craigslist as a social barometer

i'm trying to unload my stuff using ebay and craigslist. it's cool that craigslist allows you to give away stuff by listing it under "free". I noticed that the FREE listing illustrates some basic differences between long island and virginia beach. For free on long island, you can get:

  • a bed
  • end tables
  • a couch
  • a graco high chair
  • a boat

The residents of virginia beach, on the other hand, are offering the following freebies:

  • a cat, orange, female
  • a cat, orange, male
  • a rooster
  • seashells
  • dirt
