What makes the story stand out? It's about 9-year-old girl, Caitlin Kelley.(br /)(br /)While the news piece itself lacks any real substance, the premise of the story should be enough to hold the attention of any martial arts fan. Already ranked 4th in her state for submission grappling, the up-and-comer has taken on a fair amount of competitors (boys as well as girls).(br /)(br /)Of course, at her age I was first in my household at grappling for an NES controller.

Well the time to start counting your quarters is nigh, as the coveted artwork went up today and has thus far met the reserve price with a current bid of $50,000.(br /)(br /)The good news? There have only been 10 bidders so far. The bad news? There's still 2 days of auction left. The worst news? I couldn't afford this if there were 2 (i)(b)years(/i)(/b) of auction left.(br /)(br /)At this point I'd have better luck creating my own smash-hit comic book franchise and auctioning the artwork.

It comes off as campy, but it's better than taking itself too seriously.(br /)(br /)It's always a wise policy to stay as tongue-in-cheek as you can when you're making a car commercial centered around a kung-fu film premise starring an obscure martial arts actress and a champion race car driver, at least in our book.
