Tuesday curmudgeonly ranting

I saw an old Free Spirit 3-speed at an Estate Sale last weekend, it was in good shape, but nothing really all that special. It should have been the type of sale that one finds bargains at as it was in the middle of nowhere, but this was not the case, a big waste of time, I bought nothing. . Someone had put a hand written sign on the bike that stated it was a Sears & Roebuck bike and ‘Made in the USA’. I believe the first part, the second part not-so-much. And the best part is they wanted $90 for it, fantastic! What an incredible bargain, I could have bought it and sold if for nearly 1/2 that up on campus after I fixed it up.

Also, since it’s Tuesday… How dare those kids ride them new-fangled fixed-gear bicycles around, all whoopin it up and hollerin like they’re having a blast… I swear kids these days got no sense at all.

*edit* oh yeah, Pipe-Down over there on the cassette thread, you can hear that racket all the way over here... !@#$%^&* Bumpuses!
