THE LAST REMAINING SURVIVOR OF THE TITANIC IS AUCTIONING OFF A BUNCH OF MEMORABILIA TO PAY HER NURSING HOME FEES:

When the Titanic hit an iceberg and sank in 1912, Millvina Dean was only two months old. Now, at the age of 96, Millvina is that last remaining survivor of the Titanic disaster. Anyway, Millvina announced yesterday she'll be auctioning off memorabilia from the Titanic . . . in order to pay her nursing home fees.

According to Millvina, "I'm selling [the memorabilia] now because I have to pay these nursing home fees and I'm selling anything that I think might fetch some money. The fees are quite expensive. The more money I can get from the auction the better."

So what kind of stuff is Millvina selling? So far, the only item that's been mentioned is a 100-year-old suitcase filled with clothes that were given to Millvina's family when they arrived in New York after they were rescued. The auction will be held on Saturday in Devizes, England (--which is about 75 miles west of London). (Yahoo News)
