just before class, I took a quick perusal of ebay and saw this item going for 1.99. somehow it was slipping thru, so I threw a snipe bid on it, and went off to teach. after discussing cross-sex friendships with half my class…the other half apparently can’t come to class when it is snowing, i headed back to my office and there was the email confirmation that i won the item. i did the corkscrew dance of joy, and promptly headed for home.
the corkscrew is pictured below.
