Zoomdoggle: More fun than work!

Put it on Craigslist. What’s the “it”? Why, anything you want you really. In this case Josh, he of the cat-like sense of trouble, had ordered some extra food for a meeting and didn’t want it to go to the waste. So he asked me to put it on the list on Friday.

Within minutes, we has close to 20 responses. Some people wanted to know more. Others wanted to know less (there was a lot of “why don’t you give it to a homeless person”-type stuff hitting the in-box).

Some had us interested:

“Good afternoon, my name is Susan and i’m very interested in the gourmet sandwiches. i recieved my culinary arts degree and would like to see what kind of work was put into these sandwiches, please email if still available, Thank you…”

Others, worried:

“Is this an NSA situation. I’d hate to eat one of them, only to discover I now owed some stranger a rub and tug.”

And then there was Dahana who came all the way down from Hunter College (read: 20 minute train ride) to claim her prize. After a brief tour of the meal (“they came from Dean & Deluca, neither have been touched… obviously if anyone here was hungry, these would be exactly the kind of sandwiches we’d want”) she agreed to take them off our hands on one condition: She didn’t want to walk out the door with the pair in the zip-lock bag we’d provided because then people on the subway would see them. Instead, she required a paper bag. There was no humor in her voice. None. Dead serious.

Oh Craigslist, you never cease to amaze.
