Pay Me With a Chicken
One of my best pals in high school Matt Cohen used to regale us with tales of his legendary Uncle Marc, a sort of combination comedian, practical joker, con artist and entrepreneur. Oh yes and videographer. I’ll let you judge which of those skill sets come into play in his latest venture, Paymewithachicken.com. I think the name of the site speaks for itself.
