"Why she would rather have a mini-van than a whale i don't know, but she's put her foot down. I need to get rid of the whale ASAP and will part with it for free as long as it goes to a good home," Caroline Hertz posts on Craigslist. Surely in this recession this would be a good catch for someone.
UPDATE: Looking around I found a similar ad on Craigslist in many cites. The only variation was the story of how the seller strangely acquired the whale. So, sorry, no whale for sale.
