Didn't this get Clarence Thomas in news for the wrong reason 20-plus years ago?

Default That's Funny!!!

What if you could determine if it was a female pube vs a male pube, would you then buy it?

On a related note (to scanning, not to pubes ), has anyone else notice the increase in cell phone pictures for cards? I realize it's more convenient, but a good high-res scan is the way to go.

Agree Chuck. I hate the cell scan...ok if it's a quick one followed by some hi-res scans, but if it's the only picture I'll pass.

My scans almost always have hair involved. Not pubes. 6 stupid cats. Sometimes I wipe the screen and rescan. Sometimes I just say ---- it!

Yes, and agree. A good, cheap, usb flatbed scanner is all that is needed. I guess people don't want to spend the extra few minutes to use a scanner (or they don't have one)?

Maybe it belonged to the player. A game used pube would command quite a premium. If locks of Elvis's hair sell for big money, i bet someone would pay for a few verified Wagner curlies.

Part of it is because eBay is now pushing its mobil eBay site. Personally I despize it but that's me.

Agree, eBay's mobile sight sucks! Granted, it's gotten a little better with zoom and an auction clock/countdown, but when that clock is 5-15 seconds behind the actual clock it doesn't help much. I've missed out on 3-4 items in the final seconds due to this. The other day (on a T205 Huggins I won), I decided to go home while on a run so I could bid late, rather than stay out and trust the mobile site. Once home, I watched side by side as my computer was 10 seconds ahead of eBay mobile, but was glad I decided to go home so I could bid/win.
