List them on eBay with the word "steampunk" in the title, you'll get way more than they're worth to actual people.

Nice mate, I just did a quick EBay search under "Antique Safety Glasses" and got a few hits, looks like they're worth anything from $3.50 upwards. Cheers, Terry. ;D

I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong.
