[OM] Gotta love e*bay descriptions

Reminds me of a story George W. Bush tells about writing a paper for college. 
 He had written something along the lines of "tears falling/flowing down the 
face/cheeks" and wanted a better word than "tears".  So got out his mother's 
thesaurus and came up with... are you ready for this?... "lacerates."  He got 
a failing grade for that one.  Good thing for the world he doesn't sell on 
e*Bay or write his own speeches.
