I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

 There's a guy in Brownsburg In. that makes art from used up race car parts. Cold Hard Art. He makes metal roses that are very cool.
