I was reading a news article:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6651230/
It seems this woman is trying to sell her father's ghost, so her son isn't afraid in the house anymore. The news article has sent lots of folks to ebay to read the woman's auction, (which the bid is up to $14,935.66 as of this writing)

Copycats have listed their father's ghosts, their cat's ghost, too, some claiming "this is no joke" .. and some are just poking at the bidders.. "this IS a joke, but look anyway".. some are including their dad's socks, his cane, grampa's old cologne, (barely used)... One auction contains a missive of "where you go when you die".. bible quotes showing that there are no ghosts...

People really will do anything. They really will.
(Dad, I SWEAR should the time ever come, I promise I won't sell your ghost on Ebay!!!!!!!!!)
