Because I was working the Winter Classic I didn't see this commercial that started trending on Twitter
I had a bug with no gas gauge - instead, it had an emergency tank if you ran out. Also, the heater never worked.
I don't, but in reading up on it, it has many detractors. This is from the Wikipedia article on it:Anybody follow the Whole30 food program?
Strange that the car legacy of one of the worst mass murders in history is the cute little bug.
So because Ted Bundy drove one, that means nobody else should?
Imo it's the best diet ever. I did it for 4 months lost over 40 pounds with only 30 minutes brisk walks after each meal.Anybody follow the Whole30 food program?
What @BMC said. Volkswagen literally means "people's car". It's got a murky history, but so do a lot of car makers. I just think it's odd how we all associate 'bugs' with quirky & fun when they were created in and championed by such a dark time/person in world history. Hilter really had his hands into the beetle.So because Ted Bundy drove one, that means nobody else should?
You're a good dude, Al. I have 4 older righty sticks, but it's probably more to ship them from AZ than they are worth. Plus, knowing kids today, his "backup" is probably a better stick than any of mine.Hi everyone.
I hope this is ok.
If not, mods please delete.
My neighbor is a single mom of 3 who gets no help from her ex.
Her son is a very good varsity HS hockey player who has had bad luck with sticks over the past 3 days....broke 2 new composites, one a Christmas gift and is using an old one right now.
The mom doesn’t have the money for a new one and as much as I’d like to help I really don’t have the extra dough and she’d probably not let me buy a new one anyway.
If anyone has a decent spare that’s just collecting dust, that they’d be willing to part with, I’d be happy to drive 45 minutes or so from the Andover area.
He shoots right.
Thanks and apologies if this is off sides.

I think he was referring to the fact that the Volkswagen was championed by none other than Adolf Hitler, who makes Bundy look like a Sunday school teacher in the mass murder department.
I gave away all my equipment years ago but I'd be happy to amazon something if play it again sports doesn't work out. I don't know what a decent stick runs these days but it's the holidays and I'd rather spend a couple bucks helping someone tangibly than throwing it into some mega charity where it'll barely impact the ground. You can just say I had them/it laying around and wasn't using them/it.Hi everyone.

Happy to take it to PMs if you want to go this route. Just an option.
Thank you so much!
My other neighbor just texted me an hour ago and told me that his nephew is a rep for a sporting goods company and is going to hook him up.
So nice to be reminded how many good people still exist!
Thanks again!
That's awesome. Things go sideways, my PMs are open. Good to know there's people like you around looking out for their neighbors!Thank you so much!

If you need help with the gift card, let me know.Thanks for the kind words.
My daughter just reminded me about Play it Again Sports...
I may rake a ride there tomorrow morning to see what they have used.
Or I may try to talk the wife into getting him a gift card for a couple hundred and tell him it’s an early graduation present.
