I enjoyed Markos's diary yesterday: Bill in Portland Maine's soul for sale ... cheap!
So I thought we'd riff off it.
For What Would You Sell Your Soul to the Devil?
Love, longevity, wealth, celebrity?
More closet space? That would be my answer.
Just be sure the contract is airtight. You wouldn't want to be "enjoying" the result of this sale with some terrible joke that Satan thinks is funny, like food but no mouth.
