Idea (Partially Stolen)

Semi-inspired by the business model that [livejournal.com profile] freydis has come up with, I've got a mad/phat idea for Ebay.

I wanna sell "Care Packages from Home".

And what do you GET in your Care Package from Home?
  • 1 Dozen home-baked cookies
  • A letter from "Mom" telling you all about how things are going "back home"
  • Three comic books
  • A letter that "Mom" forced your younger sibling to write to you
  • 3 to 5 pictures of your "Family" members notated on the back to let you know who they are.

I think it would be real fun to get one of these in the mail, maybe even have it delivered to your work place. Fun, but in a sad sort of way... not everybody gets care packages from home after all, so somebody should take up the slack and offer this valuable service!

Services that send you a "pretend girlfriend" aren't exactly a new concept :)

Oh, that wasn't what you meant :)
