Tom,
Sorry to hear about the job situation. Hopefully you will pick up something soon. Meanwhile, fixing bikes will perhaps soothe your soul and give you the satisfaction of a result of your labours. I had a Schwinn Super Sport hanging in my shed for about 15 years. It was Lemon Yellow and I kept it beacuse I had an Opaque Blue one when I was a teenager. Finally decided to fix it up and sell it-just because my shed is so full of bikes that even I can't stand it anymore. What a joy to pull apart, clean up and see the result. I suppose it is like working on older cars that you can repair rather than repace parts.
