Weird News Video: Middle Aged Guy Puts Elderly Parents for Sale on Craigslist

From Denny: Normally, I reserve this blog for serious news stories but this one somehow peaked my interest. I mean, can you imagine, if everyone in the world decided to put their parents up for sale? What kind of commotion would it start from hip cities like New York to the tiny lost-in-time village backwaters in Afghanistan?

There's nothing like putting your parents up for sale to get the conversation started like this guy did! This news story sounds like a tutorial on how to do it. What started as a fun idea snowballed into a sensation. I can only imagine what his parents told their son off camera ... :)
