About anything you find here on our island is cheap import junk from China.

Possibly when we are in the City next month we can find a real deal type.

For now a little patching still makes for fun...
So, you live in Wal-Mart, huh?

You don't even realize the similarities of the Filipinos (sometimes)



Right click save....


So many of the local kids are truly happy with and old motorcycle tire and a stick to keep it rolling for a toy..

Or tear the snappers off of a crab and put it on a string..

Or stray spiders and put them in a match box.. "spiderman"


Now back to point.. damit!

The tricycle Will have wheels again!

Amber did not care it did not have wheels, she did not care the pedals are lost, the hammock was in the way! damit!

I guess the Chinese that assembled it can't read, but the part is the same either way.

Or maybe the stickers are upside down? same thing..

Name the 7, maybe I should have it inspected by OSHA

Mad props to Amber for being able to ride that thing with only 1 wheel.

I was just making a funny that did go over too well. There was a thread at the other place quite a while ago about someone building a garage I believe and some engineer posted up that he saw several code violations or something to that effect.

Many here are mistaking that for a tricycle.

Obviously its a wheeled stool.
