We've written about snot for sale before, and some of you dissed us.
We have another story about someone selling snot -- for real -- and we suspect that those same naysayers will naysay yet again.
Be that as it may... a British "artist" who collected the stuff from his nose for two years and then put what he called the "Bogey Ball" on exhibit is now willing to sell the mass... for $20,000.
The artist, James Robert Ford, calls the bolus "a physical record of all the
different places I have been and people I've met."
Asked about parting with his work of art, Ford is quoted as saying, "It will be hard to let go, but at the same time it's hard not to have any money."
We console him with the fact that he can start on another "Bogey Ball" any time he wants.
As long as he stays wayyyyy over there in England.
