You Never Know What You Might Get Paid For By Scott Ryan The very first piece of intel I ever published on Qassia was a little bit of sarcasm called "Goodbody? Maybe. Good Idea? Not So Much." In it I posted my reaction to a funeral home called Goodbody Mortuary as well as a couple photographs to prove that they'd actually had the poor taste to give their business such a name. That was late January, 2008 and I didn't think anything of it after that. You can imagine my surprise when, out of the blue, I received an email offering to purchase reprinting rights to one of those photos! The woman who contacted me worked for a publishing company finding relevant images for their books. She wanted this for a writing textbook and I can only assume it would sit somewhere in a chapter about why you need to pay attention to names. In the end I got four hundred dollars for a photo I snapped for a giggle! I'm no photographer and barely know how to operate my camera, but now I'm giving thought to wandering around the town looking for a few more visual ironies. After all, you never know what you might get paid for.
