The Bra Saga

The Bra Saga.

          I stayed at my brother’s house in Flagstaff when I attended my grandson’s graduation.  He is retired now and makes his funny money selling junk on line.  As I was packing, he warned me:   "This time, don't leave any of your junk behind.   Whatever is left I am selling on Ebay"

When I returned home, I realized I had left my bra.  I sent him an email saying that I knew that anything left at his house was fair game for Ebay, but I wanted him to know that I had spent a considerable amount of money on that bra and that he should not sell it too cheaply.

        He answered the email saying that he had already sold it for $60.   He had advertised it as an extra-large, double barreled water balloon launcher.  Pretty funny, but then he confessed that he hadn’t found it. 

        A couple of weeks later at my granddaughter’s wedding, he told me that he had indeed found the bra and had listed it on EBay. 

“I am selling my sister’s bra.  She left it here the last time she was visiting.  I eventually found it hanging off the balcony.  She said it was a $40 bra which I believe because it appears to be reinforced with titanium.  As she puts it, ‘It’s not cheap keeping my girls under control.’ I am not sure of the size, but the cannonball in the picture gives you some perspective.  By the way, I tried it out and it really does support this 10 pound cannonball.  Bidding starts at $10. ” 

        Today, I get it in a package in the mail.  My son took pity on me and successfully bid on the bra and had it sent home.  It also included the sales slip:  

      "One overtheshoulderboulderholder.
