Well, that was very cool :) I sold off my 3 m-o australorp pullets the other day (not very inspiring hatchery stock and I needed the room) which meant my new Aussie roo didn't have any playmates and I no longer needed him, so I put him on craigslist for free, which didn't work, so I threw in one of my older barred rock layers, too. Just got picked up by a young kid, maybe 22, 23, clearly working on his last shoestring, as a Christmas gift for his cousin (who I suspect doesn't have much more to work with and has kids). He's hoping she can hatch out more eggs and have a whole flock, so I gave him one of the Omaha Steaks coolers I got given last week and told him to come check out BYC for instructions

Somewhere in the state of Ohio some kids will be eating better next year :) That makes me happy!

Thats awsome =) things like this one person at a time can change the world.
 
Billionaire, no -- but when I'm a best-selling NYT novelist, I will buy the newest, most expensive import I can find and share like a madwoman!!! (Won't be hard...)

Go for another type of bestselling author. NY times only takes reporting from like 7 stores it is easy to screw with.
Not as corrupt as it once was, but still not a terribly good way to gauge sales.

OK back off my soapbox. Until, someone starts talking about the case Schiller index...

LOL! You're either a writer, publisher, or editor :) Or just more well-versed than most people about the publishing world! And I'm surprised -- that's kind of an odd combo with the Case-Shiller index ;-) What do you do that you happen to know about both?

I use "NYT bestseller" when talking generally about my aspirations because it's immediately recognizable ;-)
