Good news, I was in LBS returning a borrowed tool; a man walked in, said he had two kid's bikes he wanted to go to a good home. They went in my car and within 15 minutes, I found two little girls through my church's Christmas outreach. All I've got to do is clean them up and lube them. LBS adjusted everything on them while I was running errands, free.

Not 30 minutes after that, a lady called, and has 3 more that I'm going to get. She got my number from the first guy. Make that 5 children this year who will be able to have the fun we're still having after all these years.

Make Sheldon smile.
And a nice boost to your karma. +1 Robbie, keep it up.
