#124: Sittin' on the Dock of e-Bay...

The way I see it, e-Bay is made for retirees.  Who else has the time to watch over a bid that is going to expire at 2:30 pm?

My theory was borne out when I successfully bid on an item, and then checked the profile of the seller.

He is a 75 year old retired pharmacist who overcame cancer three years ago but found himself depressed until he discovered the joy of e-Bay. 

I can now think of my purchase as contributing to his continued recuperation.  Retail therapy, indeed!
