Ok, I already wrote most of this on the board, but I wanted to put it here as well...
"I'm not sure why this made me so happy but...
I was walking home (NYC) and I passed a radio shack, it was around 11PM so the store was closed and for some reason they were getting rid of a lot of their toy-like stuff. So they just set the stuff out in boxes on the street...
I scored a sweet looking foot-tall robot, 2 remote control monster trucks (without the remotes, but I always wanted one as a kid, so it sort of completes that long forgotten wish), a purple hippopotamus flashlight thingee and this kid's keyboard that has a fake turntable on it!
It's so stupid, but it made me feel so good to find these "things". It's like the universe was saying "buck up camper, things will get better..here's a monster truck and a robot to prove it."
