Now, I'm not going to say who it was we were looking for or what item it was, but we did find something in our online travels that was pretty amazing.
I present to you The Fine Art Martini Frog:

For those who don't feel like following the link to find out more about it, this is a four foot tall, hand-painted bronze frog holding a martini glass. If you asked me, I would have put the price tag at something like $50.
Oh, how little I know about art, apparently.
This stunning beauty of a piece of crap is going for (drum roll please) $11,900.00! Twelve freakin' thousand dollars!! And that's apparently on sale from its original $16,000 dollars.
Good gravy. I think the thing that amazed me most of all was the ability to add it to your shopping cart with a Quantity tab. As if anyone on earth would need more than one of these if they had a spare $25,000 lying around. To quote Andrew Dick, "ri-doik-u-loise."

Thankfully, they offer next day delivery so my army of 25 martini frogs will arrive tomorrow by 10:30am.
:o)
I admire anyone with a spare $300,000 to blow on an army of martini frogs.
The thing is, it begs the question: exactly how many do they have sitting around? What did they anticipate the demand for this thing would be?
I don't see Humphrey Bogart starring in "The Martini Frog."
Maybe David Spade. But not Bogart.
