Seems as if there's a delivery service for everything these days.

Including the Minnesota State Fair.

No, you can't have the CHS Miracle of Birth Center dropped into your living room. But an intrepid bicycle delivery service will pick up and package any food on the Fairgrounds and whisk it to your door.

There's just one restriction: He or she will only pedal within a five-mile radius of the Fairgrounds.

Cost? That's not entirely outlined (for example, does the tab include a general admssion ticket?), but there is an automatic 20 percent service fee.

Check it out the Craigslist ad here, and start turning that craving for deep-fried pickles (or the bounty from the Corn Roast stand, pictured, above) into reality.

As an eviction crisis has seemed increasingly likely this summer, everyone in the housing market has made the same plea to Washington: Send money — lots of it — that would keep renters in their homes and landlords afloat.
