Don't kill the messenger

I have previously confessed that my personal road to hell is pot holed by a badly warped sense of humor.

Mercifully, diligent #1 son brought this Craigslist ad to my attention.

It is real, and still active as of the time of this writing.

It may not be a joke that he wants a midget to mow his lawn in a clown suit and will seriously pay them; surely it is a joke on someone else? It's a strange world we live in...

Sad sad sad... I bet poor Craig is kicking himself for all of the idiots using his free service, for postings like this. Poor Craig.
