Whether it’s working the public up into a fake scare frenzy, or making a buck off a cartoon, it seems everyone’s getting in on yesterday’s action. From the comfort of our blanket-laden-tissue-strewn pullout sofa, Trav and I caught up on the whole Mooninites Bostonian Blasto-rama Drama yesterday while nursing our mutually pathetic flu-like selves under the glow of 43 inches of digital bliss.
Travis: “Did you hear about this? This is crazy.” *sniffle*
Jules: “Dude. A million dollars says those things show up on eBay by midnight.” *COUGH*
Lo and behold – one of the first things mentioned on the Today Show this morning (video link) is this: Now you can get your very own Mooninite LED sign for a starting bid of just $2000! Wow. (Buyer beware: there’s no reason any shmoe with half a brain can’t start making these in his garage.)
I could go on and on about how stupid I think the reaction to a couple of fricking LITEBRITE signs is, and how triggerhappy our authorities seem to be, but honestly? I’m sick. I don’t have the energy. And there are a bazillion other bloggers already at it. Suffice it to say, I think Wil sums it up pretty well right here.
On a side note: If anyone’s looking for a nice authentic Coach wallet, check out this listing from a Stargazer reader, jessstu, who’s just getting started on eBay. She’s good for it, I promise. No fakie fakies from my peeps!

Yep, they were on ebay by midnight…actually well before midnight.
