>>Thx. It's a bike shop in a part of town where there's kind of a dearth.
Sounds cool. I wish I had the guts to do something like that.
Dakota, I wasn't really thinking "living simply" in terms of environmental impact (although there's nothing wrong with taking that into consideration). I was thinking more in terms of rediscovering what's really important in life. What does it cost to sit around and play cards with the family? A lot less than a movie, and it's better for us. That kind of thing.
Those are interesting points Ted makes. I hadn't really considered the big picture. I like Swampy's idea since it's always bothered me it's cheaper to buy new things than fix the old. I feel like repair work is more fulfilling than sales anyway. kj.
