 by Mandiferous on 3/5/2009 @ 8:24am | If I give you a miter box saw, will you use your sufficient tallness to prune the trees in my yard?
No, you say? Not a fair trade? How does one calculate the value of tallness? |
 by fredo on 3/5/2009 @ 8:31am | RR can't be ask to prune trees, he carries a little baby in a sling. |
by Mandiferous on 3/5/2009 @ 8:37am | Never too early for children to learn the value of manual labor! |
 by Mofo from the Hood on 3/5/2009 @ 8:39am | Mandiferous, "How does one calculate the value of tallness?"
Somebody once asked Abraham Lincoln, "How long should a man's legs be?" Lincoln replied, "Long enough to reach the ground." |
 by Crenshaw Sepulveda on 3/5/2009 @ 8:54am | I'm glad it was Lincoln's legs they were asking about. |
 by izenmania on 3/5/2009 @ 9:07am | As with all things, the value of tallness is determined by the purchaser's need for tallness. No one will pay premium for a 7 foot tall man when six feet will do the job. |
by Mofo from the Hood on 3/5/2009 @ 9:50am | Some people might pay more for a 5 foot tall guy with an extraordinary intellectual capacity.
Some people place a higher value on stupid 6 foot tall people with extraordinary productive abilities. |
 by jenyum on 3/5/2009 @ 9:55am | Can I barter intellectual capacity for tallness?
|
 by NineInchNachos on 3/5/2009 @ 10:26am | I need a saw sharpening. I need my saw sharpened in a bad way. |
 by AngelaJossy on 3/5/2009 @ 3:54pm | OK NiN, you make a cartoon about me where I look all tall and skinny and have big boobs and long eyelashes and make me out to be a superhero and a rock star. Then you hack into all the local news outlets so the word spreads all across the city and my music performances triple in audience size and people flock to me for autographs and six digit job offers.
In exchange I will write your jingle and get my movie star friend to sing it for you. We can talk about it over lunch where you'll be all charming and witty and I'll buy us some Jack in the Box 99 cent Tacos. Deal? |
by NineInchNachos on 3/8/2009 @ 7:06pm | BARTER STATUS UPDATE: have welder, will barter! I can attach two pieces of metal. Now at Holistic Forge Works Omni Repair Shop. |
by NineInchNachos on 7/23/2009 @ 10:24am | Anyone need a small bench-mounted drill press? I can even throw in a box of drill bits.
lets hear your trades! |
 by Thorax O'Tool on 7/23/2009 @ 11:31am | How about trading that drill for an AMD K-6/ 500mHz computer with 128 MB PC-100 RAM, nVidia TNT2 graphics with a 20 gig HD, running Xubuntu Linux? |
by NineInchNachos on 7/23/2009 @ 11:56am | I'm good for computers. What else you got? |
by Thorax O'Tool on 7/23/2009 @ 12:22pm | 1985 Plymouth Reliant that needs a water pump.
Two orange cats... ok just kidding on the cats. I'm keeping the boys. Large quantities of homegrown Zucchini squash as well as epic amounts of homegrown tomatoes (in a month or so). Also, Jalapeņos and green beans. A copy of Star Fox for the SNES. 12x18 piece of mirror acrylic 12x36 double-paned clear IG tempered glass 26x48 double-paned solar-bronze tinted IG tempered glass one of those over-the-air digital TV conversion boxes |
by Thorax O'Tool on 7/23/2009 @ 1:07pm | Also to add...
A VHS copy of St Elmo's Fire. |
by NineInchNachos on 7/23/2009 @ 1:22pm | do I look like a guy that needs obscurely sized pieces of glass and a VHS copy of St. Elmo's Fire to you????
you're a weird guy Thorax. |
by Thorax O'Tool on 7/23/2009 @ 1:26pm | ...you don't even know the half of it. |
