I love me some craigslist and I've been using the Philly incarnation since before Day 1 of living here. I just saw this posting which may be one of the weirder ones I've ever seen. I shall cut & paste it in its entirety in case it expires soon [reposting of the posting is checked as okay].

1st- If you decide to take me up on this offer I will want to see a picture of you and a good description. 2nd- I will be paying for a plane ticket to fly you to Tempe, AZ and we will be driving back together...
i'm a friendly, talkative, sweet, non smoking, massage student trying to get back to Philadelphia, PA so I can be closer to family and friends there. I have no pets, kids or drug habbits but am very open minded and creative.
I will be paying for the moving van, gas, and food during the road trip back. You need to have a good driving record, or have a good licence so that you can secure the truck - I don't drive or I would do this alone if I could.
Besides taking a fun road trip with a fun girl, with all food, gas and return fee's covered - I'm willing to give you my used lap top computer for helping me or my new souround sound system thats got a built in VCR/ DVD player. I have other things as well you could look at and decide on when you get here but I will give you somthing valuable for helping me...I just don't have that much money.
Please PLEASE... get back to me as soon as possible so we can start making the arrangments. I HAVE TO LEAVE BY NOVEMBER THE 1st or BY THE 3rd OF NOVEMBER...!

Sounds like an adventure. Something like this would be a great story to read about and blogged about. And photoblogged about. Even video blogged. I think I'd take this person up on the offer if I didn't have a job right now.
