Craigslist is one of those mega-popular internet thingers i've never
once checked out.

same with E-Bay.

not once have i clicked on either site, IIRC.

there's a punchline here somewhere, but i can't find it just now.

> Re: Comedy Writer for TV Series Pilot

oh.

there it is.

(because it's actually true that i've never visited either site).

anyway, what mega-popular internet sites have you never checked out?

Gawd. Yeah because it was all going so well up until that point. Apart
from the slight problem of you never having said a funny word in your
entire life, that is.

I'm scared of Craigslist ever since that woman advertised for a "freelance
assassin" to kill her lover's wife. Creeped me out, it did.

Especially since she lives about 50 miles from Chickpea.
