There is a lighter side to The Classifieds just about everyday.
While reading the ads, I bear in mind the sellers are serious-minded people just trying to downsize their closet or shelf in the basement, and there's nothing wrong with that.
But sometimes one little word catches my eye and a red light goes off near my sense of humor.
Iread this ad last night:
For Sale - Suede suit and knitted jacket, navy blue, like new, $50
I thought, I don't need a suede suit. Next.
It was the next one that set off the red light.
For sale - Swede, fake fur lined jacket. Machine washable, $40
I thought, I don't need a suede jacket, but a Swede jacket is another story. Did it once belong to Tiger's wife, or was it made from an actual Swede?
Either way, $40 ain't bad.
