    Anybody wants to top the bid?..( really stupid idea) :D

    "An enterprising celebrity spotter is offering fans the chance to buy a jar of fresh air allegedly breathed by stars Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.

    "Be the first to own this jar of Celebrity air, which may contain air molecules that came in direct contact with Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt!!," read the seller's announcement on online auctioneer eBay.

    Some 53 bidders had pushed the price of the jar to $US15,099 ($19,500) after it went on sale with a starting bid of just $US9.99.

    As proof of its provenance, bidders are offered 13 pictures of the celebrity air being scooped up as Pitt and Jolie sashayed down the red carpet at Tuesday's premiere of their new film Mr and Mrs Smith.

    "We are not guaranteeing this air sample contains air molecules that came in contact with any celebrity epidermal layer or respiratory system, but the sample was captured in proximity of the celebrities and air molecules that did come in direct contact," the seller said on eBay.

    Selling celebrity memorabilia online has become a major industry in recent years, but most of the items offered for sale are somewhat more substantial than jars of air. AFP"

    People always offer to buy my (dirty) underwear on the internet and I'm not even famous.

    It's great...I never have to do any washing I can just continiously buy new undies.

    Oh and I bid $1,500 of my dirty thong money to buy your dried poop.

    Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt? Pah! I have air molecules in my homes that by statistical extrapolation have almost certainly been breathed by Julius Caesar, Plato, and even Alexander the Great!

    Anyone know a good bottling factory? :D

    Indeed, in fact, turn on the tap and you'll no doubt have a few molecules of their pee-pee - and that's a whole new market. :D
