(CNN) -- A man in northern Idaho says he has seen a massive hand of God in his life, and he is willing to share it with the highest bidder.

Paul Grayhek says the "Hand of God" appeared in his backyard in March.

Paul Grayhek, 52, listed the rock formation he dubbed the "Hand of God Rock Wall" on the online auction Web site eBay. The highest bid was $250 early Sunday, with three days left to go in the auction.

The hand-like formation, approximately 9 feet tall and 4 feet wide, appeared in Grayhek's backyard after a rockfall during Lent on March 8, he said.

The Coeur d'Alene resident said he faced tough times after losing his job, and believed the rock was a sign.

"I prayed between licking my wounds and looking for a job," he said. "We rarely get rockfalls and this formation is 20 feet from my house. It's definitely a symbol of the hand of God in my life."

-----------------------------

Okay ... so ... is this for SALE, or just "being shared with"?
If it's for sale, and it's a rock fall ... that means it's not just one piece, right?
And where does one KEEP a nine foot high rock formation hand of God, anyway? Furthermore, just how big IS this guy's back yard? What's the angle on that photo? is this a cliff, or what?

I sometimes wonder why God spends so much time showing up in toast, vegetables, and rockfalls ... and why whatever it is, it typically ends up on Ebay... I mean, if God said to me: "Hey! Nightowl! I'm going to send you a sign, in the form of a nine foot rock formation" I don't know that my first thought would be "Cool! That'll draw a LOT on Ebay!" I mean ... regifting may be okay in SOME circumstances, but just how, exactly is God gonna feel about this guy's making a PROFIT from it by SELLING it?

So I was cruising craigslist in the free listings, and felt my heart warmed by the number of ads where people were just giving away boxes of food "for people in need." Made me feel good, you know?

Ok So I built this thing last year, I did a crap job on the roof and it leaks, so rebuild the roof and you have a free sweet storage facility! Complete with a roof that raises up so u can walk inside, and it lowers too so you can hide it from your pain in the ass HOA. Features shelves, wood, plastic, love w/e. I Have to have it gone by tomorrow night, bring about 3-4 people and I think if we are super strong/lucky we can pick it up and transfer it over the fence. It weights a weighty amount, I have never lifted it so really we might need a gorilla or crane or w/e. Dont ask me to hold it or say that you might want it, I don't care. Just call if you are ready to come and get it. it is 8x8 and about 5'8" tall, dark wood, white plastic, likes to go running on the beach.

looking over the bounty here id say someone suffering from mall withdrawal. mebbe she was inspired by the facebook story yesterday of a call for clothing for someone who was starting a new job. apparently that went well and now the recipient is doing a pay it forward effort. at first read i thought dkny stuff for 10 bucks? wow. but in looking at it er...kind of paris hiltonish id say. tho someone desparate for designer sun duds might be good to go with this. lol

woodchopping is a good workout, less so the chainsaw tho it sure beats trying to split those big things. i wish i were better at it tho have you seen the carvings people do with chainsaws? thats not me. im more the nerdy chainsawer who revs it up while falling backward hoping to not have it decapitate me in the process.

interesting link. the pix of the desk in that article has a haunted look to it even without the hand.
i was in a cemetery in paris once taking pix of the graves and got to the grave of someone who was once a debunker of the occult but later became a true believer. his grave was surrounded by men in monks robes who blocked my camera shots saying no photos were allowed. my friend and i went over to dom perignones gravesite which was recessed and shot the photos from there when the monk people werent looking. when we got home and had them developed those pix and only those pix had black rings around the photos. who knows why but it sure spooked me...ooooeeeeoooo. lol. i do believe in ghosts!

Perhaps there is an old superstition about used furniture retaining the personality of it's long-time owner?

A little more searching seems to suggest that a superstition originated from the Chinese, or maybe England.
and it makes sense in a physics sort of way. the things we leave behind. what about smell. when someone dies or moves on their scent is the last thing to go. sometimes staying on for years.

Who knows? I've gotta get to work. Enjoy this beautiful March day, everyone!

I don't know if dressers are often haunted, so I tried to google it. This is the only thing I found.
