I had gotten this Atlas for a college class.\u00a0 And if I remember correctly, I paid about $10 for it and it was never actually used in the course of study. If it were a regular world atlas, it would be way out of date by now.\u00a0 But it has historical maps – like how much territory comprised the Roman Empire at the time of Julius Caesar and so forth, so it will never go out of date. I figured I would pass it on to one of the history teachers at my school rather than toss it in the recycle bin.\u00a0 So I gave it as a sort of goodwill gesture to a guy I frequently get into political debates with on Facebook.\u00a0 I love debating someone with polar opposite beliefs – it’s such great mental exercise.\u00a0 And, of course, when you win the debate consistently, that’s just icing on the cake.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude09 My history teacher friend was appreciative. Today’s object to sell is a toilet paper holder I found while cleaning out the garage.\u00a0 It’s still in the packaging and perfectly fine, except for the layer of dust and grime all over it.\u00a0 I don’t remember the circumstances of why it was neither used\u00a0nor returned.\u00a0 But\u00a0I’m putting it with the garage sale stuff and maybe I’ll get a buck or two out of it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
