I just heard the guy in the next cube say that the entire State of West Virginia was for sale on Ebay. Apparently the bidding got up to $100M before those spoilsports cancelled the auction. Apparently there's some kind of rule against selling things you don't actually own, or something. Go figure.

Well.... actually the power to do that wasn't included as part of the package.
