20 inch Box Fan

[Matt C]

While walking across the lake today in my sandals and shorts, i felt a breeze. Low and behold, I looked down through the ice, and there was a fan blowing. I figured, no it cant be; I took a closer looks and saw a KC royals sticker and a Unicorn on it. I immediately thought of this thread and ran to get the auger and try and drill it out.

Well, by the time I got back with the auger, it had floated away under the ice or something; however, I did see a guy packing up an item into the back of his truck and driving away very quickly...

41 pages for a box fan lol you guys are nuts

[UdeLakeTom]

Yup!!!!

The box fan has a larger following than the "Roaming Gnome".

[hunterdown]

See now... If the Roaming Gnome had a 20" box fan strapped to his back he could hover over all the lakes and give us reports on where the fish are biting.....

Course then he would need a really long extention cord...

And he would have to fix the cord first....

OK......never mind.

Ya, I still LMAO on the can I interest you in a ladder that is missing the rungs followed by the guy from Brainerd willing to take a day off work to come and pick it up.

Wow this thread is a direct decendent of the Energizer Bunny it keeps going and going and....

I just stumbled upon it and while at first found it a bit cruel after finishing the first page I found myself laughing out load hysterically. Sorry to all but this took on a life of it's own. I was scanning these because I had some items to give away but now I feel I may need to re-access and make sure they are worthy of being passed on. Although possibly reigniting another one of these might be a hoot. Hmm what would qualify as an item which could invoke such enthusiasm? Anybody? Bueller? Anybody? Priceless. Again my apologies to all.

Zap...what do you plan on giving away. We may be able to give you somne suggestions on how to raise interest in your items and move them onto a new home. Without knowing what you are giving away, here are a couple tips. Throw a couple stickers on it. A little bit of individuality makes items more desireable. If it has a cord, slice it to make it a "fixer-upper", everyone likes a little challenge. In your description, use exact details, it lets the new owner know exactly what they are getting!!!

Dont forget to say it is still in good candition

[heartattack22]

oops. Missed that part!!!

[ZapBranigan]

I think a more important selling point would be that it doesn't bother the cat. Do not loose focus on the impact the item will have on the domestic pets. Then I could look at details such as stickers as long as I steer away from KC Royals. The unicorn maybe OK.

i might of been seeing things but i saw that fan today. I was driving on hwy 55 east bound and I slowed down to turn and behind me I was a youg lady (good looking too). but riding shot gun was a fan and I just saw only one blade. I was area annandale so please keep an eye out for the fan. The car she was driving was a pontiac grand [PoorWordUsage].

[nytelyter]

2 box fans need a new home. They are dirty but can be easily cleaned up.

Location: St. Paul MN

it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests

this may explain why it has not been sighted in a while. may just be that the fan has found a mate. just think of the little fans running around in a few months. ... paul

[LOTWSvirgin]

Wonder what they get for them little fans???

[pinkfloyd4ever]

probably more than a ladder that is missing the rungs

[mrfish1991]

is this an aluminium ladder or a wood ladder...for all the time its been up here...a wood ladder might make good a fire starter

[nytelyter]

its a wooden one. with the rise in aliminium prices i recycled the aluminium one. the rungs on it were only v-shaped due to load stress, not missing. it did however keep your feet centered on the rung but was not as stable. ... paul

[TonkaBass]

Box fan with bad motor, if you can fix it you could cool yourself with this baby in the window, approx. 5 yrs old. a few kids stickers on it. located in East St.Paul.

Honestly, it's so sad that it's funny. LOL

[pinkfloyd4ever]

you might make this whole thing start all over again

[dan z]

Its not for sale but I would imagine the wood burner in the dinning room in my house would work nicely even with the stickers on it LOL

TRZ, sorry I cant help myself.

Free. Left sock, right sock is missing but you may have one like it. Still in good shape.

Some things just arent even worth giving away..

[machohorn]

I cannot believe this is still going around.
