I didn't know that the garbage collector and "karang guni" man has competitors until i saw this news.
According to MSN news: "An empty gourmet dog food can plundered from Paris Hilton's rubbish bin has launched an eBay bidding war reaching $US1.5 million ($A1.8 million).
A pair of enterprising scavengers from the website HollywoodStarTrash.com also put three other Hilton items for sale on eBay: a used toothbrush, an autographed postcard and a fan letter to the celebrity heiress. The highest bid for those was $US285 ($A340.56) offered for the toothbrush. Bidding closes Sunday."
I really went to check on ebay, and found out that the toothbrush is now worth A$6000. Probaby i should change my job to become a "professional rubbish scavenger", imagine how fertile my money tree would be.
Go check out this website, made me laugh http://cgi.ebay.com/NON-STAR-TRASH-LOW-COST-DOG-FOOD-CAN-PARIS-HILTON-PIC_W0QQitemZ150137291395QQihZ005QQcategoryZ2312QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
I wonder what is the bid winner gonna do with the dog food can??!!! Perhaps he/she has to sell their mansion to get a piece of st**id metal. AHhaah.
Well.... after giving it some thought, i think it is not that funny anymore. In fact i think the society is going psycho, paying so much attention to celebrities. Every uncle and auntie on the street would know that Paris Hilton has gone to jail, but how many would know the number of children that died of starvation or the number of soldiers that gave up their lives in a day.
And i am guilty of that too.
From today onwards, i am gonna boycott reading gossip magazines. For those who don't know, the clinic where i work has a healthy supply of WHO, woman's day and new idea. No more trash..... attention shall be diverted to MORE IMPORTANT THINGS.
Sidetrack: My parents are coming !!!!!!!!!! Excitedddddd
