a new bike!

sadly, my old bike got stolen. even more sad, it wasnt really my bike. it was my sisters. she got it over in japan, when her first husband was stationed there. it was her bike, but she wasnt using it, so i was. it got stolen about a week and a half ago. ever since, me and dad have been looking to replace it. dad, who works out in tooele, has been keeping an eye out for bikes there, all over, while i've been looking a bit closer to home. he found a really nice one, at a pawn shop there in tooele. ony $30, for a really really expensive bike. quite the deal. even better, now i have a bike
again. huzzah! it has front and rear suspention, and...a whole bunch of different gears, and really nice breaks and everything. only need to get a lock for it now (a kickstand might not go amiss either). hurrah!

I thought it said in the bible an eye for an eye. Someone stole your bike so go steal someone else's. Isn't that how it works?

now, if it werent a commandment not to steal, that might work. though, i dont think i could steal one that nice. not around my house thanks.

hoorah, happy new bike. (Bike locks are very good things.) How'd it get stolen? (Sitting out at Mom and Dad's house, or were you elsewhere with it not locked?)

it was at mom and dad's house, along with all the other bikes. we were going to go for a bike ride one night, and suddenly we noticed "oh, its not there. it was there just monday..." funny thing is, none of the other bikes that were sitting out (we had about three others) got stolen. just mine.

Odd... Mayhaps they didn't think the others were worth stealing. :p
