Blues Legend's Soul for Sale

Like most business owners, Satan occasionally has to take stock of his inventory and make room for newer models -- and with elections taking place in every nook and cranny of this fair land, he's certainly bought up plenty of souls in recent weeks. As such, the Man Downstairs looks to be unloading some of his older purchases -- like the soul of Robert Johnson, which is currently up for just sold for $66 in an auction on eBay.

Legend has it that the blues legend traded his eternal spirit to the devil down at the crossroads -- which, depending on your interpretation, could've be a dusty Mississippi intersection or a corner office in the Big Apple -- for everlasting fame, a deal that didn't end up working out all that well since he died in obscurity just a couple of years later. We're not sure what sort of deal Beelzebub will cut for this exchange, but since he now takes PayPal, perhaps the buyer could work out a package deal including John Bonham's liver and Jim Morrison's little black book as well.

    One day,somebody will regret their decisions.
    These stories are very sad.

    "It is written: 'As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before me; every tongue will confess to God.'"
    Romans 14:11

    "10. that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, 11. and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
    Philippians 2: 10-11
