Thread: So you got bit on Ebay eh?

Well how's this for a tricky sale? LOL Man buys toy poodles, discovers they I can't hardly imagine being on the receiving end of this deal. Or how hard the seller is laughing on the other end. Sorry guys. This has nothing to do with razors. I just thought it was a funny/sad story.

I'd much rather have a ferret than a poodle anyway. Ferrets are really pretty awesome pets.

I like em too. Unfortunately, mine found his way outdoors one winter 15 years ago.

Ferrets are so cool, anything you drop in the water absolutely have to come out of it.
I had a nice little ferret girl a long time ago, she could bite hard tho.

There was a famous, among the trade, tattooer/carnival guy named Sailor Bill Killingsworth. I've known some guys who worked for Sailor Bill in days gone by and there are too many good stories to list, but the OP brings this one to mind.

Sailor Bill had a tattoo booth in the side show along with a couple of other attractions. One was "the big Australian red bat'. It was half a dollar to get in to see the marvel and once you paid and went down a hallway through the tent enclosure there was a baseball bat that was made in Australia, and painted red. At the exit was a large sign that said, "Ha Ha, we fooled you ! Don't tell your friends and we will fool them too !"

He also had a dancing chicken for awhile. This was also fifty cents. You went in to see a chicken in a cage. What you couldn't see was a hot plate under the cage. Bill would surreptitiously turn up the heat gradually and the chicken would indeed begin to dance. Someone notified the authorities of his little charade and the ASPCA came out. They confronted Bill and told him he was subject to arrest for cruelty to animals. Bill grabbed hold of the chicken, wrung its neck, and said, "That ain't an animal, that's dinner!"

Poodles have rather thick hair, might make a good brush.
