    Heh, not something I would do, but still, it's not that bad an idea



    Just seen the price, $15k!? for thirty days?
    Don't you just love free internet games ?

    Maybe $2k would be worth it if no one was doing it, but $15k...

    I wouldn't go around with 666, the mark of the beast...
    Good quote, hehe. That really is thinking outside the box - as long as you convince someone else to do it rather than yourself

    I feel he will make a large amount of money for your 'regular American Joe', he's getting a lot of free publicity

    Maybe in the future when only the people down the supermarket will see it - but the first one is going to get major worldwide media attention - worth well over $15k I would think.

    The publicity it will generate will far outweigh the cost paid and be far more beneficial than the actual advertisement on his forehead. I wouldn't be surprised if the casino that bought the toasted cheese sandwhich jumps in on it.

    When/how many have there been? Either way he appears to be getting some major attention.

    Not a bad plan, looks to be making serious money. $21k on the auction several $xxx on the site with ads. Now if only I had thought of this earlier :-)

    Somehow I get the feeling that some of those bids aren't completely valid
