CNN just announced this story was coming up and to quote Paula Zahn, "Ooooh! I can hardly wait to meet them." (insert sarcasm) I'm wondering it it's our old friend the Lovegoddess.

Tune in.

They just did another teaser and it's on Connie Chung tonight. The little picture sure looked like a blonde women, a guy and two kids.

A search of "family for sale" yielded 65767 results. Mostly the key word spammer's auctions.

I looked and looked for this last night and I just couldn't find it. I know it is somewhere lurking on eBay as on the Connie Chung program they showed a picture of them and their auction. I guess selling price is 5 million dollars.

There is also a Carribean Island for sale but I couldn't find that either.

Blonde kids! Fooled me. Sounds like he took the lovegoddess concept and refined it to a higher dollar value. But being a writer he can spell and punctuate. A bit sleazy on the complete family services thing.

Can we say "Publicity Stunt", boys and girls???

Yes it's gone. eBay has a rule you cannot not auction off body parts so I guess this must fit in that catagory.

Connie Chung just had the family on and at the end of the interview she said I will give you 15 seconds to tell us what is the real reason you did that and he said.

Gotta give him credit for a novel approach. I must say his wife seemed really enthusiastic, NOT.

Saw them on a morning show-
he said you get his help with a book, plus cards during the holidays from the kids and his wife's advise on family matters etc... said someone offered 3,000, his reply was that would only get the person a poem, from him, also said the wife was not for sale alone it was the whole family with family pictures updated, school updates on the kids...you get to "join a real family" .
Even the little girl said she thought daddy had a wierd idea!!!!
