Holy Jeebus!

#1 Post by gator » Sat May 26, 2007 12:31 pm

Check this ebay auction! The sale is for a "Holy Bible" signed by none other than Jeebus, circa 60 AD !? From the auction page:
Q: Does this come with a Certificate of Authenticity from the signer? May-24-07

A: Thank you for getting in touch. Unfortunately it does not come with a certificate as the signer is a tough cookie to track down.
This is a prank I guess, since the seller joined only in April 07. Sad to see that there are 7 bids. :roll:
Now: T60 2613-EKU | T23 2647-9NU | 600X 2645-9FU | HP 100LX
Past: X31 2673-Y13 | T41 2374-3HU | T22 2647-AEU

Rules of the road :thumbs-UP:

No wonder why the listed has been ended. Look at this question asked regarding the auction:
Q: Does this come with a Certificate of Authenticity from the signer? May-24-07
A: Thank you for getting in touch. Unfortunately it does not come with a certificate as the signer is a tough cookie to track down.

Gutenberg must be turning in his grave! What he thought he invented (printing), had already been done 1400 years previously?
AND was waterproof (it was found IN a lake), AND written in English, AND signed by Jesus 27 years after his supposed death?
A miracle indeed!

I remained honest and did not use any internet help, I was going to say "Mad Max" at first but upon putting more force on my brain I did not remember any Miracle Max in it and came up with "The Princess Bride" answer instead.
