and his ego is HUGE!!!...
Posted by: julietine | March 17, 2005 at 08:42 AM
Is this someone with an outrageous ego or no self esteem? Also, how did he arrive at the $5 starting bid?
Posted by: Esther | March 17, 2005 at 08:43 AM
He's willing to consider women up to age 35! How generous of him!
Posted by: stacy | March 17, 2005 at 08:44 AM
Now which one of the blogerettes is going to be the first one to bid???
Posted by: julietine | March 17, 2005 at 08:44 AM
Despite his protestations to the contrary, I would wager he would be more disappointed to get a bid from a married mother of 5 than a homosexual.
Posted by: Esther | March 17, 2005 at 08:46 AM
those pics of him are downright scary.
Posted by: judi | March 17, 2005 at 08:49 AM
Judi,
I agree...
Posted by: julietine | March 17, 2005 at 08:52 AM
He lives in Dix (giggle) Hills
Posted by: slyeyes | March 17, 2005 at 08:56 AM
6'8" and 170 lbs? That's just not efficient space management. I can fit 170 lbs into a MUCH shorter frame. Lets be clear that (other than about $5000 in travel expenses) the only reason I'm not bidding on this fine specimen of telephone-pole-hood is that I don't want to risk a permanent crick in my neck. I also don't want to have the crap kicked out of me for cradle-snatching. NTTAWWT. I guess I have three reasons.
Posted by: Kafaleni | March 17, 2005 at 08:56 AM
judi & julietine.
Me too.. I guess that's four reasons.
Posted by: O'Kafaleni | March 17, 2005 at 08:59 AM
The question is...Will the congressman put out after the lunch???....just asking...
Posted by: julietine | March 17, 2005 at 09:00 AM
ahhh, prom night - I can still smell the vomit like it was yesterday.
*checks calendar*
oh, it WAS yesterday.
Posted by: teen geek | March 17, 2005 at 09:03 AM
Why the long face?
Posted by: Mahatma Kane Jeeves | March 17, 2005 at 09:05 AM
What's with the lab coat? Should we be impressed or afraid?
Posted by: Esther | March 17, 2005 at 09:05 AM
Mrs B.. I need one of those!!
Posted by: Kafaleni | March 17, 2005 at 09:10 AM
Can't you just hook him up with Bambi ?
Posted by: wilbotsgirl | March 17, 2005 at 09:11 AM
That's damned hillarious!
*sigh* I wish I thought of it.
But realisticly... 6'8''!
who, in the tri-state area, COULD dance with him?

Every picture tells a story, don't it...especially the one of PromBoy with two male friends...the guy on the right looks like an extra in a werewolf ('Where wolf?' 'There wolf!') movie. *starts humming Ozzy...'Ooo-ooo, bark at the moon...'*

After this reception ends, we will head out to East Hampton as a group and sleep at a nice house.
interestingly, group sleep has been clinically proven to improve group fatigue, as well as other flock-related illnesses.
Posted by: M.D. | March 17, 2005 at 09:24 AM
Dude, you can stock up here before the prom too
Posted by: Mahatma Kane Jeeves | March 17, 2005 at 09:25 AM
yeah ... 'cause posting yourself on EBay somehow makes you seem less desperate.
*sigh*
where have all the cowboys gone?
Posted by: O.E. | March 17, 2005 at 09:27 AM
i think his ego is probably the main reason why he can't find a date at his school.
Posted by: jamie the star wars nerdgirl | March 17, 2005 at 09:34 AM
you know, as opposed to an extreme love of star wars.
Posted by: jamie the star wars nerdgirl | March 17, 2005 at 09:35 AM
but i had a date.
Posted by: jamie the star wars nerdgirl | March 17, 2005 at 09:36 AM
where have all the cowboys gone?
O.E. That's a question I ask every day! Paula Cole, right?
Sara Davidson (formerly a Nice Jewish Girl) wrote a book called Cowboy - fiction - but in the cover notes whe said it was
semi -autobiographical - (is that even a word) about a lurid affair she had for several years with a true cowboy. She said she changed everyones name and said the protaganist had one more child than she did in real life, so her kids (from a previous marriage) wouldn't be embarassed by the 45 pages of the most graphic sex I've ever read!
Unbelieveable!
*zips out to go look for a cowboy*
Posted by: Eleanor | March 17, 2005 at 09:39 AM
I would buy tickets to hear or see testimonials about this guy from any of the girls in his school.
Posted by: golfwidow | March 17, 2005 at 09:39 AM
haha! In the second link, that's my congressman! (I don't think Prom Boy is old enough to be a congressman yet.)
He was so bad, the Washington Post wouldn't even endorse him for the last election. (Yes, this is the Post editorial board, *not* endorsing a Democrat.) Of course, they couldn't endorse the Republican running against him, so they just said "Yeah, sucks to be in that district."
Posted by: acheron | March 17, 2005 at 09:39 AM
By the way, I checked out the school website. Enrollment is 1350. So he may have already been rejected by over 600 women.
Posted by: Esther | March 17, 2005 at 09:41 AM
At least 3 feet of his total height can be attributed to his chin alone.
Posted by: casey | March 17, 2005 at 09:41 AM
you rang?
Posted by: cowboy | March 17, 2005 at 09:42 AM
really, to put out such bait and then say 'no ax murderer allowed'.
Posted by: Bangi | March 17, 2005 at 09:49 AM
Darn it all to heck. He's a little old for me, but I was into the idea.... If only I was 34 instead of 38....
Posted by: Mary Kay LeTourneau | March 17, 2005 at 09:51 AM
"The most interesting thing about me is that I am 6 foot 8 and I weigh 170 pounds."
That's the most interesting thing about him? Wow, exciting date. No, really.
"I am a very energetic individual and I enjoy dancing and having a “Good Time”."
*wink* *wink*
"I am not gay nor bi-sexual so for all of you gay men, I am sorry (I would be upset to miss out on a piece of ass this sweet as well)."
Yeah, I'm pretty upset that I have to miss out on a piece of his ass, too. I mean, a piece of his ass-kicking that is most certainly going on as we speak.
Wonder how his lab coat looks on the flag pole? You think some of his classmates will post a pic somewhere?

NEW YORK - A group of highschoolers was found consumed by leeches in a ritualistic science experiement from hell, one day after they had attended their prom.
The friends had gone to a nice house to group sleep after their prom, when Matthew Kochman's date, Congressman Jim Moran, who had purchased him for the evening off ebay, "just went nuts" said Jeremy Jones, the only survivor.
"I decided to pretend I was also a crazy leech scientist, and helped him stuff everyone into the feeding vat, so he let me live, after we had made out for a while. Oh, then I had to pay him $175."
Charges are pending as police wait to see whether any of the families of the deceased even care.

BWA HA HA! C-bol, i wish that i had half of your wit. (i guess i can actually work now that i've had my christobol fix for the day ... at least until lunch.)
cowboy - yes. i did. where ARE you?
Posted by: O.E. | March 17, 2005 at 10:03 AM
down here in texas - where else?
Posted by: cowboy | March 17, 2005 at 10:06 AM
What? No gay men? And I soooooo was hoping to be able to go...
*tearfully packs away prom dress*
Posted by: djtonyb | March 17, 2005 at 10:16 AM
one has to question a dollhouse that has a leech jar in it. the dollhouse of horrors?
Posted by: jamie the star wars nerdgirl | March 17, 2005 at 10:25 AM
Us cowboys are still out here ma'am. We're just a-gittin' old and many of us have had to take up code wrangling on the old digital range to make enough to keep Ol' Paint in hay and oats.
Posted by: pogo | March 17, 2005 at 10:35 AM
I just bought me a Kochman, Matthew
And I bought me a Congressman, too
Found 'em both on ebay
Tho' they claim they ain't gay
After prom we'll just see what they do
Posted by: Christobol | March 17, 2005 at 10:45 AM
I wonder if he knows how ridiculous he is, and I wonder if his mother knows, I think we should tell her
Posted by: cubie | March 17, 2005 at 11:02 AM
So the congressman is going to a lunch with 4 empty chairs and someone who bought access to him on e-bay?
The Algonquin Round Table ,it won't be.
Posted by: ins 'o' mniac | March 17, 2005 at 11:07 AM
Lunch with Congressman Jim Moran? Somebody pinch me! Lunch with a thuggish, babbling, anti-semitic, wife-beating, semiliterate sanctimonious moron? I'm in heaven.
(Can you tell I don't like him?)
Posted by: Wally Ballou | March 17, 2005 at 11:08 AM
Hey, cowboy - I rang too - do you have a cowboy brother????
Posted by: Eleanor | March 17, 2005 at 11:08 AM
I'll just say that I am soooooo disappointed that I am too old for him.
But I'm sure I'll survive, somehow.
Posted by: Susan | March 17, 2005 at 11:19 AM
I can't believe I only missed the opportunity to go to the prom by 5 measly years. I am considering about lying about my age and then be PROM DATE FROM HELL! He'd be crying in 15 minutes.
That would be great for me and for bitter single woman everwhere.
Posted by: wondering | March 17, 2005 at 11:30 AM
relax little philly, there's plenty of this stallion to go around.
Posted by: cowboy | March 17, 2005 at 11:56 AM
Mahatma, with you aboard, every thread leads to ebay!
Good to see you back on a semi-regular basis!
Posted by: djtonyb | March 17, 2005 at 12:17 PM
grazie, djt.
(just heard this one)
Q: What is Irish and sits by the pool all summer?
A: Paddy O'Furniture!
Posted by: Mahatma Kane Jeeves | March 17, 2005 at 12:48 PM
6 foot 8 and with those ears? His neck must get sore in a windstorm.
Posted by: Deontologist | March 17, 2005 at 03:27 PM
I got dibs on first smack at Prom Boy with a two by four.
Leetie, have you bid on your Congressman yet? JU?
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | March 17, 2005 at 04:05 PM
I thought prostitution was illegal.
Posted by: opiesgirl | March 17, 2005 at 04:12 PM
Prom Boy or Jim Moran, Prom Boy or Jim Moran .........Zzzzzzzzzzzzz ..
Posted by: Lmd33 | March 17, 2005 at 05:04 PM
mkj -
The way I heard it (my middle daughter brought it up, many years ago), was:
What's green and white and sits in your back yard?
Patio Furniture.
(Best if told only once a year -- today.)
Another one:
Did you hear that Shaquille O'Neal is up for Irishman of the Year?
(That one stems from the other, much older version: When the famous football play occurred, Franco Harris was up for IMOTY.)

Bangi,
About axe murderers, i have a lot of experience with killer girls.
My old girlfriend was convicted of murder 1.
(not on me, luckily)
So, i like axe murderers.
Call me.

eBay took it down. Drat!
Posted by: Smoodle | March 18, 2005 at 12:18 PM
eBay has taken down every link so far this evening. Is that the new way to kill an eBay post? Link to it from Dave's blog?
Posted by: AlanBoss | March 18, 2005 at 08:58 PM
Your statement from "Mary Kay LeTourneau" is an obvious spoof and I can guarantee you was not written by Mary. Her name is spelled, and she would know: Mary Letourneau......NOT LeTourneau.
SO, nice try to whoever is posing as Mary.
