While watching the Best SNL I've seen all week I got this cool e-mail about my eBay item: Peanut's Snoopy Waffle Maker
Question from: joanofarkham

Hi, I was wondering if you could possibly end this auction early
because I HAVE to own this waffemaker and this is why.

Here goes: I'm a USC student, and my grandmother purchased this for me
years ago (when I was a kid). Recently I packed it in storage and when
I got my things out to move into my new place, I couldn't find it
anywhere. Whether the box it was in was misplaced, stolen--I don't know.
What I do know is that my grandfather was just diagnosed with cancer,
and as my grandparents are in Chicago, and I'm out here in Los Angele
with limited college student funds for emergency flights home...I could
really use something that brought back happier childhood memories.

This is not a made-up story. I looked for this waffe-maker a while
ago, and gave up the search. Then by chance, I typed it in again today on
ebay, and up popped your ad.

I'd be willing to come by with cash. If not, then I guess I'll bid the
old-fashioned way and hope I win.

Thanks for reading.
