You're Ad Here

I have an enormous forehead and I've often considered selling it as ad space but some guy has apparently beat me to it by selling his forehead space on eBay.

DE WITT, Iowa — Jeff Swanson is really using his head to make money.

Swanson, 39, is offering to let an advertiser tattoo his head for $100,000.

He listed his offer twice on the Internet auction site eBay and says at least one person has already called to express interest.

I thought if the right person saw it and they had that kind of money, they might try to do it, maybe to get some publicity for themselves, said Swanson, who hangs hollow metal doors for a Davenport company.

The tattoo, which he would expose for a year, would be a first for the father of four young boys, who said he could invest part of the money for his children's college education.

Maybe this is a new way to get corporate sponsors for Perl 6 development....:)
