What proof you may be asking? What better proof than from the Craig Newmark blog itself or himself!

Evidence exhibit # 1

Craig Newmark gets stoned and stares outside his window for hours looking at birds and fantasizes about birds and more particularly female birds giving birth.

Evidence exhibit # 2

Craig Newmark gets high and wonders into the Gaza strip and goes to a farm growing tons of “algae”. Algae meaning “marijuana”. Good cover up Mr. Newmark, very good cover indeed.

Evidence exhibit # 3

Yet another strange photo of Craig Newmark and his fetish with wild birds. I mean seriously, who knows what a “black-headed grosbeaks” looks like. He spends hours going through bird books to learn what kinds of birds he is watching. Mr. Newmark is very rare, very rare indeed. This time Mr. Newmark is calling “marijuana”, “suet” What kind of a man likes to get birds high? I wonder what they would do high? Good question Mr. Newmark! I think Mr. Newmark has probably SEO’d more birds than any other bird watching blog out there. Seriously, do people actually watch birds?

Evidence exhibit # 4

Just like a pot smoking gay jewish man: he sees a fallen tree when people could be injured and takes a picture! “Dude…look at the cool tree in the middle of the street man. It’s like nature reclaiming its rightful land, sort of like the Jews man. Lets go smoke some pot. That was cool.”

Evidence exhibit # 5

Mr. Newmark is launching a new way for news to be disseminated and believed. Instead of letting the biased media make our news the reality, Mr. Newmark plans on empowering journalists around the world to create a “YouTube” news if you will, and mixing in Digg.com components to power the front page. Thus creating a truly democratic news agency. Too bad Mr. Newmark: Digg already has this area covered; good luck. Wait! Maybe Mr. Newmark is creating a Wikipedia so to speak for present day truth around the world. Possibly…but either way, its just like what a gay, jewish, post smoking hippy would do: control the media.

Evidence exhibit # 6

Mr. Newmark loves almond brioche at Amy’s Bread. Amy’s Bread has a four star rating on Yelp. Seems like something a pot smoker would love to eat after a wonderful blunt.

Well I hope you enjoyed my six pieces of evidence that prove Craig Newmark is indeed a pot smoking hipping, and the re-incarnation of Albert Einstein. And Albert Einstein is of course becoming more and more popular every day in the scientific community. I’m just kidding of course, I don’t know Craig Newmark, but I will say this: I’m sorry if I offended you Mr. Newmark and please don’t get mad I did screen captures of your website to make inflammatory remarks about you. Finally, I would like to say that Craig Newmark is the Einstein of the 21st century. I have a feeling that craigslist or ProPublica is going to become an international breakthrough that will help liberate the world’s many illnesses. Whether or not he is gay, jewish, a pot smoking hipping, or the re-incarnation of Albert Einstein; I don’t know - it was just a joke to get YOU to read this blog

A man’s house in Oregon was ransacked after a posting appeared on craigslist stating that his property was up for grabs.  You can view the full article here.  I always enjoy reading the oddities and strange circumstances that craigslist seems to produce.  Craigslist is one of the most heavily visited sites in the United States and growing leaps and bounds internationally.  To read a sad story like this makes one think what other types of scams are going on at craigslist?  I recently reported about a lap top scam that is probably easily bilking dozens of people out of thousands of dollars each month.  Does craigslist face any legal liability or responsibility for the system it manages?  I would certainly contend yes, but Craig Newmark, and his altruistic persona are winning out in court after court case against every law suit.  But the fact that craigslist allows criminals to flourish and innocent home owners to lose valuable possessions opens craigslist up to numerous potential law suits - I think it’s just going to take an attorney with the right “marketing” or spin to present the case to a jury.  Expect settlements or protracted legal battles in the future for Craigslist.
