Are you concerned about new terror threats in the wake of the Christmas attempted attack?


Unemployed and desperate, a 19-year-old Sheboygan man is trying to sell one of the only things he owns _ his name. Calvin Gosz has put the rights to give him a new name on eBay. He said if people can have a name like Mercedes for free, "why wouldn't McDonald's pay for me to have Ronald McDonald as a name?" Gosz said he moved to Wisconsin from Florida in September. He's filled out more than a dozen job applications, but so far no luck.

Of his decision to go on eBay, he said, "I guess it just kind of goes to show the desperation of some people to try and get some money if they can't find work."

The minimum bid is $5,000 _ but so far there's no takers.
