Just a useless little thread to notify people that today is eBay's 10th birthday! wOOt! Go eBay!

An Eternal Struggle between good and evil continues...Each side looking for an advantage...Each side looking for me.

Indeed - flowers on weeds can be a real pain to deal with, especially if its a rose in a strawberry patch.
