his airstream across it! ('')

Not you, the crackhead seller of the Tom Hanks photos... We all already know your mindsets.

That said, even at a 25% discount....the seller needs a reality check.....

You know, modern pharmocology being what it is today...no one has to suffer from these episodes....$15k for a bunch of photos.....
