Selling my soul in a buyer's market. Who wants to own my soul?
Best offer gets a certificate worthy of hanging.

2. Well, I COULD, I think...
but if I owned your soul and it was worth 6 times what I paid for it in ten years, would you be willing to buy it back, provided I hadn't sold it to a third party before then?

7. Well, over HERE I've got jewels,
and over THERE I've got a large wad of cash. And over there, lovely cowrie shells. Yonder, I have a big bag of Jack, with a side of diddly.

I've got lots in this bag. What do you like?

11. Oooh! SPARKLIES!
Modem LIKES sparklies. They make the nest so attractive!


What's the smiley for jumping up and down while clapping hands and squealing delightedly?

15. Aaaaaaaaah, sparklies for the nest!
long strings of rhinestones, twinkling in the track lighting. Real diamonds and lots of rubies. Over here are some sequins and cut glass. Pretty! And some faceted mirror-covered things, like disco balls. It's sensory overload for everyone! I have blue and red glass dinnerware, as well.

5. hmmm...how much will it appreciate over time?
I might be thinking of chopping it into bits and selling the stock in your soul...the parts are worth more than the whole

9. Well, it's sort of been around the block a few times
It's got some definite scuff marks, and that scar from last November is probably permanent. Also, it's got some coffee stains, but beyond that, it's in pretty good repair.

13. Will the certificate have one of those cool foil seal thingies?
Those are neat-o. If it's got one of those, I'm in for the bidding!

14. I'll want an option on your major organs as well
what's the use of an extra soul in the happenstance that my body fails me?

Hey, it's a buyer's market.

Damn thing seems to be going off left and right these days anyway.

20. No, but I do live in Georgia
I wonder if the devil would accept a challenge to a clarinet competition?

21. I am sure he'll bet you a clarinet of gold
against your soul because he thinks he's better than you.
