So, earlier today, Brent Spiner was talking about auctioning off his 400th Tweet. Instead, he posted a Groucho Marx quote. Then:
“You can never go wrong with a good Groucho line. But, I will be auctioning the 500th. Best offer I got-$10. Not nearly enough.”
When I saw this, I posted:
@brentspiner I’ll give you $100 if you’ll tweet me and say hi…but you’ll have to give me your address to send you the money
Literally one minute later, he said:
@etoile Very generous…for an opening bid. Let me think about the parameters. I’ll let everyone know what you’re bidding on soon.
So…I think I might owe Brent Spiner $100. Ha!
Also, one friend immediately said:
@etoile You are a fucking genius. 
And a moment later, another friend:
@etoile omg you win!
So that was kinda awesome. 
As the first of the aforementioned friends, I concur: it -was- kinda awesome.
