‘Hand of God’ rock being sold on eBay
A man in northern Idaho says he has seen a massive hand of God in his life, and he is willing to share it with the highest bidder.
Paul Grayhek, 52, listed the rock formation he dubbed the “Hand of God Rock Wall” on the online auction Web site eBay. The highest bid was $250 early Sunday, with three days left to go in the auction.
The hand-like formation, approximately 9 feet tall and 4 feet wide, appeared in Grayhek’s backyard after a rockfall during Lent on March 8, he said.
The Coeur d’Alene resident said he faced tough times after losing his job, and believed the rock was a sign.
However, the winning bidder on eBay should not start clearing out his backyard. Grayhek is not planning to part with the formation.
The buyer will “basically be buying the rights, complete and exclusive rights” to the rock, including literary and movie rights, according to Grayhek.
eBay As of now, it’s up to $2125.
The BLT Cocktail
“The BLT is one of those cocktails that has a very different and unusual response among its tasters,” says Brent Jones, mixologist at Hotel Jerome, A RockResort, in Aspen, Colorado. “More often than not I hear, ‘Wow, I did not expect that.’”
Jones says that reaction comes from the fact that the cocktail’s combination of flavors is so very reminiscent of the item that influenced its creation: the bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich.
