Ok, so technically it isn’t “worthless” since the “Buy It Now” price is a cool 1.5 Million
Though the boat has no official offers listed on the site currently, potential buyers have six days to mull the purchase of a big ass boat that is…

Apparently that stuff doesn’t make any money and that’s just not going to cut it, so the city has worked with the fancy shopping center to preemptively block any nonprofits from getting in the mix.
Jesse Bogan has the details at STLToday –

Apparently it’s someone’s job to “survey” the national gas prices over at the Associated Press and that sad little bastard has some shocking news for you: Gas prices have gone up 5.23 cents in the last two weeks! Aaahhhh! Quick lets go to war with someone…wait no…maybe it’s the President’s fault…or bears. Wait wait wait, be cool.

Guess which one St. Louis is in that metaphor?
The buddy-cop comedy is set in New York, so the Big Apple gets the first bite, on Aug. 4. But the next day, Will and Mark will jet to St.
