Quote:Cody, who is 24 and had been living in the van in California, is, as Michelle says, "a little touched in the head."
Quote:During his short stay in Arkansas, Cody lost a job at the local Butterball factory, was arrested for a number of misdemeanor violations and was spotted by neighbors running around the property naked.

Re: EBay 'Hippie Vacation' Auction Spawns Cult Following
I had fun reading it...very entertaining...but the guy is NOT a hippie...any self respecting hippie should be appalled and insulted for having this guy described as one...

he's really more like those dumb ass guys on mtv that do stupid stunts and tape themselves... Smileyyellowbang

just one man's opinion... Smile

Yeah - the stunts (where it seems he always gets hurt) are not very hippie in my eyes, but face it - sitting in his bus smoking doobies, sitting in the sun smoking doobies, sitting in the hot spring smoking doobies, playing music and smoking doobies  ....  this is not going to get him onto Jay Leno's show.

Not long after there was the first hippie, there was the first argument over "what is a hippie?  I had such a discussion last week, unrelated to Cody.

Cody is clearly creative and has a sense of humor, and is unwilling to follow society's norms. I vote let him in.

$6,100 to spend a week with a guy who urinates on the neighbor's chickens?   I'll pass.  :Smile

Here's the original auction:
http://www.leaderguy.com/Auction.html
"Well, Jay was so giddy that someone named Jay was involved with this site we posted our first non-eBay listing in 3 years here at Lunarbid (we tried two items at Yahoo once upon a time, they bombed)" -Marie posting in a LunarBid thread at OTWA in 2005 wins the award for 'most moronic reason ever given for choosing a venue"

"thanks twat u must have nothing better 2 do. do u talk to all your members like that. will not be recomending your site.
best way to put it is TULIPTOOLS.COM IS REALLY SHIT. DONT JOIN." -pubescent owner of rinky dink off2auction.com in 2011
