Did you ever watch Late Night with Conan O'Brien and wish you had that Gen. Eisenhower coffee mug that just sat oh so daintily on the cusp of your television to decorate your home decor? First of all, if you said yes, you have the gayest living room decor since police raided Paul Reubens' home.
Second of all, here's your chance. Conan's mug and other pieces of the Late Night set have been stripped for parts and put on auction for the House to Home Project, a charity that helps families who have lost their homes to natural disasters.
How I Met Your Mother launches a charity auction

There's a better reason for watching How I Met Your Mother tonight than to see Britney Spears reprising her role as Abby, the receptionist who may or may not be Barney's next conquest. On the episode called Everything Must Go, Lily and Marshall face their financial troubles head on. With Marshall out of his evil corporate job, their future tied up in an apartment that's in desperate need of renovations because it was built on an incline, and Lily's credit card debt nearly $100,000, the Eriksens are in trouble. It's been building for weeks and it reaches a boiling point tonight when they realize everything must go.They set up an online auction at a site called lilyandmarshallselltheirstuff.com. The twist here is that the website auction is for real, reports USA Today (sorry, no link... the story is only in the print edition). The creators of the show have set up the site and will raise money for the Children's Hospital of Los Angeles by selling Lily and Marshall's props and costumes. The auction site will last two weeks. The site is part of charityfolks.com and you can register now to take part once it goes live this evening.
